Quick Overview

The ai_minister command in Europa Universalis IV is used to turn on or off the AI (Artificial Intelligence) ministers in the game.

When disabled, these decisions or actions need to be manually done by the player.

In-Depth Description

The ai_minister command in Europa Universalis IV is used to enable or disable the AI ministers' control of various aspects of your country.

When you use this command, you switch the AI control on/off for diplomatic, economic, and military decisions.

This command can be helpful in various situations. If you feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of micromanagement required in the game, you can use this command to let the AI handle certain aspects of your nation.

For example, the AI can manage your economy, army, and diplomatic relations, leaving you to focus on strategy and national development.

Alternatively, you may wish to use this command if you want to experiment with different play styles. By toggling on the AI ministers, you can observe how the AI manages your country in each aspect and learn new strategies from it.
