Ship Engines/Size

[Repo Man]

I tried playing with the engines too, with some interesting results.

My first attempt was to increase the size of low tech engines. This causes the AI to bug out and the game hangs.

My next attempt was to decrease the supply carried for low tech engines. I made the first engines carry 50, second 200 and third generation 300. The result was that no AI could leave the home system until well into the game. The minimum supply for engines seems to be 300 if you want to encounter anything.
