Default Discussion On How To Improve Politics

The one thing about SEIV that really drives me insane is the Politics. I don't know enough about AI editing to change or even consider changing things around.

What I would like to see are simple modificiation that highten the role playing aspect of the game.

Right now, you have but three choices for tone, and I wish that there more, and specific in design.

Example;
01) Humble (+ Points=X to offer)
02) Polite
03) Friendly
04) Direct
05) Indifferant
06) Urgent
07) Demanding
08) Angry
09) Hostile
10) Blood Thirsty

Each one would have a + or - effect upon the response that the AI would take. A Fiendly tone would yeild more results than an Angry tone. A Blood Thirsty Tone in regard to "Leave X system NOW" would be far more powerful than a Polite Tone to "Leave X system now."

Do you think this would work?
