Default Re: AI is BETTER??

Mephisto do you edit the default construction vehicles.txt file in the AI folder to do that? I wonder because the default strategies.txt in the AI folder used the correct settings for troop transports but it wasn't being used. The one in the data directory was used instead and it had an incorrect secondary strategy.

Hopefully if they expand a bit more they will have more resources to spend to maintain a larger fleet. At least thats how I do it so we will see.

Actually I almost never use planet utilization either unless I get it from an ancient ruin. I start in low tech usually and by the time I get around to researching that tech I usually am 5 times as powerful as the nearest AI at least and have so many ships its a pain to manage them all. Sometimes one turn will take over an hour at that time. I am considering uping the cost of larger ship hulls and maybe some of the higher end components, I could also increase the expense of the larger weapons mounts to reduce the amount of larger ships in the late game.
