Amazing mod, thank you!
Any way to make it possible to build megastructures on top of inhabited planets?

@{EXP} Sky Gaming ust to make sure everything stil works in 3.14 here is the legacy version https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3511057899

@CMaia which mod are u talking about? The workshop has a lot of mods with "NSC". In general it should not affect any new megastructures from other mods (they should be fine not matter the mod order). But if the other mod changes any old megastructure one file will overwrite the other. So if for example ur mod changes the look/graphic of a ringworld both mods dont work together and forces u to choose which mods ability u want by modorder.

Can you please add support to NSC megastructures? I can't build them if I already build one. I tried to build the grand shipyard around a star with another mega already built in and couldn't. I placed this mod below any mod that add any mega for compatibility sake.

@{EXP} Sky Gaming the mod has been updated to 4.0. Parts of the mod might still work with 3.14, but ringworlds might have issues.

does this mod still work in the 3.14 Beta ?

@veilletteross this tooltip behavior is hardcoded. I cannot change it, as its not moddable.

@Nikola M fully removing the limit would cause the AI to spam them and ruining itself in the process. To circumvent thatI used the Architectural Renaissance ambition. Only the player can take this edict type and it now grants +20 to the kilostructure limit. That should be enough for a player to build them at hearts content after activating the edict. I am not even sure if this is a real limit, or if - after reaching the limit it would be possible to gain another +20 from disabling and reenabling the edict.

Would it be possible for you to look into making the Arc Furnace tooltip stay permanently active? once you have built the normal limit, the amount of deposits you would get disappears from the system tooltip.

could you please also create a version where there is no kilostructure limit (arc furnace/dyson swarm)

@Kaifer I see, that real space 4.0 also updates the files for the ringworlds, dyson sphere, matter decompressor, quantum catapult and dyson swarm. So real space overwrites my mod if loaded in the wrong order and prevents the rule changes I made for these 5 megastructures.

@Kaifer did u activate the architectural renaissance ambition? As thats the one which increases the amount of megastructures u can upgrade at the same time.

Sadly this isn't working for my game. I am only running this, Real Space 4.0, and an Advisor Voice Mod. I can't build multiple ring segments at the same time. Not sure if there is a conflict, but definitely doesn't seem to be working as intended.

@drachenklinge4 Thank you for the clarification... this is what I have been look for. Great Mod!

I can imagine some edge case where the AI builds the first stage of a megestructure (like spy orb) and then another first stage of the spy orb at another location. As the AI gets only locked out of buildng more of the same kind once it fully finished a megastructure of this kind. But usually the AI does fully finish a megastrucure first, before starting a new one. Even if this edge case happens, and stuff like 2 spy orbs get build, once one of them is completed there cannot be a third one.

@Kullgen the AI is mostly limited to default settings outside of the galactic wonders ascension perk megastructures and general megastructure placement. Meaning it should only want to build one megashipyard, qantumcatapult, think thank, spy orb, mbega art installation, interstellar assembly and strategic coordination center (not counting in repaired megastructures). It can place them at the same locations the player can. Matter compressors it can theoretically build as many as it wants - but the ai very rarely takes this ascension perk. The amount of dyson spheres the Ai can upgrade is limited by the base amount of dyson swarms. As the AI cannot take the architectural renaissance edict.

Just for clarification, the AI is limited to the default settings?

The man said that it could not be done and then he did anyways. Hats off to you good sir.

Update: The Ai now should only desire to build one of each megastructure (exept if it repairs one). The AI still can construct multiple dyson spheres and matter compressors in the rare cases it unlocks them from ascension perk.

Improved the architectural Renaissance ambiton and forbade the AI from taking it. This ambition now should provide the player with additional dyson swarm and arc furnace capacity. This way only the player can basicylls build them as much as they want while the AI has to obey the old limit.

I will experiment a bit with country flags and see if I can limit the AI this way. No promises though.

Is it possible to spawn a leader that can build a megastructure for you like an event or a script which spawns it rather than "naturally" building it? For the same fee of course.

Sadly a player only version is not achievable, as then I would have to ban the AI from building megastructures completely. Or fully redevelop 2 separate sets of the same megastructure.

I also wonder if it be possible to make a player only version, the AI seems to abuse this and completely break the game where as I only want three matter decompressors instead of just one. And like three dyson spheres instead of just one.

The mod has been updated to 4.0

hey if it is possible can you make a version where (preferably) only the player has no restrictions on specifically the arc furnace and dyson swarms
i really want to stress that it should only affect the player
i understand if its not possible

@drachenklinge4 thank you for such a quick reply. That makes sense, I think the picture of all the dyson spheres around the trinary stars made me think I'd be able to make more swarms since swarms are the pre-req for spheres now.

Great mod regardless!

@Iideo dame I havent increased the total limit of dyson swarms or arc furnaces allowed to be constructed out of fear the AI would spam the whole map and ruin itself in the process. Therefore (after researching megastructure tech) anyone still can only construct up to 4 of each. And only more by conquering them and disbanding the conquered ones to rebuilt them somewhere else.

Seems to be working only partially for me. I'm still being limited on how many Dyson Swarms I can build. I made sure to test using only this mod, and still same issue.

Also ringworlds will now delete every non-habitable planet in the system. Leaving ur colonies intact, but removing most of the stuff, that would otherwise intersect with ur ring.

Update: Fixed the issue where it was possible to build ringworlds on top of ringworlds together with some other cases where it was possible to construct multiple megastructure on top of the same star. It is still possible to have a ringworld together with any other megastructure at the same star. The only remaining case where a ringworld can stack on top of another ringworld is in binary/trinary systems. As constructing a ringworld on one of the side stars will always place the ring over the center star. So in binary max two ringworlds can be on top of each other and in trinary max three ringworlds.

@TwistedShadows this is a great idea! I updated the mod so that it is now possible to build multiple arc furnaces in a single system as long as there are multiple molten worlds. They cannot be built on top of each other, but boost each others resources.
Binary and trinary systems indeed can have a dyson swarm for each star, they can even ahve one dyson sphere for each star.

does this mod allow multiple arc furnaces in the same system if the artificial "one megestructure per system" limit wasnt in place? as in if you have a system with multiple molten worlds, can you build an arc furnace on each one? Dont want to be able to build an arc furnace on an arc furnace. Just two arc furnaces in the same system if the system could theoretically already support multiple if that limiter wasnt there? and do binary and trinary star systems allow each star to have a swarm?

You madlads. You glorious, glorious madlads.

The mod is now updated to 3.14. The grand archive can now be built without 25 pops being needed on a colony.

@drachenklinge4 I figured out the issue. For some reason it is conflicting with the Otter editor on my game. I disabled the Otter Editor and the mod works fine.

@Cycomps the mod is still working. Do you have another mod active, which modfies the megastructure files? You might have a compatability issue.

I guess the last update to the game killed this mod. It is not removing limits on anything.

very good mod, LOL.

@Daimonia7 The typo error causing the broken instant megastructure is now fixed.
@MrGeneral was fearing the ability to build infinite dyson swarms would cause issues. Reverted this so its once again only possible to build dyson swarms like arc furnaces to the fix limit. Dyson swarm on top of a dyson swarm should also not be possible anymore.
As for the ringworlds, the asteroid fields now once again get destroyed. I cannot do the same for the planets due to some possible crash case when someone constructs a ringworld on top of a ringworld.

Other issues include the AI destroying their economy cause the can build infinite dyson swarms on a single star, the ai destroying the game's frames cause they keep building the free and instant megastructures that were created by the typo, and if you count this as a bug ring worlds after being created do not destroy the planets and asteroid fields in a solar system resulting in horrible clipping issues that can cause lag as well when observing the system

@Daimonia7 It's a from a typo in the code of this mod that has yet to be fixed

it seems that this mod add a megastructure called "potential" and "ressource" don"t know if it is intended but it cost nothing and ai empires don't stop spamming them on a same star everywhere, polluting a lot the screen. (also making the game more laggy)

Updated the mod, so that arc furnace and dyson swarms now can be dismantled.

Awesome ^-^

@MrGeneral

Im sorry, i didnt got the clue about that.
But somehow i dont get that error anymore, so thats good ^^

@DarkDavy I personally don't know what you did and my two comments were ment for the mod author so they could fix it easier since it the code I provided is the areas in the dyson sphere and dyson swarm where it breaks the mega structures list or allows the ai to spam a megastructure that kills their economy

this mod seems to add a megastructure called "potential resources" in every ai controlled system even marauders and fallen empires

When is there going to be an update that fixes the blank megastuctures becuase the AI just spams them. I've been using the console command to remove them but it is getting annoying.

Gonna uninstall and find another one until an update gets posted. Not gone, just waiting. If I was only making a mod list for myself and not a group of people, I'd just insert the code myself and run the game business as usual.

Can someone dm me and lmk when an update is posted?
Disc: @jackchayn

Ahh, so it wasn't just me then. Thought it might be a compatibility issue.
