Capnq, thanks for happiness info!
For the weapon to-hit bonus, I am making new weapons and just wanted to know which ability it was (for a single weapon emplacement and not necessarily PD). I looked through the abilities file and could not find it. For the AI, my problem is illegal ship designs. I have gone through and crushed all non-conforming weapon family #s from the components, but there are still too many engines. I would like the AI to make the ships as fast as is legally possible, and no faster.
Desdinova, thanks for component restriction info!
