Description
Welcome back, Commanders!
In the vanilla game, minor factions have different, weaker parameters for their battle AI. This mod just copies over the major faction values so that they use the same Battle AI. This ONLY affects Battle ai decision making. It doesn't change anything like damage done or upkeep.

Fiftytifty used to have a mod that does the same thing which is what made me aware of the battle ai file. However, since it is literally just copying the contents of the major file into the minor file, I feel it is simple enough that I did not need to ask permission.

It's not possible for this mod to make minor factions act dumber than major factions, if they seem to act dumber than before then it's either placebo or major factions are dumber than minor factions.

There's two files in the vanilla game that control battle AI, one is titled bai_values_major, the other is bai_values_minor. All I did was copy the values from the major file over to the minor file. I don't know the specifics of how they affect things and I haven't personally compared and tested. It looks like the majority of differences affect which units the AI prefers to use to defend certain chokepoints in siege battles.

Could someone tell me if they feel this is worth it? Gotta keep that mod list trimmed down, yet this looks interesting. I feel like I have noticed minor factions being even dumber in combat, but it´s frankly hard to quantify because the AI does so many stupid things in battle anyway.

I am confused about what this mod does exactly. Does this simply equalize minor factions vs. major factions in auto-resolve?

The file this mod depends on hasn't changed in vanilla since this was published, so I don't think this mod needs an update for 5.0.
