AI to use baseships in game

It does if you tell them to construct them in the AI vehicle construction file.

In support of Mac, I too would like to see a massively destructive race, one that most AI's hate too. One that can NOT make treaties with anyone...In the files it says that the Xi'Chung were thought to be the creation of another race, how about the 'parents' show up to see how the kids are?

That and the addition of a few new races that use combined tech.(ie a psychic/organic race, a religious/crystal race etc, or heck even a temporal/organic/psychic race

). But the new races I would gladly pay for in expansion pack form.

oh yeah, one Last thing. PLEASE NO RTS, the reason I love games like this is the TURN based strategy. RTS is sweeping the game genre as it is, even the developers of Moo3 are going RTS for some parts of it. If this is implemented please make it OPTIONAL only. Or go like Baldurs gate series and choose where the game pauses.
just thoughts.......

I'm in for any new races. Anything that adds more flavor.

BTY have you voted for the civil war idea yet? Thanks for your time

Option for Orbiting planets/asteroids (sectors that are moving on the system map; circulating the star - very much like ships automatically do in a black hole system).

The only real-time game I've kept on my HD is Red Baron II. I think being forced to finish game-time months' worth of strategic planning in real-time minutes is absurd. Time limits are only useful to keep live human vs. human games moving. If MM wants to tackle adding real-time play, it definitely should be optional.

For the AI to be smarter when building ship componets or facilities that have more than one ability.

For instance, if you tell the AI to build a facility that has the abilities of a PORT and a facility with the abilities of a SHIPYARD, and you have a "multi"-facility with both abilities... it will build TWO of the "multi"-facilities, NOT one!

Same thing happens for componets (although care would have to be taken with supply storage and cargo space, perhaps adding new lines for both of these abilities).
