Hi, i'm wondering if the ai can use jump gate tech if it gets it's hands on it, eg. would it use a jump drive to get to another sector or would it just move normaly?

You probibly have discused this before, (it is a major point for the game) but...

I'm thinking about this because i was wondering if you could implement it so the game starts off with no warp points and you have to research jump points and jump drives but have jump drives which are cheeper and smaller than the one you have now, have it a low level tech which the ancients have allready and others can research quite easly. At the moment i tried to re-create a Earth battle cruiser, jump drive and all. It ended up costing me 64,000 minerals just to build, becase of how much jumpdrives cost.
You could make it so some races have better jump drives than others, in one b5 episode it's said that the white star ships have a jump drive even though other ships of it's size don't, they use this to their tatical advantage and so should you.

I'll be back on soon to carry on but for now any responce?
