Default The Cluk Ruk are Putting Supply Bays on LT Crusiers, How do I make them stop?

Seriously,
Is there a mod to the Neutrals files that will stop this desgin?
Another race put Combat Sensors in a Sat with CSMs. Is there anyway to assist them?

"What's wrong w/ supply bays?"

The Cluk-Ruk Republic is a neutral. They never leave their system.. no need for supply bays.

You could mod Default_AI_DesignCreation.txt and remove the Supply Storage entry from Miscellaneous Abilities.

The satellites are a harder problem; if you remove Combat to hit Offense Plus, they won't use them on direct fire sats, either.

I'm puzzled as to why they're even building missile sats, though; all the weapon families listed in the sat design are direct fire.

You can add AI_DesignCreation.txt files into neutral race dirs.

Keywords: Gryphin > AI > Mod > Supply > Bay

An example of how I might have made this thread easier to find.

If you are playng SE Gold: Make two independent satelite designs in designcreation file: One with direct-fire and sensors, another with CSM and armor. Designs should have different names. Then edit construction_vehicles.txt file: duplicate every call for satellite construction and replace "type = satellite" with "satellite-CSM" and "satellite-DUC" or whatever names you chhose. You may also decrease the amount to be build or AI will build twise as many satellites as before.
