FOTS AI Overhaul (Updated!)

NEW! AI will now station more troops at its towns & borders if it's had a recent war with the particular clan in the recent past.)

What does this do?

This mod makes several changes to the behavior and choices the AI will make on the campaign. (no battle AI changes yet)

1. Unit Recruitment The AI will now prioritize ranged missile units over melee units (Less yari levy spam). It's pretty well developed at this stage but additional improvements will be made.

2. Building Priority The AI will now improve their provinces in a smarter way (Better building comboing, more focus on either economic or military buildings.) There might also be problems that arise with this, leave suggestions in the comments!

3. Technology AI will prioritize researching Western Tech and military techs more, with a focus on prioritizing rank fire and rifles to give the player a more realistic and challenging campaign!

4. Naval Changes AI won't spam crappy wooden ships, they'll focus less on navy in general and when they do buy ships they'll aim for heavier and better armed ships.

5. Campaign Choices AI are now better allies/vassals, and being better at defending their provinces and such.

6. Budgeting AI will manage their economy better, they will build up infrastructure and the economy!

7. AI Unit Priorities AI now prioritizes western style units more than traditional units, (you'll see less samurai unless the clan is a diehard traditional clan) The goal here is to have more gunfights rather than the player mowing down 3000 yari levy.
