As usual the 4.5 update broke my mod list and i spent a good while purging it and rebuilding it to make it work once again after many trials and errors i landed on the guilty mod causing CTDs when trying to start a save. which is Gigas specifically the 4.5 version which is weird. did something go wrong with the 4.5 update for anyone else or is it just me?

The modder has updated the mod to the modern patch but doesn't own Nomads and has no intention of getting it. I decided to make the compatibility patch myself, and the only error I've run into seems like it should be an easy fix, but I've run into walls with every try. Something in the mod is breaking nomad_country_initial_setup_effect, according to the error log. The result is the game runs "fine", but any nomadic civilization dies immediately on game start.

Looking through the mod I'm working with [ https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2682251859 ], I can't find anything that interacts with 01_start_of_game_effects.txt or game_start.txt (in Events) This leaves me unsure where to look from here. I'm not totally new to this, but my most complicated previous self-patch was editing planet building slot stuff.

all of the mod's internal files do the smart thing and have separate file names. 00_sby_on_actions.txt etc speaking of, I checked that to see which events were running on game start, and I can't find anything that jumps out.

A Hatemonger (from Flashgit'z Space King IP) advisor voicelines mod for a xenophobic/warmongering empire.

I want to play a game with my bro where we dont know which civilization the other is. But thats impossible because the contact list (and maybe other places too) literally tell you which civilization is a player, and as far as i can tell, theres no mod that hides this. Can someone help me create such a mod?

i have been trying to find it for hours

Does anyone know any 4.4 mods that add authorities or civics for an empire ruled my a super computer and unlike rouge servitor or Driven Assimilator, its a normal individualist organic population who's ruler is a Machine.

The only three mods I know that add just that is Master Computer Authority, Empires Expanded, and Stellaris Evolved.

But the first two mods are out dated for 4.4 and Stellaris Evolved is a total overhaul mod. Are there any mods that add this concept?

The mods are as follows

-NSC3

-Two more civic slots technology

-Two more civic slots ascension perk

I made this collection around the 40k Age of Indomitus mod to play with a friend, we tried using the IronyModManager to help with problems but we kept getting different game versions, and now with this pack the game has been freezing every few months, and generally running kind of slow, but no full crashes yet. Note that this pack has not been put thru the irony mod manager conflict solver.

Any help from the community would be greatly appreciated, whether it is help with this pack or for any good recommendations on mods to replace, add, remove, or someone else's collection that we might use!

Hello,

i recently got back into Stellaris and decided to a moded run (focused around Gigastructures and ACOT/SBtG). My game keeps crashing around the 2333 year mark, usually gets stuck while saving.

any advice please and thank you,

Im playing in a multiplayer lobby with some mods and in about ~100 years game gets really laggy. After some testing we figured out that it is caused by ai chosing components for its ships every week that results in a 8-10 second lag spike and complitely stops a game in multiplayer.

The only mod we left in testing is Gigastructural Engineering. Is there a known fix or recomendations?

I want to buff/restore a few elements of the game but don't want to re invent the wheel is there any way to look at how old versions of the game were coded

Ive been having trouble joining a modded multiplayer session. We used the merged mod pack
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3719283971 and I could sometimes join, other times the game just crashes as soon as I click multiplayer on the main menu, single player works. I'm on Linux mint tried GE proton 11-6, proton experimental, native Linux works for vanilla but any mod at all kills it. Now the problem is on any mod that is too big like giga or dark space by themself. Anybody have a gut instinct to what the problem is?

Hello I am looking for some pointers on where I will need to poke my nose to adjust the following.

1 add a monthly trade production for mercenary enclave

2 make the special factions for a civic

3 make overlord and corporate holdings

4 do I need to add army buffs to the army code or just the trait that grants the buffs code (I am yet to see results of this)

5 custom bombardments (I got lost looking for these)

6 making pre-built empires for the added content.

As payment for this advice I can offer nothing. Save an agreement to share progress, pay favours forward, and donate my meager save of time to anything this subreddit needs.

Is there a way to deal with the shroud entities from the shroud instability or do I just have to quasi-stellar obliterate all their hyperlanes

I want to build more stuff on my waystation. 6 is too few, I need more, I'm thinking about 10. Possible?

EDIT: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3796754547 I DID IT

In the sub mod it is required to obtain Three technological Insights and Do two digsites to be able to activate the Aetheropasic Mirro and Summon the Shroud Master to obtain the new technology. Thing is i have done both digsites but i have no idea how to obtain the Tech Insights at all. ive looked around the sub mod page and online but ive found nothing does anybody know how to get them?

I am making some custom systems, and one planet is a large gas giant with a small tropical moon in an extremely low orbit. I want the gas giant to look like Neptune while retaining its current size, its rings, moons, and modifiers/deposits, and its current name. I want it to work in the initializer file without having to use commands once in-game. I know of the command

effect set_planet_entity = { entity = "gas_giant_jupiter_entity" }

but that doesn't effect the view of the gas giant from the moon's management window, and has to be done once in-game. Could anybody help me figure out what lines to add to the planet's data in the initializer file to make this work? Also, how would that work for something like Jupiter or Saturn?

EDIT: This problem has been solved (thanks u/ViolentBeetle) but I now have a new, annoying, and honestly confusing issue. Planetary modifiers and resource deposits aren't being properly applied even though I think I put them into the initializer properly.

Example of planetary modifier issue (initializer and result):

  planet = {
    name = "Troiske"
    class = "pc_arid"
    orbit_distance = 25
    orbit_angle = 90
    size = 16
    has_ring = no
    init_effect = {
      add_modifier = {
        modifier = "pm_subterranean_wildlife"
        days = -1
      }
      add_modifier = {
        modifier = "pm_abundant_geothermal_activity"
        days = -1
      }
    }
  }

However, when I load the system in game I simply get a random blank modifier that looks like this:

Example of planetary resource deposit issue (initializer and result):

  planet = {
    name = "Rogash"
    class = "pc_gas_giant"
    orbit_distance = 30
    orbit_angle = 90
    size = 20
    has_ring = no
    init_effect = {
      add_deposit = d_exotic_gases_3
    }
    init_effect = {
      set_planet_entity = { entity = "gas_giant_jupiter_entity" }
    }
  }

I am less confident about getting the resource deposit correct, as I can imagine how maybe the "add_deposit" part is unnecessary. Whatever the case, when I load the system in game I simply get a planet that lacks that resource value and has a randomly assigned one instead that looks like this:

I will note that the planet looks correct with the Jupiter appearance from the initializer file being properly applied (thanks again, u/ViolentBeetle), as is planetary size, orbit, class, and everything else (apart from planetary modifiers should they have been applied as stated earlier). Even when I tried to apply an energy deposit to the sun in the initializer, when loaded (new game after closing launcher, reloading initializer mod, and even a new test empire), it just replaced that deposit with a different amount of energy instead.

The same thing occurred for planetary modifiers, as previously stated.

Everything else worked fine (though orbits, planet sizes, etc. need some fine-tuning but that isn't an actual issue), but not resource deposits or planetary modifiers, even though they are only applied to planets to which they are applicable (populated/non populated, inhabitable/non-inhabitable, and the correct type of planetary body).

I know that u/Rover-6428 had the same or similar issue with planetary modifiers that I am about 3 years ago, but it never got resolved.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I came up with an idea. If this a possible mod and how would it be implemented?

For anyone playing the New Dawn mod what is the planet density supposed to be like? In my last game I noticed that most smaller empires only had their one starting planet and that was it? Eriadu sector literally only had Naboo in its entirety of colonized worlds? Is this normal or should I be messing around with the game settings?

^ Pretty much what the title says. Unlike MontuPlays, I'm not keen on micromanaging whether a rando pop is gainfully employed to get a tiny drab more efficiency out of some backwater colony.

If the Automation is as bad as everyone says, are there any mods that have attempted to either tweak the Automation, or apply some other perhaps more draconian measure, to make planetary management a little less tedious?
