Re: Ministers as Ship Designers - Good or Bad?
The ship design minister is actually the only one that you have a very high degree of control over. It depends totally on the contents of the DesignCreation file for your race, or the default one if you don't have one for your race. Some of the modders have managed to make the AI design ships very nearly as good as a human would design. If we had the same level of detail in scripting available in the tactical combat stategies we'd probably be facing a really tough AI by now. If we had the same level of detail avilable in the diplomacy minister we'd have some really distinctive AI personalities and some really exciting games.
