Building My Own Planet In Stellaris...

[@Ep3o]

Shall I take on the blokkats?

[@Elowiny]

As the creator of the Blokkats whose opinion is entirely unbiased, I say that you should, yes

[@colecook834]

Of course. You should always defeat the blokkats or die trying

[@williek08472]

Palpatine: Dewit

[@ScorpioneOrzion]

You should, or at least die trying

[@ThatGuyNicho]

Please God, Ep30, do *not* do that.

[@nacl4988]

Playing Frameworld without Rouge Servitor is a war crime. Its free resources. *And the Devs know, and added a diminishing returns to it after 50 bios*

[@Ep3o]

I have played too much RS recently, wanted to mix it up :D

[@demavend6847]

And it's still insanely strong. I did a run with Frameworld Rogue Servitors with the diminishing returns in effect and each of my drones still had nutso resource generation.

[@TTFTCUTS]

@@demavend6847 Yeah and servitors on frame are getting nerfed hard come next gigas patch. But, the frame will be available for all country types rather than just machines.

GIGASTRUCTURAL ENGINEERING

[@TTFTCUTS]

Hey there, I'm part of the Gigas team, and the one who wrote the frameworld. Glad to see that you are having... some kind of a time with it! The galaxy tooltip thing for asteroid harvest is, well, the tooltip for the system in the galaxy map. When you mouse over the system while viewing the galaxy at large, it'll have the info in the tooltip there, same as vanilla terraforming candidates and ice mining with hydrocentric. It's the best we can do for it as the info on the galaxy map isn't very moddable.

[@Ep3o]

That’s frustrating that there’s not really a good way to show it on the map, as a suggestion would it be possible to do something similar as the survey for different star types? That was so helpful when trying to find places easily for specific structures! Great mod as always, thanks for making it! Having a bunch of fun figuring it all out and experiencing new stuff :D

[@TTFTCUTS]

@@Ep3o It iiiiis possible to do something like map the stars, but also that edict is an absolute mess on the inside... I've been trying to think of a better way to deal with it but none of the options are great. If you have any other questions about pretty much anything in the mod, I'd be happy to answer as much as I can.

[@Ep3o]

@@TTFTCUTS ah, that makes sense! It worked pretty well for me though :D I think that was it, a lot of stuff I figured out, was just hard / frustrating to find asteroids haha

[@invurret9533]

​@@TTFTCUTSHey, odd question. I don't play the mod or any mods at all, but do you guys have a black hole bomb? And if you don't, are you considering adding one?

[@bizmasterTheSlav]

I just want to thank you guys for making such a great mod. Your mod literally breathes new life into Stellaris (I have played it since 2016, so for me it's very important, I already know pretty much everything about the vanilla). Gigastructures is DEFINITELY the best Stellaris mod ever. Not only stellaris, but probably any paradox game too (sorry Kaiserreich, but you're not as grandiose as Gigastructures)

[@kaptan_davuk]

50% ''this origin is not that stronk'' 5% Katzen 15% Steve 30% ''My transports got destroyed''

[@kabobawsome]

Part of the Frameworld origin is that you need to be CONSTANTLY eating asteroids. Asteroids become your primary expansion, and even war, target, well over any planets. I think that's why you were having troubles. That and falling behind on tech due to not building the Science kilostructures. Also, you can add a large number of megastructures to the Frameworld via decision. Highly recommend you do that, some of the jobs get insane with the level of buffs you can get on it.

[@foreignfat6009]

I mean, it still sucks. But it is still fun.

[@cringelord7776]

Make sure you upgrade the frame world to a maginot world, you can also add a Penrose sphere to the frame world via a decision

[@dumpsterman4]

What a coincidence I only enable gigastructural engineering when I'm in the mood for a frame world run and I've been thinking about doing another the last few days.

[@Ep3o]

dew it

[@jsamue12]

Try it with rogue servitors if they’re not disabled

[@dumpsterman4]

@@jsamue12 They aren't disabled, they have diminishing returns after a certain number of bio-trophies but they're certainly one of the best options for it. I haven't done it since the leader update but I would usually offer myself up as a prospectorium to get the governor boosts for +20% alloy and minerals and energy too and then break free.

[@archmagemc3561]

You can beat standard blokkats with a couple solar systemcrafts and some hit and run tactics. Fighting them on endtekk or obliterator though.... ooh boy thats a different beast altogether.

[@AndrewTheUltraBoss99]

You have to become a God at that level and not even being One Is enough, you Need to spam (but tbh at that point spamming isn't a problem, the outer gate produce so much stuff Is unreal

[@thomasjunker5415]

Always love seeing Gigastructures content!

[@RovingTroll]

This is a really fun origin for rogue servitor

[@Bsn12778]

If you haven't already done it, you can integrate some of the big megastructures into the frame to upgrade your districts. For example, penrose improves generators, matter decompressor upgrades mining bays, and the maginot world upgrade lets you turn it into a defensive behemoth.

[@hi117117]

when a fleet has one fleet power like that, it's not an overflow because it takes a quite big increase in fleet power in order to make that one any bigger. I haven't exactly figured out how it works because for some fleets it can go from one fleet power and then if you move to another system it comes down to something like 200,000 to 300,000. My theory is that there's some kind of bug in the actual calculation of Fleet power that makes probably something go to zero and then they add one, so you wind up with just one fleet power. if it were an actual overflow, then you would have a whole range of small numbers after you get too powerful, but it's always only one which suggests that it's something different.

[@TTFTCUTS]

The game shows a minimum value of 1. When the calculated power goes negative due to overflow, it ends up as that.

[@trixie2558]

Unless it overflows into negatives. I don't know the game code, but if it does, that would make sense, assuming it autoprints negatives as 1.

[@secale1264]

love this!!! such a unique and interesting origin

[@gapho5198]

I never like setting up outposts with the frameworld origin, they give way too much colony empire size for what they give in return.

[@blackknight4623]

I’ve been wanting to play with the gigastructure mod but I’m terrified of how much it changes lol

[@breadtoast1036]

be not afraid its actually waaaayy easier to understand once you do 1 play through and once you get it youll find it hard to play without it, having planets has a manned ship makes you feel like a god and even more so once you unlock solarcraft but beware Fallen Empires much harder

[@VAArtemchuk]

You know what's really broken with the frame world? Servitors. How about +300% to pop output? 1000%?

[@michaellopate4969]

They get nerfed the more you have though, because otherwise it would be insanely OP.

[@VAArtemchuk]

@@michaellopate4969 It's not enough of a nerf. I legit got 500% long before I conquered the entire galaxy.

@@VAArtemchuk I mean you're not wrong.

by the way you can set your planet automation to automaticaly only watch your ammenaties and it will close excess. but it works best in gestalt consciousness empires.

[@lordkingsmen9503]

this is my favorite origin in this mod!

[@medical-cyanide1526]

My last game I played i finally came across the Blakkats, but at this point in the game I had started to get frustrated, I was by far the strongest empire, had more tech, diplo power, resources, and military strength but due to a series of events I cang only guess at the entire galaxy got into a single federation other then a few outliers. (my best guess is roughly half of the galaxy had formed a federation probably in response to me, as well as another empire had vassalized roughly the other half of the galaxy, somehow the overlord got into the federation and all of the vessels were dragged in as well.) what this meant in the long term is while i could expand I really, really didn't want to go through the tedious process of claiming every last planet, so I finished the crisis event chain planning to ascend to end the game. but then the Blakkats spawned, I was curious and mas my way over to their spawn location and even set up two of my strongest fleets as well as a captured planet craft, long story short i realized i could damage them, and while they technically could hurt my fleets due to ACOT they couldn't do all that much too fast. so I dipped and baked the galaxy to lazzy to properly deal with em.

[@bobbyflynn6352]

I am also scared of the Blokkats. Playable Blokkats, when?

[@isuckatusernames4297]

oh man, gigastructures, a great mod. unless you don't like haing to go on a genocidal galactic wide rampage by the late/mid game. cause you ain't making it to the late game with all the other empires creating all the extra lag and all
