AI does not work on spaceship

[demoix]

Description of the bug

When turning AI on your combat ship in a space battle ( Stats > Override AI Control Behaviour > Make Character AI controlled) it simply only ends turns automatically and does not move, nor fight. This option works for companion characters and they fight after turning AI on, but for the spaceship it does not work. Would be possible to fix that?

Steps To Reproduce

1. Enter to space combat
2. Open ToyBox > Party > Starships > "Your flagship" > Stats > Override AI Control Behaviour ON > Make Character AI controlled ON

Expected Behavior

AI should control a spaceship and fight as usual in ground combat but instead, AI only skips turns automatically in space combat without moving or firing.

Update: Updated to 1.3v game patch and 1.7.7 ToyBox patch but the issue still persists.

ToyBox does not implement AI. All the toggle does is enable the built-in AI (called brain) of a unit. This works for normal companions as they have a simple brain attached, but it seems like the player Starship(s) don't have a (fitting) brain attached.

My guess is non-AI units all have a default brain which have simple actions, but those simple actions can't be used by Spaceships

Ah, that's pretty sad. Space combat looks very nice and it would be interesting to see how AI handles the main voidship with various abilities because AI always makes the best moves and ends up in the best position (for example weapons are out of range to attack and need to perform inconvenient maneuvers to attack enemies on the next turn). It is quite strange why specifically the player's voidship does not have an attached brain, as both enemy and friendly ships do (for example, Imperial Navy cruiser and other capital ships with many abilities have AI and use those abilities during the fight). Thank you for your explanation and support.

Because the devs expect them to need to be driven by AI, meaning they attached a brain there. The player-driven ship however isn't supposed to be AI-controlled so nobody attached on there.

Maybe using PatchTool could allow manually attaching a proper brain? I don't know.

Now I understand why AI can be attached to companions, because there are cases where they are controlled by AI in certain fights companion being outside of your party but just an ally. But also, if there is a possibility of attaching AI brains to the spaceship via PatchTool, that would be great.
EDIT: However, it is still strange because it is possible to attach AI on the main character but not on the main spaceship.
