!Civics Variety Patch for GVP

A grab bag of new civics.

This is a "civics-only" patch of my Government Variety Pack mod, which is required to use this. All this mod does is blank out all new government definitions so that you just get the civics. Don't install both if you want everything GVP has to offer! There is also an Origins Variety Pack which adds just new origins (which are also included here). You can remove these new origins from this mod with the No Origins Patch.

Compatibility and Testing Notes

There should never be any reason for this to be incompatible with any version of Stellaris because all this does is override mod-added files. You can almost certainly ignore any version incompatibility warning. Because it is just a patch for my mod that blanks out files from my mod, it will be rarely updated (e.g. only if I add new government files to GVP). #protectingmytime

This mod's assets have to override GVP's and that is a question of load order, but load order now doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the mod name anymore apparently. I have heard it goes by subscribe order?? If so, and this is not working for you, try unsubscribing to both this and GVP, then subscribe to GVP, then subscribe to this. Or else try a mod manager, idk.

This should also be compatible with any backup/old version of GVP. You'll just have to ignore the warning about lacking a required mod.

Known Issues

If you see any weirdness in empire names, install this patch.

I will... try to keep this up to date, but the most complete listing is at the GVP page. (Actually in its own dedicated thread because I hit the character limit!)
