xeno compatibilty and "gaia world" preference

[makaramus]

so... I found this

this fellas I found at a 17 tile gaia world(not best gaia world I assume but pretty good)
trouble is residents...
ARE TOTAL GARBAGE XD
and I am xenophil
if I pick xeno compatibilty ... can I play around this or not?
or... is there any "xenophil" way to get rid of them
they are at stone age
should I rise them up? should I conquer them? or someting else ?

 

[sbytheway]

If you conquer them they won't grow much on your worlds until you get some habitability techs because there is a scaling malus to a pop being picked for growth once habitability goes under 60% - so they may be garbage but they'll mostly stay on their paradise until late game (or if you colonise a tomb world or something, which because of their extremely adaptable trait means they'd actually be more suited to than your species )

 

[sbytheway]

they are not extremly adaptable... you are mistaking it with tomb world habitabilty
they are extremly UNADAPTABLE! they can only habitate perfect worlds like gaia or ring etc...
it they were as you said I was crying here from happiness right now

I want to know how do xeno compatibilty works... can cross breed have gaia trait or not?

Look at the trait to the right of their gaia world preference, it's the extremely adaptable trait

I think half species inherit their habitability from the species they get listed under, but I'm not sure

what I want to know how will they interact with xeno compatibilty
I mean gaia is too bad I dont want it to cross into my other species since my actual species are nomadic .

by the way can you edit your recent respond I noticed what you mean before and took my respond back so its just confusing to have it now

I think I got it

since my species are nomadic most likely 1 of species will be nomadic while other sedentary
so if it is nomadic gaia... it will be trash
