To-do and Ideas:
– Use separate skill icons for military (ranks), science (degrees), and politics (achievements).
– Add more ways to gain XP.
– Passive XP gain (needs revision).
– More traits.
– Make governors generate a very minuscule amount of influence based on their level. Very small increase in income and minerals based on level.
– Make scientists generate a very minuscule amount of research based on their level. Increase in scanning speed and anomaly chance based on level.
