Tile max

[UknowitsE]

So i found a mod that lets me terraform planets up to the max 25 tiles which is great in my opinion just because I am always like, we can go into space and make a whole planet habitable but not increase the "usable land", just seemed weird both with this game and galciv 3, but anyway I digress. So I was wondering, because I want to break the game even more...anyone know of a way to modify the max tile number? I was even thinking, in case someone from the dev team sees this, they could inroduce a planet size system and scale the max usable tiles that way, cuz it doesnt seem thats how it is done now, maybe it is I havent really looked.

Your wish will be granted in the next patch , friend.

tiles will be removed, and respectively will be replaced with districts and huge city-wide planets being able to be made. Planets will be able to go up to 250 pops I believe.

imagine taking one of those as a devouring swarm

Wait, is that official? The planet changes I mean. Omg, my swarm is so ready for this, if it's true!!!

Oooh, that's awesome! How is it gonna affect resources? Aaaa, I'm so excited!!

Most likely they will be fixing swarm mechanics as well, or maybe they'll make huge city-planets hard to get and not change swarsm, I hope for the latter, since wide empires with 200+ pop planets is stupid in my opinion. Or at least they should be hard to attain. Keep the Tile mechanics or atl east alter them to be based on 25 until you get an ascension perk or such and then have them become able to do city-wide planets. That would be best personally, but idk others have different opinions most likely.

It doesn't change the fact that a planet size will still be limited. So no, the 25 'tiles' cap is probably still a thing even in 2.3.

25 in terms of districts(tile equivalent) yes, 250 in terms of population. That's a VASTLY big difference. However, from my view of the districts, you could probably mod the planets to be bigger.

Yeah, more pops that need cpu cycles to figure out their needs every single day...

I believe though I don't have the quote handy that they have stated that planet size will be moddable, so you can have a 100 size planet. Size simply caps the total number of districts possible, so it's not game breaking for it to exceed that now.

The big CPU cycles wasn't the pops needs, it was the pop trying to work out if it should move tiles on any AI managed planets. The new jobs system will be far less intensive for working out if it should move jobs.

Afaik the developers stated that most of the workload for the PC regarding pops wasn't due to their needs, but rather due to the AI constantly reshuffling them on the tiles in an attempt to maximize resource output.

As that's apparently regulated rather strictly now, we're likely to see less load rather than more.



Edit: lol, way to restate what someone above you already stated, huh? Don't mind me, just parroting nevyn0ad. >_<

Oh, they actually acknowledged something I found out 2 days after release? I'm sure you can find the post if you go through my history. Way to go. Maybe there's hope. For Stellaris 2.

Don't let me stop you from wallowing in misery.
