The source code

[Partl]

Dont let ppl see it - i know its impossible to do, cos modding. There will always be a mathematically founded "way to go", if ppl are able to see the "source code". Damn - this whole rant is useless.

Those 30 seconds that you took out of your day to create that uhh... rant... you're never going to get them back!

Seriously though... what? Pretty much all of the major formulas are public knowledge, and in games where they're not, people have proven rather good at figuring them out just playing around with stuff and spreadsheeding the results.

And there's nothing wrong with that. If you don't want to min-max, ignore the min-maxers and play however you want to play.

What?

Well, you won't be able to get the source code, if that is what you want, because Stellaris works under a proprietary license.

If I don't get to the source I can't save Trinity.

i have seen the sauce code. it goes great with spaghetti.

I dont think thats much of a issue in Stellaris. I assume that most people play it as a sort of space empire roleplay game were you create the empire you wish.

Completely devoting yourself to min maxing Stellaris sounds boring tbh :P.

That said, it would likely effect what choices to make if you know that one choice is better and both choices suits your image of the empire.

It is in Multiplayer - its all about min maxing there, leading to generic and boring mineral-focused gameplay. Lets hope it will be better with 2.2, but yet again - ppl will look up the code, and find the new to go meta.

There is nothing wrong with it - its legitimite. But it is leading to every single person going the same direction - gameplay wise. Thats what i am complaining about, knowing that it wont cange.

[RawCode]

there is no source code posted and due to non java\c# nature of game, you can't actually extract source, well, you can, but this will be somewhat time consuming task.

what do you mean like 40% of my post is helping people, 30% QQing about business models and stuff, 15% QQing about how 2.0 stole my precious wormhole and 15% miscelanious/jokes.

theres 3 people with this profile picture in here these days though.

Star does provide constructive feedback. The problem is that there really isn't anything on your original post that can be replied to since it is a non-issue. People min-max gameplay styles, not computer code. There is NO code that says going wide is better than going tall, that is done through game experience. Or that you should doomstack. That is by common sense.

Computer code does not tell you how to best play.
