Yeah its annoying i remember taking over a class 20 planet that had 8 farms and 11 embassies ...or a class 10 with a precursor mine tile ( +700 manu) that had an embasssy on it

i wonder whether the AI does this to grow the population and to change the buildings after that?

The AI never seems to use planetary bonuses. I have seen planets with approval rating bonuses and the AI decided to build factories on them, it then decided to build multi-media centers on the other plain tiles. The AI actually uses the bonus tiles about half of the time.

I see this type of mismanagement everywhere and I play games on "challenging". The AI could actually be tough at this level if it actually knew how to build infrastructure.

I have seen orbital defense systems of PQ4 planets, seriously!

lol lol lol lol, HILARIOUS first post

I think the computer players specialize planets much more than human players tend to. Given that the AI plays a pretty good game, the fact that it doesn't always use planets like we would doesn't mean it's doing something wrong.

Also, it uses the special tiles pretty well in my experience. Sometimes it's better to put a factory on a specila food tile though or a research center on a morale tile. Just because you could get some extra benefit from a tile doesn't mean it should dictate what you build always.

Well IF the planet HAS a morale building... Then it should GO on the Morlae Bonus Tile... Right?

Ok if it didnt have any tech on a planet, and had tech bonus tiles, then yeah build a Manu building on it.

I mean EVERY planet will use Moral Bonus Tiles. No race has 100% perm morale. So these should ALWAYS be used. But they aren't. I could see not putting a Manu on a 700% tile because it would bankrupt the AI. But at least SAVE it for later
