so from the perspective of the AI in regards to the silicon nation i have mixed feelings:
on the one hand i love it because its an interesting challenge and allows you to do so much in regards to destabilizing the station. From what i saw i think the borgs liked the freedom as well even with the restrictions i gave them and our neutrality as a whole.
but on the other hand that neutrality is almost forced as the borgs have such a massive disadvantage because they cant replace lost limbs or rebuild dead borgs like every other nation can, nor can our borgs adjust tools or adapt to changing situations without direct assistance from another crew member.
so while its a nice challenge to play a neutral party in a game thats all about murdering the crap out of each other its kind of spoiled by the fact that its almost forced on you. if i were to suggest any changes i think it would be to make the silicon department a sort of third party entity.
they have no claim to territory because they automatically have access to the whole station. maybe just a simple goal change to be something like "silicons priorities are to ensure the station remains livable by whatever means they see fit" this gives them a clear goal outside of invade every room you can, while also allowing them to get violent if they want, which would still allow them to throw wrenches into the plans of overly aggressive nations.
thats just how i feel about it, im sure everyone has ideas on how to improve it better though.
