Tried playing a game in multiplayer with a friend and the game was running very slow, it took about 2-3x as long for an in-game day to pass and was constantly stuttering. I was hosting using a standard species while the other player had a hive species. It also seemed to occur in singleplayer, this was the only mod active.

The Lucent Brood civic says it requires the Pacifist Ethic, but whenever I select said Ethic the civic becomes unavailable alongside the Sword Logic civic. This has happened while using ethic and civic overhaul mods, and I believe while playing with just your other destiny mods. It isn't much of a problem, but thought I should leave this here. Keep up the amazing work and have a splendid day!

I wanted to inform you of a bug in which i am unable to build Hive Worm Spawning Pools as the building icon is grayed out. I went into the files which involved the building and through testing I found that by removing the line under "allow" entitled "buildings_planet_simple = yes" seemed to fix the issue. From my current play through i haven't come across any more issues and it seems to be working as intended. As a side not I absolutely love all your content and I hope you continue to add more wonderful items to the workshop. Thought I should let you know :))

Hi, I've been having a problem where every time I'm doing a run with both the Hive and the Lucent Brood, the leader portrait for my ruler changes from what I selected when creating the empire to a random leader portrait. (e.g. Savathun changing to an Ogre), I was wondering if there's a fix for this or not.

Thank you in advance and hope you're having a good day.

Yeah, I just noticed that recently on my end. I'm looking into it, but I'm not sure why the portrait set is randomly changing leader portraits.

I'll update this mod when I find the solution. Thanks for letting me know.

When using your mods, empires in the game don’t declare war on each other... at all. I have a large mod pack, and when I first noticed this, I didn’t think it could be caused by your mods, but after a dozen tests, I’m convinced that’s where the issue lies. I ran the game without any mods, conducted several accelerated games for 40-50 years, then did the same thing with only your mods enabled(In combinations, and one at a time), and I can definitely say the problem is in them.

Additional information: I used only 4 mods and their combinations – 'Destiny: Hive Portraits,' 'Destiny: Vex Portraits', 'Destiny: The Darkness', and 'Animated Scrin Portraits'. Additionally, in each of my modded games, I created custom empires, slightly modifying the presets from your mods, and marked them to ensure they would appear in the game. Writing this in the comments to inform more people about the issue.

Alright, I'll check it out. Also, you don't have to post this everywhere. Just post it once in one of the bug reports for one of the mods and I'll see it in my notifications.

Thank you man, your mods are really awesome!
Also, don't know if this will help, but I forgot to say that I play with all DLC's except astral planes and I noticed the problem a few months ago, but then I didn't find the desire to figure it all out, and abandoned the game ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So it seems like it's not something that broke with the last update

I just made some adjustments to upkeep for each mod's respective army types and it fixed the problem. I don't know why, but using modded strategic resources like darkness resonance or hive worms as upkeep caused an issue with ai empires not declaring war when they should. Not sure if this will retroactively change for saved games, but it should be fixed now.
