updated to 4.00.21 - but please note the description

I understand of course. and as I said, probably still using the mod to make custom races, etc. thanks for the explanation / reply. have a nice day!

@Tropigo
I see your point and I'm sorry the recent changes are not to your like. tbh it's just an question of design, and I personally want to keep it more or like like it is now. Hope you still like it and will use it in future :)

Many thanks for your feedback, I very appreciate it!

@Tropigo
Sadly not, since I not keep old files. tbh, it maybe would have been nice in this case, but I did not have thought about it.
I totally see your point. The trait was initially planned for RP and not directly as influental. The old version boni were for myself suboptimal, since 1) to have sex =/= procreate. An species already in space will have contraception, which means an nymphomaniac will not automatical increase birth rate (which was the point before the last update). 2) if an xenos species have a lot of sex, it should not automatical be seen as digusting. We don't think rabbits are disgusting, even if they breed very quickly. So the relation malus was not very logical. Thats why I removed it. Maybe it would be seen as good for spiritualists, but this is just human-centric-view; there could be also an alien sex religion, so I decided to remove the malus for everyone.

@kaiser
Sorry mate, I was sure I've already wrote an reply to you. But seems I have forgotten.
Sadly I can not, since I didn't keep old versions. Only way to get it if anyone have the old version of this mod on his local drive... but saldy I can't help you with that :(

in my opinion the old version's traits were "better" they had good and then bad sides but now they are quite weak traits. the lustful trait has especially taken a hit, before it increased the population...but as a negative it made everyone think your species are disgusting deviants. now it has pretty much no effect on the game. I will continue to keep this mod among the mods I use, but whether I will use these traits as often again is another question. otherwise quite fun and nice mod. Have a nice day !

could you post a separate version where the trait effects are what they were originally?

hello this is a mod ive been using for a while now on an older version of the game can you link the file for the last version before you reworked it?

updated/reworked.

The trait effects are now more complex.

Optimized for "Galactic Paragons".

Dont mind, I've managed to do it compatible as in the past. Dont worry, will stay stand alone :D

Heyya guys.

I'm currently completly rework this mod. Sadly, it's compatability will be much worse then now... To achieve what I want to do, I had to modify various vanilla files like jobs and so on.

Since "Decadence Unlimited" will be no longer compatible without any restrictions, I will integrate this mod into "V-Mods Species" (to ensure compatibility between my own projects and reduce effort for updates) and delete the stand-alone (to keep my portfolio as clean as possible).

If anyone want the current (stand alone) version of this mod, add me on Steam an send me a message via chat. I will send you the files.

Thank you for your understanding.

Agree. To be honest, the "immoral sex" malus is more or less just an "emergency solution". Decadent sexuallity should be a negative trait, but I have not found any malus I which seemed logical. So I just added what I thought of first.
Would be to much work for such an unimportant malus to let it appear only with specific species... Guess we have to life with this until I find a better option.

Bugs shouldnt consider humanoid sex immoral...

Hi!
this mod do not need an update and works totally fine :)

Please, is it possible to update in the new version 3.2

removed version number. should be compatible with all versions from now on!

updated to 3.1.1

updated to 3.0.3

misclicked :( wanted to delet my own comment due an misspelling and sadly deleted your comment instead of mine. Feels sad; would be cool if you can repost your comment :)

great, sounds like a cool species, hope you enjoy :)

oh no, damn, deleted your comment O_O was not by intention... T.T

Please comment if you run in any bugs - I have tested it quickly, but you never know ;)
Was a long time I didn't worked with Stellaris ;)

Updated to current version! Had to redo some modifiers, check my website for detailed changelog!

I do not sell anything; so not commercial ;)

Why is your website a Organization site and not a commercial site?

Hi there and thanks!
Sadly, this mod is currently paused (as all of my Stellaris projects).
I will update my mods someday for sure, but be prepared to wait long time up to that.

Love the idea for the mod, is it still being updated?

that's cool. it happens. i give myself two more months before that happens to me. either way, take it easy.

hi there!
yes, thats really a issue I aware of... but since I'm finished with Stellaris for the moment, I will not invest further work for now.
Thanks for your feedback, I hope you like the traits. As soon I'm back at Stellaris, I will realize your suggestion and ad firther info to the linked page :)

I like this mod, but it needs better documentation to become popular (if you care about that) - the site you link too doesn't even have all of the actual traits and modifiers listed, so people have to download the mod to see it. Now, I can note they do work (thanks for the update!) and are cool, but they should be available in the description somewhere.

its cool, just wondering. life happens.

nope, but I've sadly lot of other priorities currently.
I will update the mod soon.

@flupo42: sorry, totally forgot about your post :S There are 4 traits, the vanilla one (slavery), a drug use one (more happiness, less age), a lust one (+grow speed, but non-lustful empires will look you as inmoral) and finally a beauty one (+consumer need).
so create a slaanesh-species, you may take lust, drugs and beauty one. :)

is this mod retired?

heyya, sure, will post it tomorrow (12:00 CET). atm not so much time for a extensive answer ;)

It really bugged me that decadence was represented in only one dimension - how is one supposed to create an empire capable of birthing Slaanesh with that?

Could you please post a description of what those new traits actually do/ conditions to satisfy?

I'll need to double check.

should be arleady like that ;)

Small suggestion: Perhaps races that both have the lust one don't have the opinion debuff.

Thanks :)

Great mod.

I see, that does make sense.

That's true but as I'm a fan of consistency and none of the other traits have any preceding description, I'm somewhat bugged with it. That's just personal taste, though.

Well, I'm not a fan of drug consumption either, but I wouldn't force my own view on its description ;) but don't worry, just wanted to mention it.

You're right that a species which uses drugs as a social norm will call it "use" and not "abuse" - but it's neverthless abuse (-> if they consume it daily just because of fun, it's clearly abuse). Since I personally not a big fan of drug consume, I will not use the euphemistic "use" insetad of "abuse" ;)
About the description, I think i will change it, seems to be a "bug" since english isn't my main language. But idk how much time I have beside my RL job and the current running MP, and since it isn't game breaking, I can't promise that it will be "fixed" during the next days.

The duplicated "decadent: slavery" is for two purposes: a) better compatibility (since this mod don't edit any of the vanilla traits) and b) the vanilla "decandent: slavery" is restricted to xenophobe/autocratic empires only, the modded, duplicated one can picked without any restriction. The AI will only pick the vanilla one, so the duplicated is only for the player (if he wants to RP with a e.g. decadent xenophile empire).

The preceding "decadent:" I personally like since all traits should represent different forms of decadence.

This mod not only adds "decadence: slavery", it also modifies the vanilla decadent trait to the same name, so now there are two. I'd suggest adding only 3 traits without the preceding "decadent:" while keeping the original named as it is.

lust: lecherous, prurient, lustful

beauty: superficial, beauty/appearance obsessed
I'd also give this one additional effects, like a slightly positive opinion about us or ruler opinion impact, maybe counterbalanced by a negative opinion towards races without the trait.

drug abuse: substance user, chemical consumer
In accordance to the "substance abuser" leader trait and the "chemical bliss" living standard. Also there's a difference between drug use and abuse. If the drug use has become the social norm, I doubt the species would call it abuse, so I'd describe it as use or consumption. I'd also change the description to "Members of this species consume drugs so excessively ..." rather than "Members of this species consume so excessively drugs ...".

I checked it out right now. I don't really see whats the problem.
With Hivemind, you can't pick the vanilla 'Decadence' trait, but all new ones coming with this mod.
With Serviles (syncretic species) you should be aible to pick all 'Decadence' traits.
The 'V-Mods species' Mod is not necessary for this mod - 'Decadence Unlimited' runs stand alone. Neverthless they are both fully compatible to each other.

Maybe you can make a screenshot of the species setup/"error"message?

will check the files, but as far I know, either this or any other of my mods touches the any vanilla traits (also servile/hivemind). Will look into a solution asap

its worth mentioning it might also be the V-mods. i kept that on too just incase thiso ne needed it to run. . . i wasn't sure while i was messing around with the mods

love the mod but for some reason its causes my game to reject the servile and Hive mind Perks. If i create a species with them it says i need them to continues yet they are reded out and its says i can't use them. seems to have only started since last update and this freaking amazing trait mod seems to be the cause. Breaks my heart. . . i love this mod

THIS IS A GOOD PAIN

Nice, thank you

yep, for sure :) I just wait on the full release since idk if there are any changes from the 1.8.1 beta to 1.8.1 (1.8.2) full. I don't have the time to update each of my mod for every beta patch.
