Then I have another question for you - do you play temporal technology often? The only reason I ever play it is for the space yards. The only temporal weapon I ever use is the shield accelerator cuz it outranges the standard shield depleter.

In multiplayer games, think is not so easy try to play using special traits... because you must survive until you could take advantage of it (IMHO).
About the Temporal Tech itself, think not only the space yards are usefull, because the other 2 facilities are very good (the combat bonus are great defensive facilities, and the happiness bonus are the best in the game). Also, think excluding the Temporal Shifter, the others weapons are very good (although expensive to research).
Finally, about AI attacking planets, well, for sure the SEIV AI never will play like an human player. But as Raging Deadstar said, using TDM, High Difficulty and Max Bonuses, sometimes you can get a decent challenge.
