I have a somewhat weird question, if I were to make a vassal made up of my own species, do later choices I make about which ascension path apply to them? So if I split them off before getting mind over matter, can they later research flesh is weak? Or do my choices apply to the vassal as well?

Basically what I am trying to do is create an uber species. Like I go down psionic path, and they went down synthetic/bio path. I could then later reintegrate the vassal, and get psionic cyborgs (Or whatever).

I believe if you create a vassal it has all the ascension perks that you've already taken. It was like that in previous versions and it was a fun way to get vassals to build extra megastructures.

Back then you could dump a ton of minerals and energy on them and they'd eventually start building gateways, habitats, and maybe a science nexus. The AI seems to build fewer constructors in this version so I haven't seen them do this.
