I don't think you're going to see much in the realm of further AI updates.  We've taken it about as far as we can.  Increase the difficulty level.

what? you can't code to simply stack fleet more?

 

just give them order to use max logistics as much they can

 

difficulty level don't help if they use ships one by one

There is no "Make stack fleet do thing" call.  Everything looks easy if your'e not a developer.

im not telling its easy, but you can program AI to force them to fill logistic space more insted send one ship if they got enemies ship in thier sensor range, or send one ship just to kill enemies probes or civilian ships, civilian ships should have lowerst priority to kill or even none, there is no point of civilian ships if you lost planet right away and that should be highest of highest priority also defend thier planets should be high too, not chanse probes or civilian ships in other side of maps or sending one ships to kill  Shipyard ,  Shipyard  are near planets so they can kill it with main fleet that going to counqer planets

AI  send 1 ship to kill   Shipyard 1st and  send 1 ship to kill planet defense, then he send main fleet to counquer planet, why? they can do this with main counqer fleet like normal player do

 

remove that nonsense that he send 1 ship to kill  Shipyard  and 1 ship to kill planet defense separatly and program them to send main fleet to kill planet defense and kill  and conquer right away with main fleet, when he send ships one by one he lost part of thier fleet

 

that thing you can do for 100% as programer, trust me im hardcore player for over 25 years and I know some things about balance in games :P
