Default Re: AI modding: AI only builds small ships while designing big ones

another AI modding topic.

I have a problem with my AIs. They design both small and big ships, but when it comes to constucting big ones, it lacks.

Again not knowing the MOD, I would guess you have all the ships Design Type := Attack Ship.
And your Vehicle Construction File only is calling Attack Ships and this will give you the results mentioned and if the Ships are listed Smaller to higher displacement - with tiny at top of that AI Design File.

List the Ships as mentioned; however, name each design individually and Call them individually from the Vehicle Construction File only if you want multiple AI Hull Classes in continuied service.

The AI Construction_Vehicles File will call your intended Vehicle from its Design ( Name := or Design Type := )

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

Reference - Example only

Race_AI_DesignCreation
Name := Base Ship
Design Type := Attack Base
Vehicle Type := Ship
Default Strategy := Optimal Firing Range
“~”

Name := Flag Ship
Design Type := Attack Ship
Vehicle Type := Ship
Default Strategy := Optimal Firing Range
“~”

Name := Battleship
Design Type := Attack Ship
Vehicle Type := Ship
Default Strategy := Optimal Firing Range
“~”

“~”
“~”

Name := Attack Frigate
Design Type := Attack Ship
Vehicle Type := Ship
Default Strategy := Optimal Firing Range
“~”

Race_AI_Construction_Vehicles File
AI State := Infrastructure
Num Queue Entries := 41
Entry 2 Type := Base Space Yard
Entry 5 Type := Defense base
Entry 6 Type := Defense Ship
Entry 7 Type := Attack Frigate
Entry 8 Type := Attack Ship
Entry 10 Type := Battleship
Entry 11 Type := Flag Ship
Entry 12 Type := Boarding Ship
Entry 13 Type := Mine Sweeper
Etc.
