@TheAshby they really should. I mean how many non-hive robots are their in scifi and Paradox is telling me I just can't do that, or have a civ that abandoned the weakness of their flesh before they left their home world?

PD: Lithoid robots are majestic

Thank you very much for your answer! I am also informing myself, Paradox should include a synthetic start origin as it already did with psionic ascension

Er not lithoid one of the others.

Yeah I think that was in the base mod. I could look into fixing that but I'm not insanely knowledgeable yet, I just knew enough to update this mod and did so (as far as I know) since I wanted to use the lithoid robot portraits.

It does not work completely well in stellaris 3.6.1, despite the species having synthetic ascension a priori, it does not allow you to choose the synthetic lore tree even if you already have the necessary technology (remember that if you are already synthetic, the ascension perk is not necessary of synthetic evolution, similar to how the Masters of the Veil origin works), when I try to take the synthetic tree, it asks me for the ascension perk and not the synthetic technology, which is what it should ask me for.
