Don't expect the beyond the gates update, this mods a bit different however so I'm looking forward to it.

ACOT just updated as a heads up so we can hopefully see this great mod updated soon along with beyond the gates.

Also you should be able to ask them to give you the system through the situation log. They never declined it with me.

If you have Dark Matter tech and they ask you to teach them, you can list one of those systems as the price. Alternatively, conquer them.

I don't think I've ever been able to access the content of this mod very far before some AI has ruined or colonized Celeste and Golden Archives because of course they both spawned on the opposite side of the galaxy, is there anyway to get the mod content when that occurs?

@Arthur sounds like integer overflow. That's the game's limitations. You can't have too much hp or hp regen on your ship, otherwise it gets deleted from the game.

why do my herculeans keep disappearing when i upgrade them to theta class?

@CLUCKINGAMER496 make sure to read the events and what's in the situation log
@Ermenlias that can very well happen if you don't do the event chain properly

@CLUCKINGAMER496 How did you even managed that? You sure it is not a vanilla shroud entity like the End of the Cycle?

How do i stop The shroud master from destroying my empire?

@Faded damn, didn't expect a response so quickly. Thank you for the help, I greatly appreciate it!

@Custos-Tenebris Archivan if a custom country type possesses the all_technology_module, then they will have access to theta technologies that they can use in auto-generated designs.

I have added the country types from both of these mods to the cannot_use_theta trigger, so now the issue should be fixed.

So I've been encountering a bug with this mod and others that gives star bases Theta level technology. Ex. Shadow Gate and The Sleeper 3. Would this be a problem with this mod or the others, and if so what fixes would be recommended besides messing with the load order. (As I've already done so) Regardless, I can't wait to start my play-through with this mod, and I hope whoever reads this has a excellent day!

@[S!C] CC Gloomwalker either that, or by event in Acquisition of Technologies where you could get your own Vault without starting conflict with the Corps.
You'll need a LOT of Land Armies.

How do I get the Phanon reactor? Do I fight the corps for it?

@samsockeater gestalts only need their cognitive node to be at level 10+.

does this work for gestalts? going to assume no on basis of very psychic-y but for the sake of my beloved toasters i should ask i reckon

There was an origin which let you start with a mirror and 3 soul spheres. What happened with that?

Autocannon and afterburner are weaker than runic

Is it possible to unlock buildings at the same time as weapons.... maybe there is a console command?

@[S!C] CC Foehn Viod sphere is from the main ACOT mod, but anyways.
You need to settle on the Fractured World, that will unlock tech to survive on it and clear its blockers.
Once on Alpha tier, you'll be able to research Enigmatic world creation tech.
Fractured world cleared from blockers and hostile entities through decisions and land battles, can be turned into Enigmatic worlds.
(Once you've turned one fractured world into an Enigmatic one, you unlock ability to terraform worlds into it instantly with the Emissary)
Then you get a research to turn the Enigmatic world into a Void Sphere.
It'll cost a lot, and take something like three years, and require a Precursor Orbital ring to be build around the world.

How do I get void spheres?
This really needs a detailed guide :/

Cool mod

Whats the command to start the event?

@BroncoXeno2035 Thanks for the info! I have the SotS - Theta reactor researched, and the related research of it are popping up. Do you think I should still go for sigma? Are there any Stellarite resources needed in SotS?

@EliteNoob Sigma Tech < SotS Tech < Secrets Beyond the Gates Light Tech

Hi. This is my first time playing ACOT, AOT, and this mod. Is the stellarite tech (sigma) more powerful, or the weapons from his mod more powerful? How about the light tech?

@Faded Thanks for the quick reply! Got it.

@EliteNoob you won't get the event chain until some time after you acquire phanon reactors. and no, that would not remove the event chain.

Can someone please make a guide for this? I enabled the mod, but still feels like playing the vanilla game. Also, the golden achieve was taken by another empire. I used the cheat code to claimed it, but nothing popped up (like anomoly). Does it mean the event chain is gone?

I was wondering why I can't choose "earn Phanon Coins". It shows that "There is no revenue for earning Phanon Coins at the moment". How to deal with this?

yes it is

I take it since no one has asked so far that this is working fine with the new update?

@BerthNerd no. It has to do with the stellaris engine itself. DOn't go above 922 million after your modifiers and you'll be fine.

Just do the math backwards and you should be able to figure it out correct.

Is there any defines mod, that manages to prevent fleet power and armor/shield value overflow with this mod?

@marcus that has been fixed, ty

@Shikanoko
leader_trait_acot_curator_archon

Can i know the Trait id of the Archon?

I have a bug where every time i load the saved game the curator turn hostile and prevent me from getting the Archon. don't worry it has nothing to do with your mod

it just that i am forcing to add the trait to the leader myself since it irreversible

Ran into an issue where jobs wouldn't produce any resources. I tracked the problem down to how this scaling modifier is implemented:

produces = {
physics_research = 1500
engineering_research = 1500
society_research = 1500
unity = 1500
influence = 6
trigger = {
has_gigastructures = yes
}
multiplier = planet.value:giga_job_scaling_plus_base
}

The trigger is applied to the base resources as well, so unless "has_gigastructures = yes" the job will not produce anything.

@Faded Awesome to hear, and also clever of you to do it that way.

@Baka Racker they work like dig sites. so you dont need to colonize the planets, just claim the systems.

Do you have to colonize either of the planets to follow the event chain? I'm playing a Frameworld game and just had this occur to me, but am just shy of midgame.

It's alright, the Science Ship Automation found it under the other site

@Dino Gazz you can access it through the situation log

Say what Do I do if another Archaeological site spwans on Eden within Golden Archives?

@shizo yaaaay outer ring: a deep space mmo

in serious, i have been slowly fixing some of the localisation to make more sense in areas. and perhaps the stages of the megastructure could stand to have some cooler names lol. i'll give it some thought.

maybe fix the localization, its all named outer, middle, inner "Rung" should't that be Ring?

@Mechanized00 no special interactions. though, the science insights might be a bit easier since you can access the chosen one trait.

Thanks! Do you get any advantages/special interactions?

@Mechanized00 you do not
