Shi = shields this type of ship has
Pha = phaser this type of ship has
Tor = has torpedo capability
Mis = has missile capability
Dec = has decoy capability
Jam = has jammer capability
Zip = has zipper capability
Mine = has mine capability
Atck = can launch planetary attacks (CPU ships can't do this regardless of settings)
Clo = has cloaking capability
Acc = acceleration rate (how quickly ship speeds up and slows down)
Warp = top warp speed (when not at hyperwarp)
Tons = maximum weight ship can hold
Scan = range of scanner in parsecs (100k means 10 sectors in any direction), the long range scanner is 10x this value
Pts = points awarded for destroying a ship of this type
User = lowest user ship class this CPU will pursue (for example, 5 means it'll only come after a user in a Star Cruiser or higher numbered ship, except for the Freight Barge which is set to CYB = N)
Make = the maximum amount of this ship that can exist at the same time
Tough = 0 for stupid, 1 for smart (TO DO: look into the actual difference)
Dmg = damage effect factor (100 is "normal," lower numbers mean ship is more fragile, higher numbers mean ship is more resilient)
All CPU ships are defined with a price of 20000, but since they can't be purchased this is never used.

Hyperwarp
In order to keep CPU ships close to human players, combative CPU ships that are (by default, this can be adjusted) more than 25 sectors away from a human player they are pursuing will travel at "hyperwarp," which is 20 times the normal CPU ship's speed. They will drop back down to normal speeds when they are within 10 sectors. When scanning a ship traveling at hyperwarp, the scan will read "Hyper," masking the actual speed[1].
