Update: Having only this mod enabled still results in inability to produce special resources on planet. Something went very wrong in a recent update to the mod

Currently cannot produce special resources (motes, gases, etc) on planets. When I disabled this mod it began working

THank you!

@doctornull
That did it. Thank you!

@Azriel Ragia - try telling Steam to verify the integrity of Stellaris game files, that also forces it to refresh out-of-date mods

@Guiliman. Good Sir and/or Madam. The one whose Mod I cannot play without. My launcher is still telling me this is for version 3.13. Is this true or is my display lying to me and this is playable right now?

Good call, ill prevent that modifier from spawning if those mods are detected.

Hey idk if you were still interested in doing compatability with Planetary Diversity and Real Space but one thing I've noticed is this mod adds a tidally locked modifier with no graphical element whereas both of those mods have tidally locked worlds as distinct subclasses with graphics. Creates a kinda weird inconsistency, it'd be nice if that modifier was disabled if either of those mods were detected. Might be a lot of work for a small nitpick tho, only affects immersion and not gameplay.

I don't think there will be any issues to use those mods together with my mod. I'm pretty sure in fact. Maybe worst thing that can happen is that the AI still does archeology on my own precursor dig sites. But that would be it

@Guilliman
Would your mod work without adversely interacting with these 3 mods that also touch on precursors/archaeology sites?
1) 'More Precursors' in kroun's Workshop - This mod adds 3 new precursors.

2) 'Prevent AI from Discovering Archaeology Sites...' and its sister mod,
3) 'Disable AI Archaeology... Exploration' both in 小咕咚's Workshop.
I'm considering to use one of the two to allow me to complete a precursor chain, which is often hard to do.
Any insight how well or bad the interaction of your mod with the above, would be much appreciated!

@Guilliman It doesn't seem like the science ship "further investigation" type events that add system resources like science actually get added.

@provenSin, thanks for letting me know. I've done a search and found a few forgotten modifiers. They'll get correct amenities values next update (later today)

The Elder Planet Modifier "Primitive Reserve" with +25 Amenities is underwhelming.

tnx fr the answer and for the update!

if you're also playing with other big mods like NSC it's recommended to also use the modifier mod. It's not needed if you just play with my mod and most other mods. I'll add it to the description

"* Updated economic categories file overwrites (still recommend to also download the economic categories mod )"

what and where is this?

@clone, what empire ethics and civics did you have? That didnt happen to me in my test runs (just UNE testing) so im wondering what might influence it unexpectedly.

Deposits were toned down a bit in my previous update, it might still be a bit too RNG dependent but ill see in time.

The balanced option doesnt seem balanced for the game start. On your normal regular empire you start with a negative food and mineral income and +- 0 energy. Building yourself out of it with just 200 minerals is a bit pointless.

Maybe if using the balance option, just give everyone a flat 25 income bonus for food, minerals and energy so they can start the game.

And yeah, its insane how many resources there are. Pretty much every star system has lots of minerals, energy + a bit of space food.

I love this mod but I hate the little James Webb telescope so much lol. I know it's an extremely dumb nitpick but it feels kinda visually distracting and inconsistent, and why would a 200 year old telescope be worth singling out with a huge text label in a system full of huge space constructs.

Maybe it could just be labelled JWT on the map so as to not be as visually distracting?

Yesss, I am so excited to see this update, thank you Guilliman!

I'm also glad you've considered compatibility with the Planet Diversity mod - thanks!
Since I don't see a Compatibility Section here, I wonder how good your mod would interact with these mods that also touch on precursors/archaeology sites:
'More Precursors' in kroun's Workshop - This mod adds 3 new precursors.
'Prevent AI from Discovering Archaeology Sites...' and its sister mod, 'Disable AI Archaeology... Exploration' both in 小咕咚's Workshop. I'm considering to use one of the two to allow me to complete a precursor chain. Almost always, I miss an precursor site which is located in another empires territory.
Any insight how to use your mod with the above, would be much appreciated!

woohoo 4.0!!

megacorp survey events still need to be tweaked, but it is nice to have most of the good stuff back.

Thank you so much Guilli! This is my favorite mod and I've been checking almost everyday to see if it was updated

I was sitting here kinda grumpy that nothing seemed to have changed or been fixed.

turns out steam and/or the paradox launcher just chose to not update it. working now. thanks for the hard work man!

Do the AIs do better without the balance stuff?

Honestly I want the AIs to be a bit stronger in the mid-to-late game.

Without them I find that you get way too many resources too fast, within 40 years you can cap out your storages. With this setting it's a lot more balanced and you have to think about balancing your resources and building which I find much more fun.

Up to you really :)

Should I turn on the balance changes? They are off by default, but it says they'll be gone when the game itself is more balanced, it's somewhat irritating for me... :)

Neat. Thank you.

not sure if world terraforming modifier comes from this mod but if yes its absolute useless for wilderness who after purity have unlimited districts so maybe a swap needed if its from this mod

welcome back

I Love this mod, great work <3

Lets gooo!! Appreciate the update!

Noo! My beloved Archeo Planets! I'll miss you so!

But the rest is very nice and I'm happy the mod is ready for 4.0.

THX!!!

Thank you Guilliman!

WE ARE BACK BBYYY

thanks a bunch for the update boss

Only one word
GEART!

Thank you very much

Awesome

We're Back Boys!

What is the economic categories mod?
From the changelog "(still recommend to also download the economic categories mod)"

Yay!

Incredible! I can finally start my 4.0 run, thank you so much.

Thanks for the update. Stellaris feels so much worse without this mod.

Thank you so much for updates!

LETS GOOO

i love u Guilliman

You really don't know what you have until you don't have it. I was trying out 4.0 and the planets felt so flat and lifeless playing without this mod. Really appreciate the hard work you do modding.
