AI ship size building

[thorfrog]

How do you get the AI to build multiple ship sizes? It seems to only go to the biggest ship model only. How about if you want a race to create lts of smaller ships? Help?

The simplest solution is..don't tell them to research more ship construction Can't build em if they don't have em.

You can set the max size for a certain design in the DesignCreation file. For different sizes at the same time you can use different max sizes for defense and attack ships. Those will not share the same fleet, though. For different ship sizes in the same fleet you can use the boarding ship (they get included into attack fleets quite well). The boarding ship doesn't actually needs to have marines, you can make it any design you like and set the default strategy to optimum range (or whatever).

Hope that helps .
