More expensive Intelligence projects

[Fyron]

Well yeah, but not that much more. Technological Espionage can't really be made better unless you want it to steal lots of tech. I had assumed it would remain untouched.

If that makes any sense )

You know, there could be 2 Versions of intel disruption. The cheaper one has no message to the target, the more expensive does. The whole point is to get as much intel going against them at once. So, a more expensive project is necessarily the better one for this.

I think your mega prodject should destroy a bunch of intel facilities, if the point is to disrupt Counter intel then it makes sense that after all the pinko witch hunting that some intell organizations would be kaput.

[Fyron]

I do not think you can specifically target intel facilities, but I will look into it.

code:

Name                      := Intelligence Disruption

Description               := Operatives perform a vast multitude of minor sabotage operations 

throughout the target empire, aiming to distract enemy counter-intelligence forces from the real 

threats. 

Group                     := Intelligence Disruption

Cost                      := 500000

Num Source Messages       := 1

Source Message 1          := Our intelligence network has caused widespread chaos in the 

[%TargetEmpireName] empire. [%ActualAmount] resources have been lost in chaos.

Target Message Title 1    := Chaos

Target Message 1          := Widespread terrorist activities throughout the empire have 

greatly distracted our field agents. In the chaos, [%ActualAmount] resources have been lost.

How about making a set of projects?

Level 1:
50k no-message
100k message

L2:
100k no-message
200k message

L3:
200k no-message
400k message

etc.

[Fyron]

Well I did make a 300k project with no message. But I suppose a range would be better.
