need help

By reading the appropriate AI_Design_Creation.txt file, which hopefully has been set up to create proper ship designs. You can either try to work with the Minimum Speed and Desired Speed settings, which are rather annoying to deal with when you have a non-stock propulsion system, or just add misc abilities to manually control the exact number of engines on the ship design. Have it so that the AI adds as many components with the Standard Ship Movement ability as it needs, then add the Extra Movement Generation component (warp core in STM) to get extra movement. It is best to make these Misc Ability 1 and Misc Ability 2 so that the AI will always be able to add them as the first Misc Abilities (after required C&C components and the other types of components that it adds before Misc Abilities)
