Alright so I'm working on a mod to give the game a more star-fire-esk feel and I'm running up against a few problems/issues and looking for any flavor suggestions.

First off I should say I'm using the balance mod as a base. Secondly I'm new to this so please follow the k.i.s.s. principle

So the first issue I'm having is with the Gravity Drive systems. What I've done is made 4 components, the Gravity Manipulator (which is the normal engine set up) generates 156 base movement. Then I made the Light Gravity Drive Field Generator generates 200+25 mvt points as well as generates supplies, it weighs in at 50Kt. Then I have the Medium version 300+50 mvt points weighs in at 100Kt, and then the Heavy generating 400+75 mvt points and weighing 200Kt. The issue I'm having here is I've coded it so you can't have 2 of the same drive field generator, but is it possible to code so you can't have the other two either?

I've found that if I have a fleet with the strategy "Capture Planet", in strategic combat my troop-carrier's armed escorts will flee the scene after killing hostile ships without destroying weapons platforms. At that point, my troop carrier comes in and gets annihilated. Is there a way to configure the fleet so that the armed escorts destroy the weapons platforms before flying off?

I'm using stock SE5 v1.66.

Does Unnamed AI work with v1.66?
