You are running from the facts
God has plans
He is seen planning
He thinks
You failed to defend the idea God does not think
Psalm 92:5 (KJV 1900) — 5 O LORD, how great are thy works! And thy thoughts are very deep.
Isaiah 55:8 (KJV 1900) — 8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, Neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.

Easy, like where, when, and what. He did that when He said " Let's make man in our image".
According to biblical accounts, God’s statement “Let us make man in our image” Genesis 1:26, is a declaration of His intention to create humanity in a unique way. This phrase suggests a partnership or consultation between God and other divine entities, often interpreted as the Word (Jesus) and the Spirit (Holy Spirit).

Yep
That in no way addresses my question.
How does a omniscient God plan something when He has always known plan?
How does a omniscient God plan something having always known?
You give it a whirl 40 years. How does a omniscient God plan something He has always known would occur. You two dodgers need 7 more dodgers and you will have your own baseball team.
Ask the scriptures you ignore
God has plans
He is seen planning

The scripture are all the proof needed
God has plans
(2001) and that nation then turns from the bad; about the bad things I'd planned, I will then change My mind!
(ERV) But if the people of that nation change their hearts and lives and stop doing evil things, I will change my mind and not follow my plans to bring disaster to them.
(GW) But suppose the nation that I threatened turns away from doing wrong. Then I will change my plans about the disaster I planned to do to it.

He can also change His plans.
The Lord said, “Abraham, I have heard that the people of Sodom and Gomorrah are doing all kinds of evil things. 21Now I am going down to see for myself if those people really are that bad. If they aren't, I would like to know.”
The LORD replied, “If I find 50 good people in Sodom, I will save the city to keep them from being killed.” Abraham answered, “I am nothing more than the dust of the earth. Please forgive me, LORD, for daring to speak to you like this. But suppose there are only 45 good people in Sodom. Would you still wipe out the whole city?” “If I find 45 good people,” the LORD replied, “I won't destroy the city.” “Suppose there are just 40 good people?” Abraham asked. “Even for them,” the LORD replied, “I won't destroy the city.” Abraham said, “Please don't be angry, LORD, if I ask you what you will do if there are only 30 good people in the city.” “If I find 30,” the LORD replied, “I still won't destroy it.” Then Abraham said, “I don't have any right to ask you, LORD, but what would you do if you find only 20?” “Because of them, I won't destroy the city,” was the LORD's answer. Finally, Abraham said, “Please don't get angry, LORD, if I speak just once more. Suppose you find only 10 good people there.” “For the sake of 10 good people,” the LORD told him, “I still won't destroy the city.” After speaking with Abraham, the LORD left, and Abraham went back home.
The Lord said, “Abraham, I have heard that the people of Sodom and Gomorrah are doing all kinds of evil things. 21Now I am going down to see for myself if those people really are that bad. If they aren't, I would like to know.”

Conditions placed on man and God changing His mind and plans reveals His interaction in real time. This refutes his position as everything is fixed from eternity past by His eternal decree
This is the Open Theist position for sure.
Scripture and the scriptural position
Jeremiah 18:7–10 (ESV) — 7 If at any time I declare concerning a nation or a kingdom, that I will pluck up and break down and destroy it, 8 and if that nation, concerning which I have spoken, turns from its evil, I will relent of the disaster that I intended to do to it. 9 And if at any time I declare concerning a nation or a kingdom that I will build and plant it, 10 and if it does evil in my sight, not listening to my voice, then I will relent of the good that I had intended to do to it.
Open theism is not the scriptural position. It certainly was not the position of the early church. Or the church of the middle ages.
