Mottlee,

Down-load this file and it should fix your Proportions Prob.

1047071210.zip

1: Unzip, copy and paiste the Amonkrie text file into [Proportions/pictures/races/amonkrie ] folder.
2: Load save game you posted; In game (game menu\players) click on Amonkrie this will give you the opportunity to work there empire; play your turn, DO NOT attack planet yet ! end turn when ready.
3: You are now presented with the Amonkrie Empire. Scrap all there infantry, they don�t have many planets and they currently have no troop transports to jettison�. Important: Add (Planetary weapons 10k tech) and move it to the top of there research Queue�

Optional decision here is now needed by you� Since you scraped all there infantry I recommend YOU send yourself thru the Amonkrie a Trade research or better agreement; now, while you can control there actions and you agree to it on your following turn; so they may build there planet Infantry back up�
Then crush them after a given amount of turns have passed, or they break it.

Before ending the Amonkrie turn, re-click players for Amonkrie�.

Next turn they will start to auto design and your good to go�

JLS, what did you do to fix it???

Mottlee, if you want to preserve fog of war, you could have another player do what JLS suggests for you. I'd even be willing to do it, if you email me the current turn. I could give the AI a few ideas by playing a turn for each of them, and you might get a surprise or two out of it.

Mottlee , Pvk

I wanted to tinker some more beyond the fix...

But I would like to have two races, UFP Federation and Grone Hive. Mottlee could you upload them for me...

Also Mottlee, are the other basic races standard Proportions races?

Hey guys,

So what is the secret fix?

I'm using a modified Version of Proportion and would like to head this issue off at the pass if I can.

Thanx,

Talenn

Removing shield generation from the infantry designs used by the AI, I think. I haven't studied JLS' files yet, but I think this was the trick.
