I'm pretty jazzed about Ai initiating trades now, but I think there is something more that can make them feel more connected... Specifically a news ticker of sorts showing diplomatic developments, battles /results, colonization of planets, et c. not a big thing like your first whatever... More of just a little one min thing that cab be clicked to expand a drop down and show the full length of last few events. Maybe alliw it to be clicked to show details about the event if available
