Okay, so how is the AI in the TDM mod different than in the regular game?

There are many differences that are too subtle for me to notice but ...

For one thing, the use of the attributes is carefully tweaked. For example, races that are angry xenophobes reduce their political savvy to nil, so thay can use the points for something else.

Techs to research are selected carefully, with a specific goal in mind. PPB's and engine destroyers abound. But not for everybody, there are some suprises.

There's more. The default races are designed for a human player to turn on the ministers and watch what happens as a learning experience. As much what not to do as what to do.

The AI gains no benefit from using intel to scan enemy planets, so TDM modpack races don't do that. The default AI has that there for a newbie to turn on the minister and go "Whoa, I can do that? Gotta do that more often"
