For those complaining about the AI being too hard.
All you have to do, to dumb down the AI, is use the vanilla version of the following file:
data/cfg/sim.cfg
Use the vanilla settings in that, and for the most part you'll have the idiot escorts back. Go wrack up mass tonnage, and stop complaining. When you eventually get bored, (and you will), you can always switch back to the modded version of the sim.cfg file.
If you want something in between, compare the two files. It's not hard to figure out what was changed. I recommend using
winmerge for text file comparisions.
