Mods for 2.2.x

[BlackCappedChickadee]

Well 2.2 has been out for quite a while now, but it seems like there are hardly any mods that will work with it. Most of the "best" and "must have" mods my Google search turned up are very outdated.

So... what mods do ya'll us for 2.2?

2.2.x is still a thing that is getting updated every couple of weeks or so, so I'd guess there are quite a few mods that are going to be out of date most of the time. Glavius AI is pretty popular, and Glavius is very good about updating it.

NSC2
Deadly Tempest
Strike Craft Expanded
Improved Projectile Graphics
NSC2 Mass Effect shipset
Sins of the Prophet (NSC compatible)
Terraformed Sol system (Mars and Venus)

Google is not a good way of browsing for new mods. Check the 'recent' tab in the stellaris steam workshop. I have about 60 mods active.

Your mods look cool, I wonder if the AI could take advantage of them, or any conflicts with glavius AI? Cuz I don't see compat patch in your collection...

For the most part, yes the AI can use my mods. The exceptions would be Automatic Pop Migration because it would likely conflict with Glavius, and Empire University as I haven't found a way to subvert the AI from its normal leader picking tendencies. Otherwise they should all be AI friendly. The most obvious one is At War: Planetary Cannons and having to deal with my ships getting shot at while in orbit .

The thing that bothers me about Glavius AI is actually how frequently it updates. I'm glad it exists and is so popular since it incentivizes PDX to get their act together on their AI, but I dont actually use it because I dont like my game changing, and sometimes breaking, 5+ times per week. If that doesnt bother you though then its clearly a great mod.

Have you considered just using events to replace traits on existing AI leaders?

That is an interesting idea. I will have to see what I can do with that.

Understandable.
The complexity of AI and constant breaking, fixing and trying out makes many successive updates necessary though.
But 2.2 is still young and so is the newest adaption of Glavius's Ultimate AI.
I can guarantee you that later down the line updates will be less frequent and more comprehensive. As was the case in the later stages for 2.0/2.1+.

Yeah dont take me too seriously buddy, you and Glavius are doing God's work, or Blorg's work, or w/e suits your fancy.
