Description

The AI sometimes takes actions that don't affect the board state, but cost time or resources, even when better actions that would affect the board state are also available. This should be avoided.

Since these types of issues can be intermittent or difficult to reproduce - and are also low priority - I'm just combining them all into one tracking issue, rather than testing to see which still occur. Some issues listed here may already be fixed.
