All the AIs should be picking the Normal trait...
If you right-click on one of them, and check out which traits they have purchased, what does it say?

The Pirate and Nomad traits are there for the human player to choose, and result in a totally different game. It basically turns into an up-close-and-personal game of survival at any cost.

When you are playing as a Pirate or Nomad against properly working normal AIs, you can and should use any cheap tricks you can come up with. Tactical combat is a must, and capturing ships for tech is very important.

I clicked on about a half dozen and they were all normal traits. How do you account though, for the fact that not a single one is colonizing. This is about turn 56.

[Suicide Junkie]

Hrm...
The colony ships don't have a 3life-support requirement, do they?

[ArchAngel7]

Yes they do.

[Suicide Junkie]

That would be why they're not building colony ships then...
I didn't think that little test tweak had gone beyond my test game with Fyron.

[ArchAngel7]

What do I need to change in the data/ship file? Make it 1 life support?

[Suicide Junkie]

That should do it.

I'm on dialup right now, so I'll have the official link corrected by tomorrow.
