Hi,
how is AI Car Design currently handled? According to the files, the AI companies have preferences regarding certain vehicle characteristics. But what about the actual design phase? Does the AI actually research components on its own, or is there a hard-coded list of components or even vehicles that the AI has access to? I am asking, because there are a number of oddities, such as AI cars with 9HP getting up to 230km/h, which leads me to believe they are somewhat not bound to the same design restrictions the player is (which is not necesarily a bad thing, just curious).
