xors Better Ethics Attraction

Description
Latest update for Stellaris 3.3.*

This mod aims to make the ethics attraction mechanic a bit more interesting and realistic.

Did you ever wonder, why your pops don't care about the fact that they are living next to a very dangerous empire?
And yes, pops without citizenship rights would love to get them too.
Your pops live in Utopian Abundance? I guess you're empire ethic have to be the only correct one there are, else the living standards wouldn't be that high, right?
You chose "Xeno-Compatibility" as Ascension Perk? Well... seems like you're a Xenophilic empire and your and pops will love those xenos too!
This mod also adds a bunch of smaller tweaks so that ethics attraction make more sense in general.

To give a better feeling about the massive size of the changes: This mod doubles the lines of code in the file that manges ethics attraction, from about 2500 to over 5000.

=== CONTENT: ===
  • rebalances vanilla ethics attractions modifier
  • adds ethics attraction modifiers for some special Civics
  • adds ethics attraction modifiers for some Living Standards
  • adds ethics attraction modifiers for some Ascension perks
  • adds ethics attraction modifiers for some jobs
  • adds ethics attraction modifiers for some buildings
  • adds ethics attraction modifiers for some federation types
  • and much, much more...

=== Known issues: ===
none that I know of

=== Compatibility: ===
  • can be activated during playthrough
  • works with and without DLCs
  • don't use with Better Faction Info. It's already included in this mod!
  • does NOT work with any mods that change anything about ethics! (for example rebalancing or more ethics and similar stuff)
  • does NOT work with any mods that change anything about factions! (for example more demands or something like that)
  • should work with kinda every other mod out there, except if they do also change the same files (see below)

Overwrites 00_ethics in common\ethics and all files in common\pop_faction_types

Please provide feedback and have fun!

And if you like what you see please

Thank you!

I'm very sure it still works fine with 3.4, but I will take a closer look in the future.
To elaborate further: the files this mod touches get very rarely changed by PDX so usually it's update-safe.

Looking forward to a potential update, and thanks for making this regardless; it's just about a must-use for me.

this also affect the authoritarian ethic?

I don't know, or maybe some things changed in the meantime since I updated the mod the last time. Either way, a mod update is probably coming soon-ish with the new patch, so maybe I can take a look at some issues you mentioned. Thanks for pointing it out.

The Recently Conquered modifier also already reduces government ethics attraction. And low living standards already reduce it via happiness. It kind of looks like you didn't notice the government ethics attraction modifier was a thing separate from the attraction factors in the ethics file and so recreated it via those.

Seems to me Utopian Abundance making people support your empire's ethics is already covered in vanilla via Utopian Abundance -> high happiness -> high governing ethics attraction?

having any trade routes probably creates materialistic attraction.

I still have a issue of materialists popping up and never going away when I have no attraction to it.

Also, is there a list of everything in this mod that generations faction attraction? What exactly is xenophobe echo chamber?

it is way better with this mod. i used another mod but that mod made it nearly impossible to have pops from another thic. i have just one question/observation. on the autharian description they want high livint dtandarts but when i do that the ethic atraction loese neraly 20 (form the 100 percent for alle ethics together)
