Default Re: Would it be possible to edit the following AI parameters?

The problem that I have with refueling colonizers is that they won't deviate even slightly from their path to refuel, even if there is a resupply depot in the system they are in. I have changed most of the AI's that I have put together to have a very high priority for resupply, but the colonizers won't use them unless they depot just happens to be on the path that they are taking.

I made a suggestion that if a colonizer was in the yellow or red on its supply status, the AI should check at the beginning of its move to see if there is a supply depot in the system it is in. If so, just insert a move to the resupply depot at the top of its command queue. Then, it would move to resupply, then continue on its mission. So far, though, that hasn't been implemented.
