Donofett's Gene Seed Purification - Primarchs [for Stellaris v4.0]

Description
Have you ever wanted Bio Ascension to do more?
Have you ever wanted to create the ultimate biological super leader?
Have you wanted to LARP as the Imperium of Man?
I know I have! So introducing...

Donofett's Gene Seed Purification - Primarchs
Features:
An edict is unlocked once an empire has bio-ascended (Genetic ascension for Utopia, or Purity ascension for Biomorphosis) AND researched Gene Seed Purification, which brings up an event to select the desired leader class for the Primarch, after which a situation starts. The situation progress is a percent out of 100, with progress going faster with more monthly society research and progress going slower with greater empire size.

Once complete, the Primarch becomes an immortal leader in your empire. Depending on their leader class, they get one of three incredibly powerful Primarch leader traits, and Primarchs inherit any species traits that apply to leaders (i.e. psionic, cybernetic, erudite). See mod images for the exact stats on the leader traits!

Primarchs are made from your main species.

Initial Primarch skill level starts at a base of level 4, then modified by initial skill level bonuses. For instance, if you have Distinguished Admiralty (+2 Commander skill level), then a Primarch Commander would start at level 6.

Compatibility
No vanilla files were harmed in the making of this mod, so it SHOULD be compatible with everything.
Deliberately designed to allow for multiple ascension path mods, so you can have psionic, cybernetic, and erudite Primarchs.

Credit to PIECAT for talking me through scoping, while I was busy being an idiot XD

If you notice any bugs or weirdness, please let me know. I can't possibly find all of them.
This mod requires you to have Utopia to unlock bio ascension, and Galactic Paragons for the advanced leader traits.

Would it be hard to add this for hive mind as well?

Can you provide a link to the old version 3.14? The 4.0 version is currently too unstable and I plan to stay in the old version for a while (。・ω・。)

Note: You need either Utopia OR Biogenesis in addition to Galactic Paragons, since you still have to follow a bio-ascension.

Updated to 4.0!

Scrapped the idea of the Primarch trait scaling with your Genetic Perfection, couldn't think of a way to have it be remotely balanced.

Also some bug fixes (such as empires with Crusader Spirit not giving commandant primarchs the Crusader trait, or Technocracies not giving their primarchs an expertise)

Thank you for the 4.0 update. This mod is great :):steamhappy:

Update in the final stages, and if you have Biogenesis (still works without Biogenesis as long as you have Utopia like normal), Primarchs will require the Purity path to be created. However, the effects of their trait will scale with their Species Genetic Perfection!

...although it needs some balancing, considering that while testing a Primarch commander very easily hit somewhere around +50 planet stability and about +245% more army damage lol

Not yet; it's on my to-do list.

Does the mod work with 4.0?

BTW if you decide to nerf primarchs can you please make it a separate version?
