Mine Follies

[Daynarr]

Well, I am trying to see how will AI handle minefields if I increase production of minesweepers in his scripts. I am still testing the changes, but from what I saw in the races files, AI just produces a low amount of mine-sweepers. It is quite possible that just by increasing its production of minesweepers it will be able to handle minefields better. It does send them to sweep mines so that is not a problem. The only question is; will he group them into fleets or not. I know for a fact that he Groups attack ships and defense ships separately and treats them separately (he usually puts defense ships in orbit of his planets or parks them in a warp point - and I really mean PARKS them ). Anyways, if he would group minesweepers like he does other ships, then the problem could be solved just by increasing minesweeper production (right now AI produces only one minesweeper at a time).
