Arc Furnace System Locator +

Trouble figuring out the best system to build your Arc Furnace or Dyson Swarm in while playing Stellaris: The Machine Age? This mod will help!

Adds an "Ideal System Locator" decision to your capital planet once you've unlocked the ability to build one of the supported megastructures or starbase buildings. This creates an event pop-up with options to search for the following:

• Minor Megastructure Notification Settings: Options to enable notifications for when you build/upgrade a Hyper Relay, Arc Furnace, or Dyson Swarm
  
• Arc Furnace: The top 5 systems you own which will get the most deposits added if you build an Arc Furnace in them.
  
• Dyson Swarm: Up to 7 stars with the largest energy or research deposits for a Dyson Swarm, plus the star with the largest deposit of each other resource if you own a star with it. (Note: Due to scripting limitations, this function is only capable of evaluating deposits that exist in the base game. If you're running a mod that adds larger star deposits, it won't see them.)
  
• Central Habitat Complex: Up to 8 systems which will get the most districts of various types if you build a habitat in them. (Note: Due to scripting limitations, this function is only capable of evaluating deposits that exist in the base game. If you're running a mod that adds special orbital deposits, it won't see them.)
  
• Nanite Harvester: The top 5 systems you own which will get the most deposits added if you build a Nanite Harvester in them. (Note that this is not necessarily the same as the ones that will produce the most nanites/ships when they reach full potential.)
  
• Ice Mining Station: The top 5 systems you own which will support the most Expand Planetary Sea decisions if you build an Ice Mining Station in them.
  
• Quantum Catapult: The 5 systems you own closest to your capital that you can build a Quantum Catapult in.

Exactly which system is the best may still partially depend on what deposits they already have, but this makes finding your top contenders much easier.

This mod is a simple quality-of-life utility with no gameplay changes or script overwrites, so it should be compatible with all other mods (unless they change how any of these structures work). It can also be safely added to, or removed from, ongoing games.

This mod is not* achievement-compatible. *(At least not while enabled, but since it only evaluates systems without changing anything you can copy the save and load the game with the mod, check your systems, and then exit and reload with the mod disabled again if you're willing to fiddle with save files.)
