[Dark.Revenant]

combatFreighterCombatUseFractionWhenPriority is set to 0.2 and a large-sized combat freighter (for example the Venture) is marked Priority.  No other ships are marked Priority.

Expected behavior: 20% of cruisers will be Ventures.
Actual behavior: 100% of cruisers are Ventures.

Expected behavior is established if (in the above example), all cruiser-sized ships are marked Priority.  In effect, the Priority is overriding the CombatUseFraction; a fraction of 0 means no Ventures, a fraction of >0 means all Ventures; 0.2 is essentially identical to 1.

Thank you for the report! If I'm understanding right, this is working as intended - it's not meant to let you cross-pollinate priority and non-priority ships; the fleet factory code is not set up for that. Its only function is as you describe in "expected behavior is established".

What does the "WhenPriority" in "combatFreighterCombatUseFractionWhenPriority" mean, if it specifically does not work, "when [pertaining ships are marked as] priority"?

[Alex]

Per what DR said in his post, it specifically does work when the ships are marked priority, it just does not allow the selection of non-priority ships as a fallback.

combatFreighterCombatUseFractionWhenPriority applies to priority ships, combatFreighterCombatUseFraction applies to non-priority ships, there's no value that applies to priority ships but then allows picking non-priority if that check fails, snice fleet creation just doesn't work like that.
