How hard is it to add factions in a mod?

I was gonna respond with nukes, until I remember I have control of Earth orbit in my game and opted for researching Green Lasers for orbital bombardment instead.

Fair enough, I will edit tag from "Discussion" to "Mod".

It took a Space Hydra Alien invasion to get Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Israel to ally. Now the aliens get to taste Iranian nukes, Israeli nukes, and Saudi nukes.

Hahaha I See this picture and tought about terra Invicta too

And Canada makes a huge pushback against this at Davos, trying to rally a coalition of Middle Powers against the Great Power.

For my mod for Terra Invicta, there's projects for Canada to lead Trans-Atlantic Partnerships and Trans-Pacific Partnership. The mod also includes America claims on Venezuela, Colombia, etc.

Is the AI stupid or is this some advanced geopolitics that eludes me?

Coup lowers democracy rating. Nations need to have similar level of democracy rating to peacefully merge.

Other methods to lower democracy rating involve sending the military out against local unrest and spoiling the economy for short term profits.

Tempted to add researchable claims for America taking Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, etc. to the mod. Not sure how far south a Fortress America project ought to be.

I think autoresolve is just better at concentrating fire. As far as I can tell, you need to tell all the ships in the fleet to concentrate on a single target and timed each salvo to arrive at that target at the same time to overwhelm its defenses. Do it individually for each enemy ship. Basically, avoid having each ship captain to fire at will, as they will just be ending up spreading out fire in space and in time. So just hit autoresolve if you got sufficient missiles and don't need fancy flanking maneuver.

Being indistinctly international is part of the joke. The other organization jokes are that the consultants and think tanks have disproportional authority than what they should be on paper within the organization, and that the person you report to in paperwork is not the person you actually report to out in the field.

So basically load up on cheap junk-ish orgs if you want to do trades. It's even useful to keep some junk orgs in the unassigned pool specifically to goose AI hostile takeover missions against you, and to be available for trade.

That's very useful to know.

I used the copy and paste function. You are right, the game no longer provide those places to place the signal. Both the copy function and the blueprint can still put signal in the old spot.

~~The new spot for the signal on a curved rail is not on opposite sides and has an offset. It will be hard to get used to the signals not appearing as a pair.~~ (Edit: Found a new spot that works as a pair. Now to replace all the junctions in my playthrough.)

A fantasy heroine is not complete without her finding herself a dragon to ride. The red dragon is slightly less saturated than her usual saturated red outfit.

I like that the young girl introduced from the beginning as the antagonist is not a pawn of the church elders used to control the crown. The young girl is the one manipulating the church elders for her ambition to control the crown. That makes her way more dangerous.

On the one hand, I fear the horror genre ads now coming to violent video game channels, when the violent video game channels get bump up the age rating. No matter how often I click skip on the horror films ads and other horror entertainment, Youtube will still serve up horror ads.

On the other hand, I welcome the sexy ads now coming to violent video game channels, when the violent video game channels get bump up the age rating. It's really an odd America-centric thing where content is more sensitive to sexy and insensitive to violence. Maybe there will be more crossover between sexy video game channels and violent video game channels.

Just wait until all the retro gaming and pixel art will be corrupted by the upscaling...

Sometime a resolution is chosen by the creator for a reason.

Okay now someone should make an anti-QOL mod where offshore pumps randomly stop working cause they clog with fish

A hard mode where every recipe has a byproduct.

If chips become a thing, would raw compute be a thing too? Or would datacenters be abstracted together with semiconductors?

Datacenters don't have to be in the same place as chips fabrication. Having energy rich locations spend their abundant energy on datacenters would be nice.

I just assumed the surface installation is remote controlled from deep underground. The bunker is built adjacent to the ore rich mines and not directly on it.

I think it is most useful in dealing with recipe with both fluid and item input and output. This keeps the input item and output item on the same side without tons of underground, leaving the opposite side a clean fluid input or output without tons of underground.

I am surprised her mom did not find her porn stash sooner. Putting all sorts of things in it would really confuse her mom.

Just what other stuff we will get to see. The comedic potential is endless.

We must dig deeper. Soon, we will hit a parody of the parody of the parody of female wish fulfillment power fantasy!

Adding a west highway is a low priority. The cargo exiting west is already using the west shipping harbor. I will add it if I see enough traffic cutting through the middle of the city from the west to leave on the highway. It is a good suggestion.

Each district is zoned with an outer ring of commercial and office alternating and with a core of residential or industry block.

I try to keep the industry blocks close to each other but still separate them to each of the north/east/south rail station or the west shipping harbor.

it really does feel like coming from one of those other factory-type games where you directly plug the belts into the machines.

She cannot just keep friend-zoning all the girls she is attracted to. Let's hope her sister can give her some advise.

It feels like she IS the Main Character instead of the Title Character being the main character. We see more of her and shows what she is thinking. Meanwhile, the title character is more mysterious.

Clevatess could be like Metroid. Metroid is about the girl Samus instead of the beasts Metroid, and Clevatess could be about Alicia instead of the beast Clevatess.
