Default my AI dont do what it should!

I start to really hate this construction_vehicle file... Is the AI supposed to follow the instructions in it ?

to understand the in and out of it, I set a very simple game :

I put in the file just two entries for all AI states, which are:

entry 1 : have at least 2 colony ships
entry 2 : 5 attack ships per planet

So initially my AI build 2 colony ships and then proceed to build 3 attack ships (escorts class). When she colonize a system, she rebuild a colony ship. Fine.

Now she have the planetary shipyard iddle, with a low maintenance usage (coming from something like 5 escorts build). Have a huge stock of minerals. Why ??? Doing nothing except for the occasional rebuilding of a colony ship, and also a new attack ship. In now way she try to crank as fast as possible attack ships (in the general settings, she is supposed to stop building at 90% maintenance).

Can somebody give me a pointer? I want the AI to crank attack ships like mad until she reaches the max maintenance percentage, but to no avail. She follows very loosely the entries.
