It's abandoned friends, and I still haven't figured out how to program this shit

Any updating?

Is there an updated version of this?? I got my hopes up for nothing it seems :c

I have no idea how, I work with 3D models and Node Graphs like Neos VR and Unity/UDON

Really isn't, but if you want to update, that's fine by me.

Can we get this for 3.1 please? im not sure it's compatible anymore due to the huge changes. I really wanna be able to have slaves as a xenophile authoritarian

New edition is in development for 2.6

This seems to still work in 2.2, ignoring the glitched flavor text.

Probably breaks a number of things in varyingly-subtle ways, given the changes in 2.2.

Working with 2.2? Update or not, could I load this and have it work?

This going to be updated for 2.2?

@Turtleshroom
You can just take the more extreme version of xenophiles
"Oh my, that alien species looks so appealing, I must have one"

@TurtleShroom
If you prefer, you can consider the "universal caste system" angle — that is, an Uberclesian working in the mines is treated exactly the same as a Vansterosian working in the mines. Neither of them may be treated well compared to an Uberclesian working in a research lab, but that's beside the point.

Does this mod interfere with "((A Better Diplomacy: Opinions))" ?

The other mod is specifically about AI Opinions, and this mod says that Egalitarians hate Slavery. Hating slavery makes sense (if you're Egalitarian) but I'm concerned there may be a file clash...

@AFK

I still don't see it. Xenophiles see other aliens as their equals, friends, and fellow citizens. Yes, I fully agree that Authoritarian Xenophiles would have the "all serve the State" (etc. etc,) mindset and not allow _anyone_ political freedom, but I still don't see it.

---------------

@OP

It's a stretch, but I can see the angle... somewhat, though not enough to change my mind.

Or "My goodness, your slaves are so _exotic_! Wherever did you buy them?"

@TurtleShroom
Authoritarian xenophiles. "Every species has a place in our empire, and all serve the State as best they can; some serve better with their muscles than with their brains."

Xenophiles enslaving aliens makes no sense. That defeats the point of being Xenophiliac.

Yaaay!

Now that my internet is (finally) connected at the new house, I'll be looking at updating. Thanks for the patience.

Please update this mod! it's great!

Still working?

Hunks for specific changes that seem to clobbered there are as follows:

[2.0.2] Egalitarian ethics effect on faction influence increased from +15%/30% to +25%/50%

[2.0.2] Militarist ethics now gain -10%/-20% war exhaustion gain instead of army damage bonus.

[2.0.2] Gestalt Consciousnesses now get less piracy risk.

(including also "'country_war_exhaustion_mult = -0.2' for gestalts" diff)

Hope that helps!

> In the base archive, what's the revision.file say for the build number?

Not sure which "base archive" do you mean, as I don't have that file in Steam install of Stellaris (note: on linux) and there doesn't seem to be such file packed with the mod.

Here's the diff from current 2.0.3 00_ethics.txt though:
https://gist.github.com/mk-fg/ccb23c2b3f394701dbee9d9e0b783891

I'll take another look in a bit, though I'm working on the .3 update at present. Those are likely wild edits/uncommented for whatever reason.

In the base archive, what's the revision.file say for the build number? It's just a text file with a different extension.

No, 2.0.3 wasn't out when I wrote that comment.
Ran a diff for overidden files vs 2.0.2, and you can find changes mentioned in changelog before 2.0.3 (except for gestalt war exhaustion, which I couldn't find in the changelog, but diff for vanilla-vs-mod file is there).

Hi, are you sure you're not meaning 2.0.3? I haven't had a chance to update to that of yet.

Current version reverts following 2.0.2 patch effects:

- Egalitarian ethics effect on faction influence increased from +15%/30% to +25%/50%.
- Militarist ethics now gain -10%/-20% war exhaustion gain instead of army damage bonus.
- Gestalt Consciousnesses now get less piracy risk.
- "country_war_exhaustion_mult = -0.2" for gestalts.

Guess just wasn't updated for 2.0.2 changes.

These are probably intended, but don't seem to be mentioned in the description:

- Allows impoverished living standards in mild-egalitarian dystopias.
- Modifies migration attraction, so that slaves don't migrate to authoritarians (4x penalty) and very much like egalitarians (4x bonus).
- Some kind of hivemind purge tweak?

Largely, yes. The changes I made do not overlap with the changes AlphaAsh made.

I can't guarantee that with all his plugins, but as I write this I haven't found any issues with the full load I'm using.

Is this compatible with Alphamod?

As said, internal reactions are untouched.

i suppose purging cause negative opinions ?

Launcher's being a bit funny, so the next update's going to take a bit to get uploaded. Making it so that moderate spiritualist empires can pick up AI rights if desired.

Confirmed that it's compatible with the 2.0.1 and 2.0.2b builds.

Thank you, I may now proceed with having a quirky species of space meddlers.

Reuploaded with fix for authoritarian purges. Now fanatics are the ones who can purge, not moderates.

Incredible! You are the man! Thank you!!!

Updated.

No worries. I'll have to look at the changes after updating.

Okay, awesome. Im actually gonna wait for you to update it before i play the game, since your mod is essential! ;D

Has not been updated to 2.0 yet, will do when I have time.

Does it work with 2.0?

Could this be updated to 1.9?

I'll take a look in a bit.

Is it possible to have fanatic authoritarian being able to purge pops of the founder species?

Most welcome! Thanks for the feedback!

I love this mod. Thanks yooooouuuuu! :3

No worries, thanks for the heads-up.

Just checked, it's not achivement compatible, please change the title.
Thanks for the mod :).
