Confused...Construction Vehicle

Entry 2 Type := Attack Ship

Entry 2 Planet Per Item := 50 <---what does this mean?

Entry 1 Must Have At Least := 2 <---- 2 per what? planet? system?

Also if a MOD has different types/sizes, eg defense fighter/light fighter/attack fighter...can I differentiate by calls in this file? I really would like to get rid of kamikaze fighters except for a couple races in B5 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

I could, if I felt like it, do calls for individual ship sizes, right?

and yes , I DID search....though admitedly hastily

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">this means that one ship is built for every 5 planets.
100 would mean 1 ship for every 10 planets, 2 would mean 5 for each planet, and so on...

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">yes, you can do that. but only in SE4 Gold. seriously from an AI point of view I would recommend doing the mod in Gold. The AI behaves much better, many bugs are fixed, and you can do some things that are not possible in SE classic.

Yep. Yep. Yep. And yep, Gold is much better for modding, and for playing.
