Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
Hello,

In my most recent game, despite me taking both psionic ascension perks, I am unable to get precognitive interface or psi jump drives. I have maxed out my society tree and have completed many repeatable techs. I did manage to get psi shields through the shroud.

I was wondering if it could have to do with this line in the society text file, which is found in both of the aforementioned techs.
"
modifier = {
factor = 0
host_has_dlc = "Utopia"
"

As far as I can tell, this tech can't be drawn if the host is running the utopia dlc?

Steps to reproduce the issue.
Take the two psionic ascension perks. Try to research psi jum drive and precognitive interface

Could be misremembering entirely but I believe those techs are only available through Shroud interactions unless you don't have Utopia (which adds ascension perks and therefore the Shroud).

You're right. They are shroud events. I didn't know that because it wasn't listed as such on the society tech page on the wiki.

Yeah. You can find it listed on the Shroud wiki page but there's no mention on the technologies page. Really should be.

Hello!

Thank you for the report!
This is working as designed.

Like others have already pointed out Psionic Jump Drive and Precognitive Interface are only available from shroud events.
