Does anyone know if/how the chassis cost factor works in alphax.txt?
In this line
Copter,M1, Chopper,M1, Rotor,M1, Lifter,M1, 8, 2, 1, 0, 1, 8, MindMac, Gunship,M1, Warbird,M1,
the 8 should mean the chopper has a cost factor of 8 compared to 1 for infantry and 2 for rovers. However a copter equipped with the same armor and weapons as a rover costs the same as the rover, not 4 times as much. Is there something broken about the cost factor? The hovertank has a cost factor of "3" but it far more expensive than a copter with the same equipment.
