Overview
This is a lightweight compatibility and balance patch for:
More AI Personalities normally determines AI personalities mainly through vanilla ethics, civics, traits, and origins.
Because Ethics and Civics Classic introduces additional ethics, those new ethics are not properly reflected in MAP's personality selection system by default.
This patch adds conservative personality weight modifiers for the custom ethics introduced by Ethics and Civics Classic.
What This Patch Does
- Preserves the original AI personalities and behavior settings from More AI Personalities.
- Adds Ethics and Civics Classic ethics to MAP personality selection weights.
- Applies compatibility weights to 48 out of MAP's 56 personalities.
- Keeps the original personality eligibility and allow conditions unchanged.
- Does not force a specific personality based on a single ethic.
- Does not modify diplomacy values, military behavior, ship preferences, economic spending, or localization.
The following Ethics and Civics Classic ethics are supported:
- Ecocentrist
- Industrialist
- Cooperative
- Competitive
Normal ethics add
+1 to an appropriate personality's selection weight.
Fanatic ethics add
+2.
These modifiers are intentionally small, so the original MAP conditions remain the main factor when selecting an AI personality.
Example
An empire with the Industrialist and Competitive ethics has a slightly higher chance of receiving personalities associated with expansion, development, commerce, exploitation, or political competition.
An Ecocentrist and Cooperative empire has a slightly higher chance of receiving personalities associated with environmentalism, preservation, generosity, or peaceful cooperation.
The ethics only adjust the probability. They do not bypass MAP's original personality requirements.

This patch redefines MAP's personality entries in order to add the new ethic weights.
