I know they were trying to spice up the AI a bit but FCS, every major I meet is enraged and wants to kill me. Suspicious of my military build up when I have not built a single military ship. Hates me for invading their space wiyh no treaty. Hates me for having a different ideology. Hates me for trading with a race that has a different ideology.
The first 2 races I met Drengin and Krin declared war on me immediately but were so far away they were probably at least a hundred turns from being able to launch an attack, and neither of them had any fleets just the odd found defenders and cutters.
Testy, Testy, Testy, More backbone is good but they may have tipped over the teapot.
