Facilities have higher priority than units, although sometimes if a planet has a Space Yard it might push vehicles ahead. Did you notice if there was a SY present?

Re: Ver 1.74 patch with Balance Mod?

Assuming the SE5 patches don't introduce bugs, it's usually quite fine.

Re: Balance Mod

Colony ships are never sent to a system that has a known enemy presence, regardless of whether or not it's marked as a system to avoid.

Re: Balance Mod

I've posted the v1.14b batch for the Balance Mod for use with the new v1.74 SE5 patch. I threw in a number of AI additions from the forthcoming BM v1.15 update as a bonus.

Re: Using fleets

To accomplish different objectives (such as capture planet) or to organize a group of ships to maximize their strategy (such as missile ships at max range).

Re: Using fleets

You wouldn't really do that. You'd through a couple of the PD ships in with each task force instead. The goal is just to have the PD ships interspersed amongst the other combat ships.

Re: How can I change the starting game year?

That setting doesn't effect the game date, but rather the rate at which the system animations occur.

Re: The Future of Space Empires IV

You could argue that releasing the SE4 source code and the subsequent free user compiled versions would hurt sales of any future Space Empires title. So I could see some reluctance on MM's part if...

Note that the Point-Defense Ship design type only exists in a couple of mods and not in the stock game.

In response to your earlier question, It's more or less like SE4, in that your PD ship needs...

Re: Orders/formations: fleets, task forces...

No. It's not based on design type, but some sort of internal game classification presumably based on component abilities or vehicle hulls.

Re: Random Questions

You also get a facility that increases your combat accuracy for all ships and units in a solar system.

In the Balance Mod, TSYs can outproduce normal SYs by 50% at max tech.
