The all-knowing God saw that all people were evil, except for Noah and his family, God told Noah not only to build the Ark but, also to preach to the people of repentance. 100 years Noah preached and no one listened, I do not believe they were going to change and God knew they were not, He gave them a chance to change for 100 years even though He knew they would not, thus the flood as the punishment of His judgement. No one should question His judgement, would you give your children 20 years to take out the trash after you asked them to. I doubt you are that patient and I know I'm not.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
