About the racial hate. You are talking about just in Mods right? It's kinda hard to have a hate against someone you never seen before as the stander game seems to show. Just my two cents of course.

In the default game, the description for the Eee say that they hate the Drushoka. The reason given is because the Eee are an energy race and the Drushoka use energy draining weapons and the Eee are frightened by them.

Problems:
1). Like you said everyone is just starting to explore space and shouldn't have met as yet

2). The Drushoka don't use energy draining weapons, their weapon choice seems to be going as fast as they can for High Energy Weapons. There aren't even energy draining weapons in the game. Well, shield depleters, but they don't kill the Eee.

3). IMHO, people(dinosaurs,crystal shards,organic energy blobs) ought to be able to get along if circumstances warrant. If they're losing the war, met a worse opponent.

4). The AI often gets mad and declares war anyway. The goal I guess is to prevent the Eee and Drushoka from ever having better then nonintercourse treaty or something

Seems to me the fastest way to fix this "bug" would be to remove text from the description.

Once in a while, someone reads the self destruct description "Overloads engines to destroy ship and boarding ship". Then, dutifully destroys the engines, trys to board, and gets blown up. And wnat's to know what they did wrong.

Another text block fix the game needs.
