I got a few Ship name ideas:
Falcon
Mellenium (I hope you see what i done here)
Iz'lek
Hyperion
Equestrian (as in horses)
Exposure
If all of these don't meet your standards, use this website http://fantasynamegenerators.com/space-colony-names.php#.V7Sm-vkrKUk

How about an advertisement for a gentleman's club that features only xenos?

That sounds like a good idea for a civilian space station sign. Thank you!

Thank you! Will take a look.
I'd really like to see Billboards that unlock as you research technology, and that depend on your policies/state/type of the empire.

for example, if you're fanatic militarist, I'd expect to see boards saying "join the grand fleet now" "Service means citizenship"or something like that.

or boards enforcing the primaty ethos of your empire, for example, if you're collectivist with slavery allowed, something like "don't be the weak link" or "accept your fate, one for all and all for one"

or ads for new te4chnologies, like you have the psionics, for example genetic manipulation, new FTL drives, etc.

Billboards that are based on techs/ethics/policies are definitely possible with the current system, just not a high priority since creating the actual adverts will take a while.

I have an idea for a billboard but I'm no artist though.

An advertisment for Space Cow (Tiyanki) Milk! :D

I got a good idea for a billboard. Probably one to join a extremly nationalist party in your empire, probably like "Patriot's club, No xeno's need apply!"
Ankain  [developer] 26 Oct, 2016 @ 11:19pm 
I really like the idea of Space Cow Milk. Thank you!

@Ryadnovoy There's a similar adv that's already in game, but I like your idea too for variation. Thank you!

Thanks, I done a good amount of research on stuff like immigrants entering the U.S facing discrimination. I.E when there is a job application in a newspaper or on a billboard of some sort, it would usually say "No Irish need apply!"

One suggestion for the future maybe. The ship ads sometimes feel a bit weird when your a species that would design a completely different ship and wouldn't allow a xeno space company, E.G Millitant Xenophobic Mushroom people. Could you perhaps make an option to base the ads of the ships you have designed, using the image from the ship designer. Possibly players could be able to design some civ ships themselves if you they want to go all out. Plus, that way you would be able to see some smug civies flying around in their brand new ships.

Love the mod by the way, especially for ruthless capitalists

ED: I don't mean do diss anyone's hard work in designing those ads by the way, they are awesome and incredibly well done. If I was one of my pops, you'd have sold me one.

Yeah I completely agree with you there, the main reason why the ads seem out of place is there aren't enough ads right now to split them up based on ethics/culture/species etc.

I think something along the lines of it showing your other planets/allies planets and advertise going to said planet would be cool. If you have free migration that is.
