Do AI races build mining ships?
If I make the changes Baron did,will the AI also take advantage of the changes?
I'm conserned the changes will only benefit me.

The AI does not remote mine. You c ould tell it to build remote mining ships, but I doubt that it would know how to use them.

I think making a supply component 10kt instead of 20kt makes sense,and giving it cargo ability(set to zero)is a great idea also. But will the AI utilize both of these changes,and benefit from them?
I don't want to change anything that will only benefit me.

Baron watch out for those engines. I did that mod too and the AI used the engines instead of supply storage units when they researched them because they have larger supplies than the supply storage unit level 1. I started getting AI designs with 7 engines. Even though this isn't allowed the AI still somehow could build ships with 7 engines because it just looked at the supply capibility and not the engine requirement when building the ships.

Yep, I saw Posts about that. I also changed supply storage to be 600/800/1000 so that would not happen.
