MAMP citizen frames AP

(M)aximally (A)utomated (M)inimally (P)opulated AP

Citizen Frames where pops have 5x-10x output but the same in upkeep/housing/empire size. So in endgame, one pop can replace 10. In my mind it makes sense since machines can just upgrade themselves. Why cant there be giant farming/mining/smelting mecha making things more efficient

• trait icons, made myself ^^
• building icons
• tech
• AP (art approval pending)

TODO:

• special project for each tech
• an interactive series of events for each special project
• implement MAMP construction decision .. perhaps Cat 1 can be assembled but cat 2 and 3 have to be decisions
• MAMP Species, limit 2 traits, 1 points
• scripted effects to make MAMP species pops
• MAMP Species limits, CAN'T work research jobs, unity jobs, pop assembly, or any ruler job. CAN do alloy jobs, advanced resources, worker jobs, amenities
• MAMP species add-on traits that are 0 points and let the pops work army jobs ...... maybe these arent a great idea, if it ends up being too much micro

From notes:

• “Citizen Frame” experiement, constructed on an asteroid.
• Scientist project in orbit.. “ran our tests. quite feasible but not particularly useful when it comes to research. These frames arent suited at all for sensitive work”
• Military project.. “this will have some benefits, but the attack power won’t be impressive. They will make excellent fodder”. Unlocks tech for Citizen Frame Armies
• Society research proj. Planet must have a governor. “This will have tremendous impact on basic work, mining output, materials production, amenities.”

L2 bay:

TODO:

fix MAMP being amalgamated bc it's not recognized as a machine (so it's turned into a slave) xD

MAMP stuff is working .. new pops are in

I just wish I had a sick portrait to distinguish MAMP frames from other bots

need decision icon that looks good

Auto construction planning:

Track last created MAMP species in a planetary variable value of 1, cat1; 2, 3 , there is an association. Since we cant store text in variables.

Use planetary modifier with timer for each level of MAMP, block decision while modifier is active

might need a custom GUI for this. does it make sense to block changing CAT- level every 10 years via policy? And also what methods do we have for knowing that an edict has been disabled? set country var and do monthly check to see if edict is off but country var still on? then we'd know it was disabled.

~~Also start working on upgrade decision -- Upgrade to MAMP 2, MAMP 3 in GUI .. check box "Upgrade Cat1 MAMP" in the options for category 2~~

MAybe custom GUI can also track total MAMP produced, ever,.... possible achievement?

Each planet will have a decision: auto-construct cat1, cat2, cat3. whichever is active, hides the other 2

Edicts: Start Auto-construction cat1 on all worlds auto construct cat 2 cat 3

Add MAMP job limits: can_fill_ruler_job should be no for MAMP

MAMP TECH:

• Hot-Swappable Work Modules MAMP pops will auto-mod based on their job
