Having played a few games with abundant resources and computer opponents, I wasnt so happy with how the computer chooses not to build an abundance or even a handful of Capital class ships. I personally like Capital vs Capital fights more than Frigates. Its usually me with 24+ and the computer with 2-3. I edited the text files to make Capital ships produce faster, cost less, and increased the overall Fleet Capacity to support it all. Still, no luck. End game I would review the results and the computer manages 3-4 most. These are very long games I might add.
So I wanted to ask if anyone has come around to solving this? Ive tried to be creative and replace the Frigate line of ships with Capital ships instead, with no luck (game doesnt run). This solution seems to be the most practical because the computer always builds Frigates, but I have yet to successfully alter the text files for it to work properly. Ive even disabled Frigates altogether, except for the Colony class. The computer just wants to avoid making Capital ships

So if theres anyone out there who can provide me with a solution I would appreciate it. Thx!
