Building Cap Removal 2.3+

For those who asked for it; here is a version of Building Cap Removal that affects most buildings in the game. I warn you, it's stupidly broken. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2021540290

I should have replied to this weeks ago, but oh well.

Changing autocthon monuments is a bit of sticking point, namely as I have to ask the question, what is the impact?

For autocthon monuments, I don’t think it’s that much. What you get is more unity and society research, both of which can be gained from either holotheaters and society labs, so there’s other ways to get these resources. Okay, that’s fine, but none of the other buildings the mod changes affect resources (that much, I’ll admit, changing bureaucratic complexes really sits on the line).

But at the end of the day, there’s ways to get around the cap of one autocthon monument per world and the upgrades the autocthon monument gets are powerful enough, so I don’t think I’ll be changing autocthon monuments without a strong argument for it. The effects (in this case, resources) they give can be obtained in other ways and they have rather powerful upgrades (compared to clinics)

any chance of getting autochthon monuments uncapped?

huh... so now it's at the bottom of the list... bottom is first... for whatever bloody reason. ANYWAY, BCR is the first mod loaded now... but alas, gene clinics remain limit 1. ah well.

huh. alrighty. thanks.

CookiesnM1lk, another mod is modifying the same buildings as building cap removal. It's changes to the gene clinic overwrite my changes, and while there is a work around, but as I've stated below it'll take far more effort that originally thought to pull off.

In the mean time, you can try changing the position of building cap removal in your load order so that the changes it makes are in effect, however, this will stop the other mod from working.

gene clinics have stopped being unlimited for me. strange.

That would be a much harder undertaking than what the mod currently does (currently it redefines the buildings with one line of scripting missing, the line that defines the limit). What I can do (and will be included once the new launcher is working) is to lower the AI's priority of it to 0 after the first one (I did lower the priorities after the first building anyway, but this makes it clear it's not enough.)

Changing the caps on buildings on the fly is, I believe, theoretically feasible, looking at other mods on the workshop. The issue is is that would require a custom menu in game... and a lot of scripting.

Ostensibly, I want to say yes, I could do it. Fact is, with my free time, I couldn't deliver it. Reworking the mod so that it adds a copy of each building as a way to deal with other mods overwriting my simple edit will take a lot more effort that I first imagined. I can't begin to estimate how much extra work it would be to do this cap changing.

I've noticed that almost every empire tends to build almost only gene clinics, leading to a heavy lack of consumer goods. Is it possible to add an options for how many can be built on each planet, or maybe options for which of the buildings in the description have no limits? (So for example you can keep the gene clinic cap but have cloning labs have no cap)
