Modifying governor AI

[Tesser4ct]

Is there any way to force the governor to build Pressure Domes when it has nothing else to do? I'm trying for a crazy high score with a faction and map specifically tailored for it and I'm causing ludicrous amounts of ecodamage with hundreds of bases, 504 to be exact. I could use an input macro to manually make it happen, but that would be slow.

Anyone have any ideas on how to change the governor settings, or the AI value of Pressure Domes? It would rather stockpile energy than build this particular facility.

Hey Tesser4ct!

Welcome to CFC and the Alpha Centauri forum.

I don't know for certain if there's a way to encourage the base governors to build Pressure Domes. You might try reducing the build cost in Alpha(x).txt. Change the line

Pressure Dome, 8, 0, DocFlex, Disable, Submersion/Resources

to

Pressure Dome, 1, 0, DocFlex, Disable, Submersion/Resources

I'm not sure whether that change will take effect in your current game, though.

The change took effect in the saved game, but the governor still won't build it. I also tried adding secret project AI values to it, but that was a no-go as well.

I guess I'll macro it with autohotkey.
