The json thing is what makes it particularly surprising.

It’s literally ’gameconstants.js’ with an item list that has a .name string and a .armor value that it could look up. But when I pointed it to the file and told it which row to read from, still chose to make something up instead of read the data designed to be read by computers.

I do like how your ai tries to cover for its buddies with lies about there not being any documentation online. Because pointing AIs to a specific page and asking them to read the numbers there is a known trap.
