AI War Beta 6.013 "Core Foamhammer" Released!

I ran into a problem with a Remains Rebuilder in my current game.

I had captured a world and built a Command Station, Shield, a pair of Mini Fortresses and an Energy Collector.  Before too long, the AI destroyed it while I was fighting off an incursion against my Homeworld.  Once everything had settled down, I sent a fleet back out to clear and recapture the other world and I sent along a Remains Rebuilder and some engineers to patch things up.

This is where I ran into problems.  It rebuilt the remains of the Command Center without problem, but then it tried to rebuild the Mini Fortress.  The problem was, I lacked the power to replace those without the Energy Collector being rebuilt first.  I tried to manually target the Rebuilder by selecting it and right clicking the Energy Collector, but that didn't work, it still tried to rebuild the Mini Fortress first.  I eventually had to fly the Remains Rebuilder away from the Mini Fortress until it was out of range and the Energy Collector was just within the edge of its range to get it to actually rebuild the Energy Collector.

Would it be possible to raise the priority the Remains Rebuilders places on Energy Collectors, perhaps to be just behind the Command Centers?

Way ahead of you on this one.

10998: Remains Rebuilders won't always rebuild energy collectors (or matter converters) when there isn't enough power

CPAs have been made a bit more ferocious in some circumstances on diff 10 (with a lesser impact on other greater-than-9 difficulties).

That doesn't sound so bad. Of course, you tend to hide the nastiest changes behind innocent patch notes, so you could mean a bit shift.

Nah, it's not a 2x change.  Still trying for semi-subtle.  We'll see how long that lasts.
