1: society research for Pacifist Empires or via completing the enigmatic fortress event chain
2: Enigmatic Escape
3: 35% chance for Defense Plattforms to disengage battle and return to the Starbase after the battle
4: to make defense plattforms more competetive and cheaper

1: engineering research
2: Autonomous fortification
3: allows to construct multiple defense plattforms at once (Star hold 1, Star fortress 2, Citadel 3); +25% defense plattform build speed
4: to fix the super slow build of defense plattforms in the late game when you have like 25-40 defense plattforms to build

Buff to Eternal Vigilance:
+25% chance for Defense Plattforms to disengage battle and return to the Starbase after the battle
If its to overpowered in your opinion maybe nerf it a bit with -10% fleet capacity

Buff to Grasp the Void:
+50% Starbase upgrade speed
+1 defense plattforms construction at once
Currently its an ascension perk not worth picking
