Whoa, does this mean that if I build an AI and give them only Colony ships they will colonize the freak out of their homes system but not ever step outside?

That's great. I know exactly what to do with that.

What if I don't give them Attack Ships, but instead Boarding and Kamakazi Ships with attack-style designs?

Would this allow them to have an agressive and built up fleet wihtout ever making it out of their home system?

If they are given star charts, assuming they accept, will they follow those charts out of their home system and expand along the given route?

There is so much possibility here. If this works it means I can have a Bottled Demon AI. Don't let them out!

[edit] What about Carriers or Drone Carriers or Sat Layers? Do these explore while the AI is in any mode?
