Just another probably off the wall question of mine here. If we're not going to see AI modules in the current TW (am I wrong on this?) is there any way it might be possible to at least throw some more perhaps basic options into the standard Gold alien config?

What I mean are things like, perhaps, a meta-aggressive setting so that they'll attack races on sight, not just players. Also how about leaving offensive fighters outside of homespace, versus the defensive ones I see now even from aggressive aliens?

Another nice option might be the ability to use transwarp. I think it would definitely be nice if gold aliens would, at some point, upgrade to transwarp if their ship allowed it (maybe when they've maxed the figs and shields already?) and then put it to use when "called back to home sector" for example. I know there aren't many instances when aliens would have call to use it otherwise, but if they're flying around with some ore in twarp capable ships, wouldn't it be cool if they could twarp home? The same could go for upgrades at class 0 ports, I imagine.

What do other people think of this? Is it feasible to at least toss some kind of additional functionality like this into v3 if we're never going to see the AI modules? It would seem to be a fair compromise, but I do realize that it's probably far from a priority.

Anyway just some random thoughts. [:)]
