I don't think AI works well in 10 homeworld start even with high AI bonus - Construction_vehicles.txt will need major changes, like increasing all "must have" by at least an order of magnitude ! AI will simply underperform with this game setup.

Well, I decided to start more slowly and do the one planet way. I guess you got to take those baby steps first before you can run a marathon.

I can't remember the name of the race, but it was pretty quick in starting to kick my butt. I think in turn 3 or 4. And since this was my first time playing Proportions, I wasn't quire ready for that. So I started another game with just one planet to feel my way around the game.

One planet start is the way to go. Just don't forget to upgrade to prop 2.53 and lmy atest AIs scattered all around this forum before PvK pull them all together

I do have 2.53, and I'll keep looking for those AI's. But PVK was right. In single player mode, it does take a long time to do things.
