I'm glad you cleared that up - I thought I'd misunderstood the Anger file for a while there. I think the idea is that the MEE value in the AI Anger files is the INCREASE in anger when they decide you're the MEE. So a decrease (say, changing the default (50) to 20) would make them less angry towards the MEE.

<snip> Some values are still ambiguous though. There is a setting called:

AI Mega Evil Empire Threshold Score Thousands

With a default value of 500... What precise affect this has I am not certain.



This is an easy one; the MEE will not take effect unless the first place empire has a score greater than the threshold (default 500,000) AND has a score greater than [Trigger]% of the second place player. This prevents people from becoming MEE too early in the game. Of course, in large galaxies this value should probably be increased, since it would be easier to have rather high scores...
