You should do the same for Star Tech which is a fork of this mod that's less focused on war

Now try to simulate Vanilla ai and see the same horror with unbuild planets and 30 unemployed pops. The last more or less working version of Starnet AI was in pre "habitat rework" update versions of stellaris, and planets were well build and to year 2300 on grand admiral ai could field and maintain 500k fleet power, eating up fallen empires and 5x crisis. Getting in time to the feast to steal fallen tech was a challenge. Now vanilla code completely broke the mods inner working and the guy, who took over the mod only updates it's version number basically. The game's ai is brain-dead, modded ore not.

Sadly, Starnet has been in a maintenance only state for a long time now. The original coder behind it being Ukrainian, he's a bit busy. Someone kept it up to date, but not much as been done on the AI side of thing. The vanilla AI is basically caught up on most things. I've stopped using Starnet for a while now.

Honestly, the AI seems more competent and aggressive these days without StarNet.

@Kyle496 honestly that war should've ended a year ago. The losses they're taking will cripple them economy and culturally. But the USA is using them for a proxy war with Russia which is dumb on multiple levels. Without other countries stepping in with their own troops Ukraine can't win the best they can do is stall for time while the bodies continue to stack up.

I remember this mod being really good during the 2.0 days when the vanilla AI was super borked.

Does the AI alter its choices depending on its civics? They look almost synchronised, especially that vote in the galactic council.

I must now investigate this mod

I love Starnet but I have given up on it. It was still working alright with the unity rework but the two leader reworks definitely broke it, they also made a bunch of other changes that could impact Starnet. OldEnt does come back every few month to keep the mod alive but he is just keeping the code up to date with the changes to make it somewhat functionnal but that is it, that is very nice from him bc he doesn't even play or mod that game anymore. I have lurked a lot on the modding discord and I haven't seen anyone willing to seriously work on it, at best some other modders just take some code parts for their own mod. It also doesn' t help that no one knows exactly how it works because it uses dummy ressources to bypass the AI developped by the real devs to better implement the real changes to economy. Because the AI doesn't suck as much as it used to be it would be ideal if someone made a mod that help with chosing the tech optimally, traditions and ascencion path, maybe boost it with the scaling difficulty, and make the fleets more optimal too. It would be a lot of work but still way simpler than optimizing the economy.

The jokes on you Ep3o, ive been subscribed for a long time lol

You should try it on cadet difficulty to see the AI without any buffs

There is an extremely effective hidden ACOT/AoT AI mod you might want to test as well. Like less than 1000 people found it so far. Seems you can only access it from the AoT workshop page (listed in their load order). It won't show up in searches.

Try again with star tech mod? It’s a fork of star tech, but the ai is restricted from declaring war for the first 40 years and are less aggressive so they don’t waste time with those pointless humiliation wars. The reason why there are very little federations, vassals early on is because star tech ai makes every empire hate each other initially (aggressive first contact, closed borders, belligerent stance etc) so they are less likely to form alliances and help each other

For the bloody.... starnet ai?

SUBSCRIBE Still waiting on you get then losing then getting again that Galatron, bub...

Ya i found that starnet gets slammed if you have any other mods installed

Well I am using StartechAI and it is more challanging and interactive I think?

Mabey you coud try to do a vide where you play a empire while usieng this mod

This AI is having some serious issues.

Tbh maybe too many overtuned AIs. Last game I player two days ago humans spawned (default) and in year 20 there was federation of 3 empires. They all had prosperous unification so try these out. AI seems to be okay with it instead of other starts

I think to many Vanilla Stellaris change without adjusting the MoD its nowdays worse than Pure Vanilla i think .

Yeah now I'm really glad that I decided to not use this mod when I saw it. I was tempted but the comments led me to believe that because it hadn't be properly updated in so long the AI was acting erratic. Having watched this, I feel 100% validated in that opinion. This AI feels way worse than your videos that featured vanilla AI.

Yeet

Mod looks broken as fuck.

Not a terribly impressive display.
