Default ? on AIs

Are there any AIs out there who actually design & build Baseships?

Do the AIs try to put 6 engines on a dreadnaught, and just quit when they reach the max engines per ship?

Where are the AI files for the default races located?


For P&N v2, the propulsion system will change, so I need to know how many engines AIs will try to add, and how to change them if things go wrong. Also, I don't want the AIs to try building battlemoons improperly

Don't know about your other questions, but the default AI files are in \Space Empires IV\Ai

Oops. I already found that. I meant the AIs that come with the game.

The default stuff has nothing for researching the racial techs, so the Phong in my games are obviously getting their research and design plans elsewhere...

The AI, can't say for sure they were default with all the great mods, will definately build Baseships. I think it just takes a long time for most of them to research Baseships. Try a high tech start to see their designs.
