AI not upgrading Governments #22

Open Infixo opened 1 year ago

[from Steam workshop] zedBeast 16 Jul, 2022 @ 11:05pm  @infixo I see. Any chance it could change that in the future (or is there a related mod)? I've always found it to be unbearably stupid for the AI to be in the modern era and yet for it be using "Classic Republic" or something dumb like that haha.

=== Red Earth 10 Sep, 2022 @ 4:46am  So, can anything be done about AIs reluctance towards using tier 2 governments? Some will use monarchy or theocracy, but many won't upgrade, and I don't even remember if I've ever seen a merchant republic. I just had a game with civs in the information age of civics still using tier 1 governments. I really wanna find how to change this.

=== @redearth No parameters directly affecting government scoring are exposed for modding. You could try to tweak the features of each government to make sure that higher tiers are scored higher. Just an idea, not sure if it would work. However, there was a time when AI chose Fascism all the time. It was caused by an error in a policy attached to Fascism that was scored absurdly high. When you removed the policy - the AI started to choose various govs.

From what I've seen, the AI just skips all civics that include Tier 2 governments, which appears to be the main reason for this problem.

@Phyrax1 What do you mean "skip"? You can't skip civics if you want to progress more at some point...

You can skip all Tier 2 government civics as far as I know. Divine Right, Reformed Church and Exploration can all be skipped. Originally I was talking only about Tier 2 governments, but the AI also often skips the Tier 3 government civics as they can be skipped, too. But generally the AI is pretty consistent at upgrading to a Tier 3 government. It's just the Tier 2 governments that they rarely get.

Oh I see... I play with one of my mods, Real Tech Tree, and those civics cannot be skipped then. AI in my games always chooses some Tier II gov. Maybe because it has to go through them...
