Computer AI Bonus low/high... what is it?

All,

When you configure your game you can set the AI on Hard (I always do) and starting bonus to High (which I also do). But what does the bonus consist of? Resources? Tech? Starting units?

I hope someone knows...

The bonus gives the AIs extra resources and extra building power each turn.

Resource modifiers
2x - low bonus
3x - medium bonus
5x - high bonus

I don't know exactly how much faster the SY go but they sure pump out ships.

Research points are generated with the same multiplier as Resource points too.

It should be noted that at medium and high bonus, the AI's usually have trouble using all of their resource points - this can be fixed by modifying the values in their Construction_Vehicles files.....
