lol

After testing, shipyards gives +0.4% hull points per day to ships, so a 0 hp ship would be 100% in 250 (except obviously, 0 means kaboom).

The Living Ships trait heals ships hulls (but no armor) as if they were in a shipyard, permanently (doesn't seem to apply in battle but unclear, someone showed me a DEFINE and it seems all healing outside of combat is 5* healing in combat. Still, 1250 days to heal a ship, in a battle, doesn't seem that big).

Except Living Ships is at 0.5%, so even better than shipyards. Only 200 days to heal the ship.
After these tests and considering the speed of healing, I AM SLIGHTLY NERFING THE TRAIT, from 0.5 to 0.4, which is still pretty good for a cost 1 trait.

Go visit shipyards to heal your armor and double your hull healing, or just use shields and no armor.

Thank you Redbeard for sending me on this goose chase. :)
Granhyt  [author] 23 May @ 12:27pm 
According to the code, it's 0,5%, and on the empire creation screen, it says "Daily Hull Regeneration : +0,5%.

I would think it's just a misnommer, but ingame it shows as +90% daily hull regen, while basic ships have +40% daily armor regen (and hull regen).

I'll ask to other people, I'm a bit confused and unsure if it's normal or if it changed.
REDbeard 23 May @ 3:01am 
Hey bud, the Living Ships trait is showing up in my empire's modifier list as giving +50% to daily hull regen. I'm hoping the glitch/error is with the text and not the effect of the trait lol

Unless something went really weird, and as far as I know it hasn't, the "empire-wide" traits (like Aggressive or Living Ships, for example) will apply on the first day of the new year. The mod checks if your empire dominant species has new traits or lost some, and adjust the empire modifiers according to it.

Thats awesome, thank you :)
Granhyt  [author] 17 May @ 5:00am 
@Lava : It has been tested by GhostFox and it does work.
On a code perspective, there is no special tag to block traits away from being applied by Evolutionary Predators. Eat all you want. :)
Lava 16 May @ 8:38am 
will these traits get automatically applied in evolutionary predators?
Granhyt  [author] 10 May @ 4:51am 
Ascetic isn't blocking the others unity traits, and that was by design. Especially since it's a pretty costly trait, so taking it and Traditional would cost 4 points ... interesting but means neglicting many non-unity bonuses.
I think it is fine, but it's a recent trait, compared to many others, so all I can really say about balance is that nobody complained yet. ^^"
Granhyt  [author] 10 May @ 4:47am 
Maybe I'll have to add a bit of text in the description and not rely on the automatic/paradox provided descriptions, it's a good point. I'll keep that in mind.

In my experience, the unity traits were rather strong, compared to traits like Rooted/Pionners which are fun but don't have much impact over a game. But not as impactful as pop growth bonus/malus, for sure.
Anyway, I'm far from playing meta, so I am probably missing massive things. Like the robotic Swarm trait,

And part of me want to put the "unity to all jobs" even on the vanilla traits. But some bureaucrats jobs provide more bonus than plan unity, and for those non-unity ressources, the vanilla traits will boost the production.
I guess it will need for the player to consider more carefully which trait to take.
