Space Food Empires!

Greetings!

I'm running a bit late with the next patch which I had originally intended to get out yesterday. Although I've got the AI using planets more effectively in addition to building units and ships, the main delay is establishing the specific research and design files for each race. It's not all that difficult, but it is time consuming as I can't just copy and paste without some significant editing.

On a second note, as mentioned elsewhere, the 'pollution' effect using negative values for the planet conditions ability does not work. However, I think I will continue to keep the unhappiness aspect from industrial facilities in the mod. Right now, the AI doesn't do all that well with it as I have set up the facility queues with happiness facilities to be built after every 5 industrial ones - but it turns out the planets are rioting beforehand! Anyhow, I'll make a few minor tweaks to the happiness files and facility queues to fix it. I really wish you could have happiness increments in decimals rather than just whole integers. There's at least one game coming out that does that...
