Why can't vassals understand what most important?

[Wizzington]

AI always spends ADM on coring before basically anything else. They probably just don't have the ADM to spend.

 

[Wizzington]

Even if they have -3 stab?

The priority goes like:

1) If >25% OE, core
2) If <0 stab, get stab
3) If any non cores, core

It should not be possible for AI to prioritize teching etc over coring, and if you've seen this happen I would like a reproducible case with save so I can fix it.

Do they also set national focus to admin in such situations? Can we have a national focus vassal interaction, that allows us to change their national focus at expense of LD, if they are either lagging in military tech or need to core more

Having lots of OE makes AI more likely to pick adm focus, but it's not guaranteed.
