Cant. Activate. L gate.
Was having same issue in beta, still have same issue- i had gathered all insights and researched activation tech but did not have any L Gate inside my borders. Fought a war against Purifiers for an access to an L Gate (completly conquering them in the process). How the ♥♥♥♥ am i supposed to activate it now? There is nothing in journal, clicking on L Gate with a science ship does nothing too.

I stoped playing Stellaris completly weeks ago because of this bug- colonising L Cluster is the last thing i want to do before i start galactic conquest. And its still bugged!

(spam the last command until your gate is activated)


Full process and follow-ups (edits):


I tried doing some digging as in the same situation...gained insights without having an L Gate inside my borders...and so now locked out.

Looked through the tech and event files and tried some stuff. Got a special project spawned to activate the gate, but after a day it disappears again. After scouting the Galaxy Map, it looks like the AI has an activated L-Gate (it's white, not red)...so maybe I need to get access to that or wait for mine to activate randomly (see last command below).

(Edit: I reloaded a save before playing about with the commands and the AI L-Gate was NOT activated then...so something below worked)

(Edit2: Ok so if you spam "event distar.10960" it'll randomly enable an L-Gate on the map...I now have mine enabled!)

Here are some of the most notable commands anyway...maybe they might work for some of you. Depends on game state I imagine.

Research insights:

effect give_technology = { tech = tech_repeatable_lcluster_clue }

Research the L-Gate Activation Tech:

effect give_technology = { tech = tech_lgate_activation }

Check for gateway within borders (creates special project to activate gate):

event distar.10900

Enable random L-Gate:

event distar.10960

Which version of Stellaris are you playing currently? Which version was your game created under? Are you using any mods?

Music and cosmetic mods. Latest version, created during open 2.1.1 beta.

I haven't done any playing on 2.1.1_beta or 2.1.1. My understanding is that now there's supposed to be a tech you have to research before you can open the gate. You might have to wait until it pops up in your research list; I'm not sure.

Did you have an L-Gate in your territory at the time that you finished researching that tech? Ideally it shouldn't matter, but maybe that's the bug.

Read original post again before asking such questions.

Ah, yes, sorry about missing that. So, maybe that is the bug. Perhaps if you research the tech at a time when you do not control an L-Gate you miss the opportunity to open them.

It must not strike all the time, because I did not have one under my control when I got all the insights. It then told me I needed to capture an L-Gate and do a project on it using a science ship.

I was able to do so after capturing one and I opened the gate.

Did you start your game in 2.1.1_beta and then upgrade to 2.1.1?

I experienced the same thing in the beta. No L-gate & same bug for the final precur event. I also play with a bunch of mods... and was thinking it must have been one of them but with your report it may be the beta/now-latest-update after all.

No, I started the game in the newest version.

exact same issue. I DO have the L gate event in my journal (with 7/7 insight correctly showing), but just the description, and nothing to activate the gate with. Im on repeatable tech now so nothing to reasearch with regards the L gate. Tried to use science ship on it (just in case) but to no avail.
Would love to hear if this is a bug.

By the way, I started the game on 2.1.1 beta, and its Ironman so no console....

Well, considering the 3 of you that do have it started in beta and moved to this version and that I did NOT have the bug and I started in this version, leads me to believe its a bug associated with the move.

Never mind, ignore that. I just realized that the beta only ended today. So I was doing my earlier game with successful L gate use in the beta. But, it was finished before today, so it could still be a bug with that.

Just loaded it up agaion. I have completed the research (before i got the gate through war claim).
The journal shows 7/7 insight, and ther curators dont offer insight any more, but the journal also says, and I quote, "..and for now we lack the necessary insight...".
Weird. Been waiting a while, thinking I was waiting on tech RNG. Its now game year 2471...

BTW, tried to disband outpost and reclaim. Did nothing.
