The computer only builds monolith facilities on a farming colony if its monolith facilities produce more organics than its organic farms. Since organic farm 3s produce more organics than monolith facility 3s, this almost never happens (although in a no-warp-point game the computer researches stellar manip early, so it does happen). The same is true for mineral miners and radioactive extractors.

If you edit the config files so that monolith 3s produce more than 1000 of each resource type, then in the late game the computer will build lots of monolith 3s (and never build the resource-specific facilities again).

Thanks SunDevil.

Also,if the AI has a military colony what will it build on it?

If you are talking about my files, I've combined the shipyards and military installation together. The military base builds a shipyard, some cargo containers, fleet training, planet shields, intelligence facilities, maybe some mining facilities and some null and space defenses against those weapons.

Yes yours SunDevil.

Will the AI make 30% mining,and 15% organics and radioactive colonies????

I always have very few organics followed closely by radioactives.
I always have tons of mining followed by research and then military.

Shouldnt the AI use the same percentage as I do?

In the overal grand scheme of things the ai should build 30% mining and 15% organics and radioactives. No the ai has their on files and only builds\does\acts\fights what the ai text files tell it to do. I changed these files so the ai would act more human, by building smarter.

I'm using my mod,which uses 1-10 planet systems.

The AI is currently setup for just a 9 planet systems.

How will the AI know what to build with a low planet system?
