Major and minor constructor issues with 6.1

    1)  When I met the Terrans they were building constructors, not colony ships, and ignoring planets I knew they could see, since they sent a constructor past them to take strategic resources.

   2)  They sent constructors deep into my territory to take my resources.  I never saw a scout.

   3)  Minor races are not building constructors at all, even though they have resources visible from their homeworld.  They are building defense ships though, despite no one having invasion tech.

   It is almost like Minors got pirate AI and majors got minor AI.

  I tried to submit this as a bug report with a save game, didn't work.

In my game, they didn't have too many starbases but they built a shipyard within 2 hexes of every AI's capital. They also only seem to have tiny ships.

   I am also having fun buying their survey ships and plundering anomalies and killing pirates with them.

They are aware of this already but right now you can buy colony ships. It was worth a little over 600 b.c.  which is about half the price of a bare bones  colony ship and theirs had 8 mv.
