## Description:
- Nations on Easy no longer betray human allies
- Nations on Easy now attack humans only 25% of the time (down from 50%)
- Increased Easy reaction tick range (65-100, up from 65-80) so nations
respond more slowly
- Raised MIRV steamroll-stop thresholds on Easy (city gap multiplier 1.5
-> 2, min leader cities 15 -> 20) and slightly tuned Medium/Hard
thresholds

## Description:
- Hard / Impossible nations in team games auto-stop trading with all
enemies
- If there are a LOT of nations on the map (Enzo stream with 400 nation
HvN private games) they no longer start with a city, they start with eco
(port / factory) because they cannot gain much gold from bot-killing
- Impossible nations built way too many missile silos sometimes, caused
by the SAM overwhelming logic. Fixed now.
- In public HvN games with 5M starting gold, nations placed their
structures way too fast, which slowed down their expansion. And humans
could easily cause a lot of damage with one atom bomb. Now their first
structure is a SAM (on hard / impossible) and they wait between their
earlygame structure placements.
- Nations now spread out their port placements more evenly
- Nations are now able to attack much stronger enemies in team games
(They can expect donations)
- Improve performance a bit by adding more early-returns (Dont run any
nuking logic if nukes are disabled, no alliance logic if alliances are
disabled, no boating logic if transport boats are disabled, ...)
- Fix some of the "cannot send troops" messages in the console
(DonateTroopExecution)
- Nations build their first missile silo sooner, they should also build
more SAMs
- Nations spend their gold better after reaching the save-up-target
(previously they stopped nuking)
- Optimized save-up-targets for team games
- The richest impossible nation is nuking very dense players now (lot of
structure levels on a small island)
### How does a 5M gold HvN start look like now?

## Description:
- `AiAttackBehavior`: Because bots delete stolen structures now, nations
prioritize attacking bots with structures
- `NationMIRVBehavior`: Nations no longer MIRV enemies who already got
MIRVed in the last 30 seconds. Some humans complained about getting
double-MIRVed by nations. And in games with very high starting gold, ALL
nations MIRVed the same player (stop steamroll logic).
- `NationAllianceBehavior`: Fixes a comparison logic bug (Thanks to
Deshack)
- `NationNukeBehavior.ts`: Little atom bomb perceived cost balance
change
- `MIRVExecution`: To make sure the MIRVing nations are attacking the
MIRVed nations (even if they don't share a border), the relation gets
updated in both directions now.
- `SinglePlayerModal` & `HostLobbyModal`: Update the default difficulty
to "Medium" (to synchronize the defaults with the public game default)

## Description:
- **Nations now specifically target AFK players, traitors, and players
who are already being attacked (they gang up on them).** Depends on the
difficulty.
- Added ally assistance directly to the attack order (instead of calling
it separately beforehand).
- Added ally assistance to `findBestNukeTarget`.
- Removed some checks from `findBestNukeTarget` (not necessary; better
checks will follow in a dedicated nuking PR).
- Relation updates on attack now depend on difficulty (makes Easy &
Medium nations a bit easier).
- On betrayal, every nation in the game previously received a –40
relation penalty toward the betrayer. That was too extreme, so now this
only applies only to neighbors.
- Nations send fewer alliance requests now; it felt like too many
before.
- In team games, nations may now reject alliance requests more often
(depending on difficulty).
- To ensure there are enough non-friendly players to stop the crown with
nukes, nations may now reject alliance requests if the other player has
too many alliances (on Hard and Impossible difficulty).
- Rebalanced nation emoji usage a bit.
- Nations may now send an emoji when they get MIRVed.

## Description:
Previously, nations just spammed these two rather toxic emojis: 🤡😡
They now send fewer emojis while attacking, and the clown emoji is
reserved for special cases.
They got the ability to send emojis in much more cases:
- Human didn't donate enough for relation update
- Human did donate an ok amount
- Human did donate a lot
- Responding to emojis that they get sent from a human
- Nuke sent
- MIRV sent
- Retaliation warship sent
- Traitor tries to ally
- Threat asks for / accepts an alliance request
- Disliked human tries to ally
- Friendly human tries to ally
- They are getting attacked by very much troops
- They are getting attacked by very little troops
- Congratulating the winner
- Bragging with their crown
- Charming their allies
- Clown-Emoting traitors
- Easteregg: Sending a rat emoji to very small humans

## Description:
1. Players complained that they have problems allying with nations in
the earlygame. So I added an `isEarlygame()` check to
`AllianceBehavior`. This should make the easier difficulties much easier
:)
2. The attack order of nations now depends on the difficulty. Easy and
medium nations got dumbed down, they now take nuked territory before
retaliating against attacks again.
3. The attack rate now depends on the difficulty. Easy nations are
reacting slower than impossible nations (to make sure the number of sent
alliance requests stays the same I removed the difficulty check in
`maybeSendAllianceRequests()`).
4. On easy and medium difficulty nations will sometimes just skip an
attack if the enemy is a human (`shouldAttack()`). But this did not
apply for the nuking logic. Now it does, which makes the easier
difficulties a bit easier.
5. I tuned the `getBotAttackMaxParallelism()` method a bit. The nations
are doing a bit less parallel bot attacks now, which makes the easier
difficulties a bit easier.
6. The settings in MIRVBehavior now depend on the difficulty. On easy
difficulty, nations will only send MIRVs very rarely.
7. Unrelated MIRVBehavior Cleanup: There was a 2 second cooldown and
cache logic. But it was completely useless because `considerMIRV()` is
only called every 4-8 seconds by NationExecution. So I removed it.
8. Unrelated little cleanup: I made a couple of methods `private`

## Description:
1. Moved the currently very small betrayal logic from `AiAttackBehavior`
to `NationAllianceBehavior` because it makes more sense to have it
there.
3. Very small bugfix in `AiAttackBehavior::shouldAttack()`: the numbers
in the two `random.chance` calls were the wrong way round.
4. `NationExecution` was quite big and a lot of it was about MIRVs. So I
moved all the MIRV logic to the new `NationMIRVBehavior`.
5. `emoji()` and `maybeSendEmoji()` did not really fit in
`AiAttackBehavior`. So I moved it to the new `NationEmojiBehavior` (and
did some renaming for clarity). I'm planning to extend that class in a
future PR.
2. Reordered methods in `AiAttackBehavior` to easily find related
methods.
6. Reordered methods in `NationExecution` to easily find related
methods.
