Is there a mod that makes your ships smarter?

[quote="I've never really noticed enemy ships crashing into each other, even with 20+ ship fleets. I'm not saying they don't, just that I haven't noticed it happening. Perhaps the AI scripts are better written than the player scripts? It might be worth looking into.[/quote]

For sure, just try a protection mission and you will see the pirate crash in the base you need to protect. Mmmm maybe they Kamikase

In my opinion, the x-universe simply has kamikaze pilots, even if those ships belong to your fleet. Who wants a long dragged out battle/war like real life. It is much more effective to annihilate thy foe with "ramming speed". No I am not talking out of my @$$, I am really serious.

P.S. The reason why AI controlled ships are not "smarter"...
The game has SPACEWEED & SPACEFUEL as commodities.

I think you are right, yospanky. I frequently find my playership (an M6) running down enemy M3's and M6's (and occasionally M7's), stripping most of their shields with its weapons fire, before slamming into and popping them. Crazy pilot.

It tried it on an M2 once, after stripping all the shields, but unfortunately, it went pop instead of the M2.

It all makes sense now!

YAY LETS ALL JUST PASS THE BOWL AROUND. but no seriously, if i wanted my guys kamikazing it up, i'd want an option for it... not default.
