Animated Portraits - The Hidden Eye (Unofficial 2.1.3 Fix)

Description
Original mod by Silfae here (for pictures and details): https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1168459329

As this excellent mod has been seemingly abandoned, and it was still mostly in working condition except for a weirdly annoying graphical bug that removed the rooms of AI empires, I decided to create an unofficial fix. This was for personal use at first, but I am uploading it for those who don't wish to fiddle with modding yet wanted to play this with the current version. All credit belongs to Silfae, and if requested by the original modder or if there is an update, I will remove this mod.

This fix modifies two things compared to the original version:

The custom room (which was seemingly the root source of the aforementioned bug) has been removed. Unfortunate, but I am not skilled enough as an amateur modder to figure what exactly is wrong with it and why it is causing the disappearing AI room bug. The scripted Empire now uses the Decadent Hierarchy room instead. This has seemingly solved the issue.

Secondly, Parasitic Evolution now properly requires one of the following ethics: Authoritarian, Fanatic Authoritarian, Xenophobe, Fanatic Xenophobe. Not picking one of these ethics broke the civic in the original mod, so it was necessary to make them mandatory.

The rest of the mod has been left as it is, as my testing indicates that the other features apparently work fine.

Nope, I failed completely. I don't have the intelligence to fix it.

Any progress?

I wish you luck with it. If it gets done, please feel free to link it here so that anyone seeking an up-to-date version can find it more easily.

Well, it's time for me to take a crack at it. Someone fixed Servitor Morale, so I can use that code. Wish me luck.

Do you think you'll ever take another crack at it? Replacing the Tile system with the Job system isn't THAT hard, is it?

This Mod is amazing. I am very sad that it no longer works in V2.2 and beyond.

Does it work for 2.2+

Given the highly complicated nature of the original mod, I will not be updating this to 2.2 anytime soon. However, I might eventually make a successor for the Parasitic Evolution civic (though it has to be radically changed due to the pop overhaul) once I learn enough about the new system.

Silfae was hired by Paradox? Thats great news! For him, I hope he can make more official portraits, As for these, I do hope to find a Single mod that 'updates' the entire series.

Since it seems you aren't aware, the modder was Hiried by PDX, so he doesn't work on these anymore, good chance he isn't allowed to do this anymore. But anyway excellent work and all that, thank you for doing something for this mod, also i love handsome jack so add me back if you want, i mostly thought you were cool.
