Probe takes too long to move

Ever since the new software came in, other than the beginning and the end of the game, preobe takes way to long to make a move. Also, the decisions it makes has not improved.When it should be aggressive, it’s not.

The Game Cheats

That's the only explanation for Probe to usually know the exact location of my pieces especially Spy. This is a new development I started noticing over the last couple months AND it's only during certain blocks of time. My read on this is that at times it's happening it continues thru several games. And it's like Probe has access to my game layout (it knows where my pieces are). I've seen it maneuver around my bombs that haven't been revealed yet and watched it send it's Scout across the board to take out my Spy before it could possibly know it's a Spy.
I'm not making this stuff up. I've been playing this game daily for many years. I started playing Stratego in middle school. I invite the Dev to offer an explanation for what I'm asserting.
