Yes , I know about the weights and limits .
What I dont know is what weight and limit is represented by a unit
not being listed in the AI file at all , but available for the AI to
build.
When you have a potential number of 512 units that can be built the AI
files get very big ,and I cant identify by name the units that are
being built that I dont want to be built.
