Hey Dogscoff,
WP monster: yeah, that would be cool if it worked, but I have my doubts. Unfortunately there is no minister for "wandering about aimlessly"
. As I said earlier, the monsters will behave like a "normal" AI. That's one of the major restrictions with doing monsters with this workaround.
Intel: I have already taken care of this with a similar method as you described (high intel production and only defensive intel). The planet cannot ever be taken by humans, so the monster facilities can have truly insane power.
