Racial Trait Creation Problems

I seems the AI looks for the ability and doesn't check if any other component satisfies it. I tried making solar sails have the solar supply generation ability and the AI insisted on building 2 solar sails. If two components have the same ability but different values the AI seems to choose the higher value, in my example it chose 2 solar sails if the solar sail generated more supply than the solar panel.
You could try giving the master computer the extra ability and add it to the Borg Tech tree. The AI may not choose it because there is no value to increase.

Nitram,
I had given Master Computer regenerative ability but it still ignored it. I've given up on it and have elevated Computers on the Borg research instead. I figured that the micro repair bays and regenerative structure (armour) that I have given the Borg, pretty much replicate what I want the Borg to be like.

Sounds like you are creating a whole new tech area for them?
Cool, can't wait for it!
