Currently the files being edited in this mod are defines, ethics, and species_archetypes. Defines gives leader stats, Core Systems, and Ethic and Civic Points. Ethics changes Gestalt Consciousness to cost more. And finally species archetypes modifies the trait points. Everything in this mod used to be contained in the defines file, but recent updates split everything controling trait points to other files.

Been a while since I played Stellaris, so my modding structure is rusty. What's the file you're updating to give the Trait and Ethos points and leader stats? I'm not getting a translation over to my game so I likely have a mod conflict somewhere, wish to correct it.

I'm having a problem. Trying to use this breaks genetic modification later on: I don't get any points from any techs researched later on. Maybe I have a file conflict with another mod somewhere?

Very much appreciated!

It's tested, it works!

This should be fixed now. (Hopefully, haven't actually tested yet)

Thanks. I really enjoy both versions of your mod

Yeah, I've been notified. I'll fix it when I got time

Hi there, patch 1.8.2 seems to have broken the species trait points portion of this mod

NOt sure what happened with this mod but it breaks all my other mods now

Yes. It would kind of suck if it didn't, wouldn't it? lol

does this affect AI?

AIs should also work the same.

If it's a mod that adds custom portraits, name lists, species, and customizable things of the sort that you can create a custom race with, then it should work fine. If it adds a a pre-made default empire then no, it shouldn't.

Have you tested this with Custom Species/Races like the Nekomimi Paradise mod?

I have updated the mod to 1.8. If there are any bugs, it would be nice to know, I'm finding myself super busy and I don't have much time to playtest this.

Mmkay

I don't really see any reason why it would, it shouldn't

Does this require any DLC?

@Reduced Fat Goku, sounds like an excelent solution, completely agreed that the concept of hive minds should stay as it is, thanks a ton

kk cheers bud :).
guess ill stick with the all in one and more trait points mod,
(i like playing againest a sort of "god-like" race,,, so i like trying to see watch way works best to taking them out).

ofcourse being a god-race... they are hate anyone and everyone else, and to make it a tiny bit fairer i make them insanely slow breeders xD (sort of like king of the hill style gameplays)

anyways
cheers for the help awesome mod all the same tho :)

@1stReaper Yes, this mod should in fact effect every randomly generated AI empire. I did this on purpose as the game would be reeeeeealy unbalanced and dumb otherwise.

@viperfan7 I have updated the mod yet again to bring back the ethic points boost. I did not do this before because I felt it would break the concept of the hive minds having no other ethics. I did this by increasing the cost of the Hive Mind ethic, which may or may not make them super underpowered, but hey, what else could I do?

@RFG
does this effect the AI aswell ?

I am EXTREMELY busy this week, but I will see what I can do. I doubt I will have any free time at all until the weekend, but I guess making a mod for just ethic points doesn't sound too hard, so I'll try to do it at some point.

Maybe make a seperate mod for this mod that adds the extra ethics points back in, or have it as a seperate upload

Aw darnit, I didn't know this mod was broken too. Sorry for not saying anything in the description, but to use the mod you need to enable the 1.5.1 beta. Once 1.5.1 offically comes out you'll be fine but until then this mod is broken in the 1.5.0 release.

i dont think this mod works :S
when i make a new race

racial traits only has
2 points left
5 picks left

ethic points are 3 and civic picks are 2 :S :<

Just so you know a new update came out so your gonna need to update this mode. TY :D

thank you very much.

It should be working completly fine now, just updated.
