so in the borg_01_unique_ships.asset file i found the line.....
@borg_cube_scale = 50.0
i adjusted it to @borg_cube_scale = 100.0, and there was no visible change in the size of the cube... am i missing something?

Speaking of the mod...
Were Aenar and Novans fixed to be subspecies of Andorians and humans? Did the Kelpian Duchies get their info back in? What about the fact that races like Romulans and such are missing their race specific backgrounds, at least when not playing as them? (I haven't checked yet to find out also if the Orions in my current game are still using their old generic ship type they had or the custom one that was made for them. It pops up in the civ select screen but last time I looked they had the Betazoid ships in my playthrough)
Nice! These are one of my favourite looks for one episode aliens from Voyager, I love the feathers. I feel like the first couple of seasons of Voyager were a lot more creative with doing weird stuff with alien hair than Trek usually is.
If the late game jump drive stays in I suppose that would be a better stand-in for warp-drive then just tweaking the stupid hyperlanes around.
As for the base game I always found Hyper Drive to be the least interesting of the drive options, as for forcing players to interact with static defences that doesn't really fit Star Trek, in the shows the borders are bypassed fairly frequently, unless you set up those tachyon detection grids along the neutral zone. Even then by themselves they only alert the Federation to incursions and border violations, they do nothing to physically stop them and Romulans or Klingons determined to invade will not necessarily be stopped by them.
They're not and will not ever be a physical border wall. Those are mostly folly anyway and about as porous as Swiss Cheese in reality. The only then mega expensive border walls are really good for, whether on this planet or their sci-fi equivalents would be to reassure the population and make it look like politicians are doing something about their security.
Sensors and detection techs on the other hand are really useful and they're arguably more useful with Warp Drive, as you can see where your enemy is headed rather than with Hyperlanes where every possible fleet movement is predictable and predetermined anyway.
So hope the NH team can find a way to bypass and work around this mess.

Yes, Yes, and Whaaaaaaaaaaaa? I haven't seen that one.
Edit: Oh yeah, I see that race planet portrait problem there now... I wonder why that's happening
Editedit: Fixed now for the race room portraits

Will double check the Orion ship thing when I get a chance as well. It made so little sense to see them using Betazoid ships when in the nation select it still shows their race specific ship type.

Will these fixes show up on steam as updates to the mod files? it says the last update was in October so I'm just checking for curiosity's sake...
Yes, they're in line for next patch, so whenever that goes out (no idea when) it will be auto updated on steam.

Josun - yes, the next Stellaris update is a long, long way away, certainly not 2017.
That being said, the next STNH update will drop a lot sooner. Which will include fixes to the Aenar and Novan sub-species as well, and many other additions and fixes too.

the malon would make an interesting new horizons race...

with their vessels in orbit of enemy worlds you could poison their planets and kill the population.

This actually reminds me, something I'd like clarification on...
I've seen two cases (I think it might have been the Borg only, but I can't recall) where you start out with different bombardment policy options. Biological weapons and Thalaron weapons being listed as your bombardment policies.
Do those actually do anything? And are they actually meant to be there? Because when i click it their not listed as possible choices to choose from.
Biological weapons and Thalaron weapons are unlocked by unique techs. Yes, they do something - more damage to fortifications, buildings and pops.
A quick question: I just had the option to research the Tamarian language pop up but I didn’t have enough influence to research it. Will it pop up again?
