Description





Hello There! Have you ever wanted AI to design better planes, ships, and tanks? Do you always wonder why you just slaughtered up to 30 fighters a day, sank a 100 ships, and destroyed 2000 tanks? Do you finally want to suffer under played-designed aircraft or have some fun? If so, then this is the mod for you.
Features
  • Improved AI tank designs (Medium tank in particular) to prioritize Effectiveness, Breakthrough, Cost efficiency, and Armor
  • Improved AI ship designs with versatility and efficiency in mind (no more big ships sent to die or poorly equipped rafts)
  • Improved AI plane designs for more challenge and effectiveness, so no more stupidly one-sided confrontation


It is compatible with many mods, even those that change or extend the tech tree, as long as they retain WW2-era tech and beyond. Kaiserreich/Kaiserredux, Road to 56, and Ultimate Tech Tree are compatible.

=> mod made in synergy with Vanilla and Kaiserreich
=> Collection to try out: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3110132315

Future Changes
I will make compatibility patches for these three mods; other mods don't need it as much :
  • Equestria At War
  • Road to 56 (Future patch for new designs soon)
  • Ultimate Tech Tree
However, you can still use this one without the patches; the AI might stop designing past a certain point (I will fix that)

YOU DON'T NEED ALL 3 DLCS IF YOU ONLY NEED SOME ASPECTS OF THE MOD


Creating a mod takes a significant amount of time and effort. If you'd like to support the development and keep me motivated, consider donating using the Buy Me a Coffee button. I would greatly appreciate it.

I'm centralizing everything for my mod collection on a new Discord server. I'll rarely respond to comments, bug reports, or suggestions here. Please use the Better Mechanics Discord Server[discord.gg] for all future requests.

Yes it does. Works fine, all it does is change the current designs. I haven't had any problems with it, and the reason I switched it to an older version is because the ai wasn't building the correct aircraft.

Does it work with the current version?

No promises but it doesnt hurt to try

Bold question, sure, but will this thing work properly with BlackICE? I know it currently doesn't have a plane designer (that may or may not change though if I find the time to copy-paste some stuff to a sub-mod I'm making for myself), but will the ship (and especially tank) designer work correctly considering the big changes the mod makes to modules

=> Better Mechanics: Ai Compilation is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

So, "Ai Compilation" dosen't work (can't be subscribed in Steam)
