Default Re: AI Mines research (bug?)

Okay, just one example to get my point across.
I just looked at my savegame. It is currently in a stage where the AI is researching Mines3 instead of Light Cruisers due to the override. The current design for the mine sweeper has seven mine sweeping components (all engines and mine sweeping), so it can sweep 14 mines. If the research for mines3 is finished it will sweep 21 mines. If the AI would research Light Cruisers like it is supposed to, it would build a new mine sweeper with ten components, thus able to sweep 20 mines. So that equals out pretty much. Problem is, of course, that Mines3 costs 150000 (225000 on medium) and Light Cruisers costs 40000 (80000 on medium). So if the AI would stick to my research plan it would get the same effect for only 27% (35%) of the price plus the effect that not only mine sweepers are improved (which I hadn't really in mind when researching Light Cruiser), but all other ships as well.

PS: I hate this, get rid off it. IMHO, it's not a feature, but a bug.
