I want to make a scenario which you control insects to help a disease spread and eventually destroy humanity, with that kind of AI I talked about back when I was making an Anti-Plague scenario, and make the insects indirectly control disease evolution. In the scenario the disease will start in a random hot country and will tend to develop Insect transmission as soon as possible and then unlocks the ability for your infected insects to help the disease.

I like that idea. I just created a trait that is evolved at the start..disallowing devolution of it and all you have to do is change the value of custom global variable 2 and it will trigger a random evolution and reset the variable. I could change it so you don't even need the trait for the event to fire
