A More Aggressive AI

Description
OVERVIEW______________________________________________

So I made this mod because I hate how passive the AI is. It makes for a very boring game. They never want to declare war and never really challenge your expansion. This mod aims to change that.

The way the CAI Personality folder works is that you change the likelyhood of a faction declaring war, offering peace, making alliances, etc. based on how the faction feels about you.


CHANGES MADE__________________________________________

What I did was make a faction more likely to declare war on you if it is unfriendly, very unfriendly or hostile towards you. Obviously, I made it more likely that they would declare war on you if they were hostile then if they were just unfriendly towards you. Nothing else was changed, so don't think that they're more likely to declare war even if they're friendly because they're not.

Lastly, I increased the AI's priority to attack you (and all other enemy factions) when they are at war with you so that they'll actually pose a threat when war is declared instead of just sitting there idly, waiting for you to attack.

This also has the unintended side effect of causing the AI to develop larger empires. Since the threshold for the AI declaring war has been lowered, they go to war more often and are more aggressive in their attacks which means they capture more land, sooner.

COMPATIBILITIES________________________________________________

This mod is savegame compatible and will work with any mod that doesn't interfere with diplomacy (such as DEI and Champloo's Diplomacy Mod)

Damage inc.'s comment was my concern with a mod like this. It's a nice idea but I can see by making AI more aggressive that they would end up destroying their economies and actually end up being weaker after a while through war exhaustion. Just in irl, a faction will need periods of peace (or at least relative peace) to rebuild for the next war. If it was a good idea to make the AI more aggressive without ruining anything else to make the game more exciting, the CA devs probably would have done it themselves.

seems odd to be negative 1400 with Anthonys rome, and hes still letting me trade with him xD after 70 turns, never declared war on me, granted was playing as the iceni and miles away, bjut still didnt even cancel trade, i guess he really wanted my furs, depite getting them from friendly factions nearby, i think this mod is out of date.

Unfortunately, in my experience this mod achieves the opposite of the intended effect.

With this mod you will spend the first couple of dozen turns sweating because basically every single one of your neighbours will declare war on you right away. But then once you manage to survive that and consolidate, you're looking at an AI that is constantly at war, destroying their troops and wasting their income on rebuilding armies rather than upgrading their economy. They also leave their cities undefended because they're constantly on the offensive against other AI as well and the game becomes even more of a steamrolling simulator after the midgame.
