Planet automation building too many upgrades, strategic resources negative

[Bl4ckSh33p]

I used planetary automation without a sector focus and it seems to build according to designation with the overall stockpile.

(great! I don't know what happens if I set a focus for so many different planets and I'm scared of ruining my planets cause build AI was so bad in the past. Need to try it in next game.)

But the ai upgraded all my alloy buildings and now I'm at -5 motes per month. It's not too bad with my economy but did the AI know I can afford buying motes monthly?
Maybe it shouldn't upgrade if you don't have enough?

1. What platform are you using?
- Xbox Series X

2. What version of the game are you using?

4. When did this start happening?

6. Does this happen on all saves or just specific ones?
- one I tried so far

7. What steps have you taken to try and solve this yourself (reinstall, Google error code etc)?

OK, after some time the AI now starts building chemical plants. I'm impressed! I would have built mote factories first but it seems to work for now.
/edit: but 3 planets build a chemical plant now which will give about +8 or +9 motes.

It seems all planets individually saw that motes are needed and started building a factory. But they don't know about each other and now built too many?

In the past robots built hydroponic farms and bio reactors everywhere and wasted many building slots.
Need to test a bit more.

(Can't wait to get the 3.4 AI upgrades but that's still a long time.)
