AI Personalities+Bug Branch compatch

Description
A Compatibility Patch for More AI Personalities and Ethics & Civics: Bug Branch

This mod aims to provide compatibility between both More AI Personalities and Ethics & Civics Bug Branch as the additional AI personalities were getting overwritten by the much more hostile Bug Branch weights. It also fixes most of the Bug Branch AIs being peaceful traders, so there is that.

You need Bug Branch for this to work, but to be safe all code from More AI Personalities is present. It is listed because as an awesome mod the OG author deserves more recognition. The amount of writing is quite... Extensive.

>NOTE: This mod hasn't been entirely thoroughly tested for all AI appearing without overwriting each other (I broadened the categories for some with the new ethics, so overlaps may exist).
If any AI have unfitting personalities which could be otherwise spawned, feel free to let me know! There is a mind-numbing 9000+ lines of script I had to inspect and modify, so some may have slipped through.

All credit to the original creators (Aside the half-a-day I spent making compatibilities fit)

>WARNING: This involves overwriting files both mods overwrite (Which includes all AI personalities since Bug Branch writes to the vanilla file location). Caution is advised with other AI personality mods overwriting these files.

Updated for 3.7.2, should work with 3.8.* currently as the original mod didn't require any major changes.

Yep, thanks for the answer. As a precaution I moved this to be unlisted (Still available in case someone runs an older version)

Appreciate it! @alankraskow

@Mr. Newb McMuffin this doesn't seem to be needed anymore. I checked and compared the weights, and it seems this mod would actually mess things up now. So use just more personalities and bug branch together, without this mod.

Does this still work in 4.0?

@Maty83 Tried without the base AI personalities and got the same result. Not a single one out of 20. I think I will just give up on bug branch. New ethics just cause too many issues. It doesn't even spawn machine empires, clearly there's too much incompatibility with other mods.

Unfortunately with the recent changes I am not sure if the overall AI logic hadn't changed. And since you're using it with the base More AI Personalities it seems, try without it. The description explains why it is present.

Anyhow, if it turns out incompatible, I will try to look at it at some point, no guarantees when though.

Not sure if it's still being worked on, but didn't work with current bug branch/spawn bias. Not a single out of 20 other empires had personality from the mod. I've tried it twice in various combos, but nop.

It should, but there might be fallbacks to less specific personalities if bug branch has expanded its personalities again. Not sure, and unfortunately I don't have the time to check.

Does this still work in 3.12?

It hasn't been updated, but it should work without issue (Unless new personalities got added, or the format for personalities got changed)
