AI Nations and their expansion

[Skeld W.]

In many other games I have seen that some AI countries have a good expansion rate. They grow very fast to a great power nation but suddenly the development stops. The AI nation is almost not growing anymore and wars they lead are more or less senseless. If I recall it correctly this behavior is intended by the developers to stop big AI nations via scripts.
My questions now is: is there a mod or a cheat to let any nation grow without limits?

Similar to "Jan Mayen" but not with its extreme buffed skills and for every AI nation.

It already got changed. They expand a lot more on the current patch.

Ceiling is still there, but if you got that feeling from older games try a few rounds on the new patch and check again.

I've played already a few games with the current patch, but i couldn't see any change to older game versions. Ottomans expand until a bit more than 2000 development and than he almost stops.

Quite often the Ottomans get brought down in wars at that point. Western Countries start catching in strength, and Ottomans run into stronger nations in Persia and India, so often won't attack.

Yea, but that's Ottos. France goes up to 2,5k sometimes and Spain is open end anyways. Had them run around with 3k once.

Not even sure I want them to 'unlock' the Ottos tbh.

Thanks for your answers, therefore i'll try it in a few other games and might i'll push another nations a bit.
