AI Ships will always prioritize the bigger ship, depending on proximity ''(e.g [[Dreadnoughts]] will be targeted over [[:Category:Battleship|Battleships]])'' but the smaller ship will sometimes be targeted if the AI is far closer to it compared to the bigger ship. | AI Ships will always prioritize the bigger ship, depending on proximity ''(e.g [[Dreadnoughts]] will be targeted over [[:Category:Battleship|Battleships]])'' but the smaller ship will sometimes be targeted if the AI is far closer to it compared to the bigger ship. | ||
==='''Detection Range'''=== | |||
AI Ships have an aggro/detection range of 13,000 Studs, anything less than or equal that number of studs and the AI will lock on to you if it's in an enemy AI Faction. | AI Ships have an aggro/detection range of 13,000 Studs, anything less than or equal that number of studs and the AI will lock on to you if it's in an enemy AI Faction. | ||
Warping from an AI Ship 13k+ studs away that has you locked on can make one of two things happen; One is the AI Ship will chase you by warping on your warp destination, Two is the AI Ship will give up on you and just stay on the spot. | Warping from an AI Ship 13k+ studs away that has you locked on can make one of two things happen; One is the AI Ship will chase you by warping on your warp destination, Two is the AI Ship will give up on you and just stay on the spot. | ||

<u>When an AI Ship has no target</u>, it will wander aimlessly throughout the map, warping to random locations, but the AI will not go out of bounds. | |||
Sometimes, an AI Ship is assigned to a [[:Category:Starbase|Starbase]] or a fixed location. These AI Ships will stay on their spot, guarding until there is a target, and will warp back to the location they're guarding if they're far away from it. | |||
<u>When an AI Ship has a target,</u> it will start a movement cycle detailed below. | |||
At 1500 studs and above, It will simply move closer to you in a linear path and the AI will attempt to turn the front of the ship it's controlling towards you if you attempt to move behind it. | At 1500 studs and above, It will simply move closer to you in a linear path and the AI will attempt to turn the front of the ship it's controlling towards you if you attempt to move behind it. | ||
At 1499 studs and below, the AI will turn it's ship in the opposite direction and will start moving away from you. During this, when the ship moves far away enough from you at 7000 studs, the AI will turn the ship around again, restarting the cycle. This is an exploitable major weakness for spinal based AI Ships ''(e.g [[Decimator]])'' as they are unable to shoot their spinals due to having no line of sight. ''(Exceptions are [[Galleon]] and [[Bruiser]] as both have backward facing spinals).'' | At 1499 studs and below, the AI will turn it's ship in the opposite direction and will start moving away from you.

*All AI ships are able to pass through the top and bottom borders(where players cannot pass or shoot through) of the map as well as being able to warp unrestricted off-map; although they try to keep within the map borders outside of combat. This can cause issues as sometimes their wrecks will be out of bounds and be unlootable.
