Summary0001544: AI wave size capped at almost exactly 2k??
DescriptionI'm playing against two Diff 8 AIs with random all Non-technologist. Throughout the game I've been able to keep the AIP around 200-250 thought it is now getting close to 300. Almost every time it sends a wave at me the wave is exactly 2,000 ships (usually 2,000-2,008). A couple times it was fewer ships around 1,500 but never more than 2k. I'm not sure what is causing it but it seems like the waves are supposed to be larger but something is capping them?

Btw, I get these wave sizes from the very beginning of the game. The first wave is usually 2,000 ships and it is still the same wave size 7 hours into the game.

Running on high caps? My waves always top out at 1000 ships on normal caps.

Its an artifact of the wave cap limit that will soon be removed. Ships over and above the 'wave cap' will arrive stood away inside AI Carriers when x4000 has time to make the change. (first post in the link below)

Yep, for the moment that's working as intended, but it's something we're already planning to change later on.
