Observations in my current 2.6 game

from GalCiv3 Forums

Not really smart AI behaviour in my current game where I fight the Krynn at the moment:

- I see no farms on Krynn planets (to refer to the discussion whether the AI builds farms or not).

- The Krynn have several colony ships (usually 2 or 3) on a heap next to every shipyard.

- The Krynn built a generic starbase next to their home system (8 tiles away from Kryseth) that doesn't seem to serve any purpose (too near to enhance ship range early in the game, not near any asteroids).

In my current 2.61 opt-in game I am seeing this along with freighters, constructors and sometimes a warship in the stacks.

Is the Bazaar within the range of the starbase? Sometimes the AI (one or more) will build a starbase to "harvest" the Bazaar.  I have seen in one game, maybe an opt-in for 2.5 or 2.6, several Bazaars with 3 starbases, and no more, around each of them, with each starbase from a different race.  Many of the races were "harvesting" more than one Bazaar.  I haven't seen it recently.

Yes, exactly, it's only a couple of tiles away from the bazaar ...
