If your AI players are difficulty level "hard" (use 'list' in 
the server to check), then this is a feature: thats an deliberate
advantage for the AI players on hard difficulty.

If your AI players are difficulty level "normal" or "easy" ("easy" 
is the default), then this could be due to a bug which is already
fixed in stable version 1.11.4 - please try that.  (How were the
AI players created?  Eg, using 'create', or 'set aifill' ?)

(Unfortunately not necessarly, because of the combination of all
possible parameters which could have an effect :-(
