Impossible too easy now?
first of all im using the latest ucp (UCP-S.0.6.3a) and ofc 5x

im playing on impossible again and after the recent changes (in the last year or so) it is too easy now..
the Psylon only beeing creative and not having any research bonus makes the suck in the competition most of the time now did u change that??
and even strong empires with 2x as much stars as me (like Humans, Meklars etc) are no competition in the research counter after 100 rounds so the longer the game goes the stronger i get over them (coz getting terraforming earlier and the likes only makes it snowball more and more)

what did u change on impossible and why the AIs are way worse now on research?
it is way too easy for me now sadly

Psilons definitely should have a research bonus. If they do not, then you may have a mod conflict. What's your full mod list?

I haven't made any significant difficulty changes in the last year. All AI still get double research on impossible.

well as said i have the UCP 6.3a (installed with the windows bat file) some days agao

in the mods there are the following:
1. Unofficial Code Patch
2. Unofficial Code Patch Steam Workshop
3. 5x UCP Compatibility Mod [5xCPC]
4. 5x - The Ultimate Balance Mod

all green active, thats it

i also noticed some techs changed like "Biosphere" is removed as it seems and "Atom rockets" are not baseline anymore, not sure if thats intended with some recent changes

Psylons are:
creative
25% credits
low grav
-25% ground combat
homeworld is rich

seems wierd without +50% on research ?

any help is appreaciated

ah i think i got it, the wrong order by not having 5x on top seem to destroy it all, now it seems back to normal, my fault

Indeed, should be
5X
UCP
5XCPC

or else everything gets messed up. If impossible is still too easy for you, I do have a mod that adds even higher difficulties:
