Question: Ring World around Dyson Sphere

I modded the megastructure files to allow me to build a Ring World and then after the ring world was done to build a Dyson Sphere in the middle. It worked but the sun still displays instead of the Dyson. Anyone had this happen to them? I see some mods on the workshop and they did nothing special with the graphics so I don't know why it does not display correctly. To be clear I have the ringworld with the sun in the middle and if I click on the star it shows the dyson sphere information box. The only issue is that the Dyson is not replacing the sun on the system display.

Edit: Works fine with a single star. Problem was with a binary but the other mods seem to say it works with a binary???? At this point I added code to the ring world on build complete to change the star to a single star from binary so that when the dyson is built it is a single star.

Hello all,

I am trying to set up some broadside weapons, that should fire only in a certain angle. For this I defines some cannon in folder component_templates - file myMod_weapons_projectiles.txt (I basically copied the mass_driver-entry for testing)

weapon_component_template = {
    type = instant
    
    key = "SMALL_MACRO_CANNON_1"
    size = broadSideSmall
    
    icon = "GFX_ship_part_mass_driver_1"
    icon_frame = 1
    
    firing_arc = 10.0
    
    power = -5.00
    damage = { min = 5.00 max = 16.00 }
    hull_damage    = 1.00
    shield_damage = 1.50
    shield_penetration = 0.00
    armor_damage = 0.50
    armor_penetration = 0.00
    windup = { min = 1.00 max = 18.00 }
    total_fire_time = 25.00
    range = 50.00
    accuracy = 0.75
    tracking = 0.5
    
    prerequisites = { "tech_mass_drivers_1" }
    component_set = "MACRO_CANNON_1"
    projectile_gfx = "mass_driver_s"
    tags = { weapon_type_kinetic }
    ai_tags = { weapon_role_anti_shield }
    #upgrades_to = "SMALL_MACRO_CANNON_2"
    resources = {
        category = ship_components
        cost = {
            alloys = @s_t1_cost
        }       
        upkeep = {
            energy = @s_t1_upkeep_energy
            alloys = @s_t1_upkeep_alloys
        }
    }
}

I defined the size as broadSideSmall. I then defined a turret for this size in folder component_slot_templates, file myMod_component_slots_turrets.txt setting the size of the turret to the size defined previously

broadside_macro_cannon_small = {
    size = broadSideSmall
    component = weapon
    entities = {
    #    weapon_type_explosive = "turret_BS_macro_canon_small_entity"
        weapon_type_kinetic =   "turret_BS_macro_cannon_small_entity"
    #    weapon_type_energy =    "turret_BS_macro_canon_small_entity"
    }
}

Then I added a ship section in folder section_templates referencing the turret:

    component_slot = {
        name = "SMALL_GUN_01"
        template = "broadside_macro_cannon_small"
        locatorname = "small_gun_01"
    }

Now I would have expected, that in the ship designer, I would only see my new broadside-weapons to be selectable. But this is not the case, I still can select all other small-size weapons if I click on the componen of the ship:

Why does the selection not restrict the weapons to the broadside-type but somehow guesses, that it should be all small weapons? How could I exclude these other weapon-components/sizes?

Having difficulty with a feature of GetName. I have a fairly simple event that is blasted to all other players by another player (Let's call him A) to let the other players know that Player A has done something. In the localization I simple say,

smhm.4.desc_01: "[smhm_handicap_country.GetName] has been given §G$weak_handicap$."

However I have discovered that if Player B has not met Player A Stellaris does some kind of post processing and instead of posting the country name it posts "Unknown" (or something like that).

Is there a way to get around this?

Mitchz95's solution below resolved this.

Use "GetRealName" instead.

Two questions about game notifications:

1) The game speaks that our space station is under attack when actually I am attacking someone else's space station

2) The game speaks that we have lost a space station when actually I as the attacker have conquered a enemy space station

How can I mod these things so they are only talking about my stations and not the enemy stations? Its like some scope is wrong somewhere.

Is there a function to check a planet's trade value? Is there a way to make a planet collect its systems trade value?

Can I give a planet the orbit_modifier = { ship_orbit_upkeep_mult = -0.25 } crew quarters starbase modifier? What about can_orbitable_repair_ships?

common static modifiers

1) in the difficulty section what is a npc? I understand it means non playable country - but what does that include? I thought it might be space creatures plus fallen empires but I am no longer sure fallen empires are included.

2) If I add things like:

ship_weapon_damage = 3
ship_hull_mult = 3
ship_armor_mult = 3
ship_shield_mult = 3

to the difficulty_grand_admiral section they do not seem to have any impact on the ai fleets military power. Is there some reason theses only apply on the start of a new game and changing them during a current game has no impact despite saving and reloading?

Hello!

I was wondering if anyone knew where in the save game the pop growth definers are?
I have a savegame from 3.0 and I want to get rid of the annoying pop growth limitations. They should be inside save game since Paradox gave us these pop growth sliders, but for the life of me, I cannot find them. Help?

League of Non Aligned

Is there a way to stop certain personality types from joining the league? In diplomatic actions I tried to set them not to join a federation but they join the league anyway.

Edit: I don't know how to stop them from joining but I found a way to kick them out if they do join. Not sure if I got the opinion stuff correct or not.

Colossus Neutron Beam

Is there a way to mod it so that it only destroys armies and changes ownership?

Edit: I think I can change the Neutron Beam to do what I want by editing planet_destruction_events.txt id = planet_destruction.300

replace:
destroy_colony = yes add_modifier = { modifier = neutron_bombarded days = 3600 }
with:
if = { limit = { from.owner = { has_ascension_perk = ap_become_the_crisis }} destroy_colony = yes add_modifier = { modifier = neutron_bombarded days = 3600 } } if = { limit = { from.owner = { NOT = { has_ascension_perk = ap_become_the_crisis} OR = { is_ai = no has_ai_personality = decadent_hierarchy has_ai_personality = democratic_crusaders has_ai_personality = erudite_explorers has_ai_personality = evangelising_zealots has_ai_personality = fanatic_befrienders has_ai_personality = federation_builders has_ai_personality = harmonious_hierarchy has_ai_personality = honorbound_warriors has_ai_personality = migrating_flock has_ai_personality = peaceful_traders has_ai_personality = ruthless_capitalists has_ai_personality = spiritual_seekers has_ai_personality = slaving_despots has_ai_personality = hegemonic_imperialists } } } every_planet_army = { remove_army = yes } set_owner = from.owner } if = { limit = { from.owner = { NOT = { has_ascension_perk = ap_become_the_crisis} OR = { has_ai_personality = hive_mind has_ai_personality = machine_intelligence has_ai_personality = xenophobic_isolationists has_ai_personality = assimilators has_ai_personality = exterminators has_ai_personality = fanatic_purifiers has_ai_personality = servitors has_ai_personality = metalhead # is_country_type = fallen_empire is_country_type = awakened_fallen_empire has_ai_personality = fallen_empire_hivemind has_ai_personality = fallen_empire_militarist has_ai_personality = fallen_empire_xenophobe has_ai_personality = fallen_empire_xenophile has_ai_personality = fallen_empire_materialist has_ai_personality = fallen_empire_spiritualist has_ai_personality = fallen_empire_machine has_ai_personality = berserk_fallen_empire_machine has_ai_personality = awakened_fallen_empire_hivemind has_ai_personality = awakened_fallen_empire_machine has_ai_personality = awakened_fallen_empire_materialist has_ai_personality = awakened_fallen_empire_militarist has_ai_personality = awakened_fallen_empire_spiritualist has_ai_personality = awakened_fallen_empire_xenophile has_ai_personality = awakened_fallen_empire_xenophobe # is_country_type = swarm has_ai_personality = devouring_swarm } } } destroy_colony = yes add_modifier = { modifier = neutron_bombarded days = 3600 } }

Tested as ai = no and it works to change owner and keep the pops and buildings !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your effects ("give_technology", "set_country_flag", etc) should be on the same line as "limit".

every_country = {
    limit = { <conditions> }
    <effects>
}

Thank you for the response. I understand what you are saying but I think I am already doing that??????

Whoops, you're right, my mistake. Not sure what's wrong in that case.

Do you think with every country I need to do event targets to set the flags? Or something due to on_game_start? Some kind of game bug........

Is there an effect or some way to set the name of a planet to a random one from the owners/a scope's namelist?

So, purging question: I'm trying to use planet/country modifiers to adjust purging speed and the output of purging jobs locally. I've managed to steal the pop_purge_speed modifier from the menace perks, but no matter what variant of planet_jobs_purge_produces_mult or planet_purge_produces_mult I use, I can't add a local bonus/penalty to the output of purging jobs. I'd rather not edit the actual vanilla jobs file, but is that the *only* way to adjust purge output? The entry on the wiki *seems* to imply that any vanilla job can be used for a planet_jobs_x_produces effect, I just can't get it to work for the purging job specifically.

Shouldn't need to. Are the other effects (set_global_flag, give_technology, etc) working? If not, the event might not be triggering properly.

"set_name = random". If it's unowned, "set_owner = <country>" first.

Thanks for the response. I asked on discord and they thought maybe a global event would work. I have since changed my follow up events to not look for a country flag.

Thanks, that works, except when I said 'owner' I meant the owner of the system, as I want to use this on uncolonisable planets. I can set the owner of the system to be the owner of the planet, which makes it work but that creates a pseudo-colony and I can't figure out how to get rid of it. destroy_colony = yes doesn't work (However it does if I use the 'own' console command). Is there a way to set the owner to nobody?
