[Dev Team] stellaris_test beta branch updated with many new fixes [checksum 8b3a]

"Oh there's crime, gotta remove it" seems like the sane response if faced against a criminal Megacorp.

Certainly, it's just not fun and makes them unplayable.

I gave my robots the "Harvester" trait, which increases food production; but the AI assigned all of my robots to be miners instead of farmers.

I signed up just to report this very old bug. The forced spawn mechanic does not work i have exactly 11 custom made empires (Well 12 in total) and all but one marked as Forced so i had the ai empire slider set to 11 and then even though that there all set to forced the game still spawns randomly generated empires, Thus defeating whole point of the Forced Spawn mechanic and it has become very annoying. I hope a dev sees this.

EDIT: I found out for some reason the game only allows up to nine custom empires to spawn at a time is there a way to change this?

WORKAROUND, even it is terrible
- Remove all pops from that WHOLE branch
- now lock all (should be already the ones , which had already full pops) ... just hit "-" on all lines (food, mines, clerks etc.)
- fill the food production with pops , normal the program uses the best pop, should be the robots

You have to do that every time, when the pop are wrong sorted

I've found a few issues with the AI in the beta patch, not sure if it's been brought up yet. They aren't building observation posts, and they seem to not be building trading hubs, offworld trading companies, or even possibly shipyards (I have yet to find a shipyard that's actually outside of the starting system). Also given their propensity to patrol trade routes above all else, I believe they aren't building station modules with a protection range increase. The planetary build strategies look better in the beta versus the main branch, at least they aren't immediately building themselves into an EC and mineral shortage by overbuilding alloy foundries anymore, however they still aren't clearing blockers unless they get isolated.

Not building shipyards is fixed by AI mod. Haven't checker other things, but AI mod does good job.

You do realize this is the beta branch thread and I am reporting issues still seen in the beta branch so that Paradox can fix them. Also, if people just drop in an AI mod without actually testing without the mod, why would anyone expect the developers to be able to fix the stock AI? Shouldn't we be reporting issues instead of just jumping over to modding? It's one thing if you don't consider the AI hard enough, it's another when it's broken on a fundamental level and needs to be fixed. Bug reports aid the developers in this case, as they can refine their searches for where the actual problem lies.

The robot slaves are still not liked by the Authority faction due to it wanting citizenship_ai_servitude to be true instead of citizenship_robot_servitude true, which is their citizenship type according to the citizenship rights file. Having tested if replacing the former with later, it fixes the issue, but could easily be meant the other way round.

"Oh there's crime, gotta remove it" seems like the sane response if faced against a criminal Megacorp.

The trouble is that it's both too oppressively effective (you build enough precincts and crime is just gone and there's not much counterplay to be had) and the AI, at least previously, was willing to run their economy in the ground to try to achieve that goal.

I don't understand, are there currently two betas?

I opted for stellaris_test and now my stellaris has checksum 555a, does it mean I am not getting the updates included in this version? (8b3a) or do I get both?

555a is the more recent beta.
For whatever reason they didn't lock and kill the old beta thread.

* Building and District tooltips are now more informative in regards to what resources they use and produce from their jobs

just upgraded to latest patch, and this is incredibly welcome. Thanks so much.

Greetings to all!

Perhaps this bug has already been described earlier, but it still exists and is very unpleasant.

Its meaning is that the AI can buy resources on the market without spending its own resources.
Thus, any AI player can build an unlimitedly large fleet, which makes planning very difficult and spoils the game.

This can be seen by switching over the console to a game for another empire.

If this bug is unknown, I please respected developers to pay attention to it.

Please report these bugs in the bug forums, with steps to reproduce as precise as you can make it, and if it applies a save file and logs.

I really enjoy this beta patch, the lag issue was very good when I decided to play a 2.2. game further ( around 2400 ), but now I have some days which lag about 5-10s, and then some days with "normal" small lag ( attached, around 2470 ), and vassal integration doesn't need Influence ( bug ? ). The increased lag days happend after I integrated a vassal with many differernt species ( I purge them all ... ). I have about 7,1k pops with about 6,2k of main

oh, I see, thx for the reply

 

[GuildenSpur]

Don't know if this has been mentioned. The Prethoryn don't take over planets and as such, when the wounded queen event fires, it has no effect.

found bug
tech_luxuries_1 = {
cost = @tier1cost3
area = engineering
tier = 1
category = { materials }
prerequisites = { "tech_basic_industry" }
weight = @tier1weight3

# Unlocks better consumer goods buildings

potential = {
OR = {
is_gestalt = no
has_valid_civic = civic_machine_servitor

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

#Global Manufacturing
tech_global_production_strategy = {
cost = @tier3cost1
area = society
tier = 3
category = { statecraft }
prerequisites = { "tech_alloys_1" "tech_luxuries_1" "tech_colonial_centralization" }

so only machine servitor can build this building (+15% alloys,consumer goods)
becouse only they from all gestalt (hive minds also) have acces to tech_luxuries_1 and that technology is required to get sweet +15% alloys

and why no love for machine empries?:<
habitats only have base grow of 1, 2 with building
pops cost energy instead of food ok but base food is 6 and base energy 4
give them some love please

 

[Mikhail_Mengsk]

Is there a way to access this patch, or only cheksum555a is available? I had no stuttering with this patch, while the last one stutters like hell.

 

[SwordOfTheStars]

Has anybody else had issues with vasselization through status quo? In addition, shouldn't an empire automatically concede all wargoals if all of their planets are occupied?

 

[KaRappa]

So many bugs left untouched though, wish this DLC/patch had a larger testing period, broke so much shit.
