Re: Planetary weapons problem.
The 'Damage to Kill One Population' ratio does NOT affect damage to cargo on the planet. It affects ONLY the population. This is the problem with planetary weapons that we have discussed before. You should not be able to kill large amounts of population with anti-ship weapons, AND you should not be able to pulverize planetary defenses with anti-population (area effect) weapons. The current system in inadequate.
As for the non-attack stategy, that is odd. In my experience the AI is always incredibly stupid about just rushing in and attacking. I guess you customized something that has had an odd effect. Check the strategy used by those ships very carefully. It doesn't have "dont' fire on planets" set to true or anything?
