Hopefully this finds others that have been confused as I was well.

I think

@Space Force: Droop Snoot, the problem is UI Compat with that Planetary mod.

Can you also take a look at the auto modding trait bug that won't allow different auto modding traits to stack? The devs listed this problem as 'fixed', but those traits still aren't stacking.

Any plans to try fix the crash that happens in machine world districts when a specialization is picked for a district?

Oh sounds interesting

New fixes are on hold for the duration of #MODJAM2025, as I will be focused on my entry. Keep an eye out for the Coexistence Protocol once submissions are revealed!

ah thats sad to know

That is unfortunate. I don't think there's anything I can do about it though.

they never did fix it

leaders that start with additional levels don't get their traits, is it possible for you to fix, please?

be nice if it is i like haveing all the Crisis on but when only 2 work and 1 if the two cetana kinda sucks

I spent some time trying to figure out the scourge bug and didn’t make any progress, but it sounds like it will be fixed in the next patch.

@Realhollow I just went to check and while it seems as though the Necrophage issue has been fixed, nothing has been done with regards to slavery or general pop assignment to jobs based on their suitability for them.

@mech think they fixed that in the patch today

I don't know if this bug is within the realm of fixing in this mod, but no one else has a fix for it yet so I'll mention it: Currently, slaves are automatically assigned to civilian roles if possible, and job selection totally ignores pop efficiency at that job. If you can catch the source of this, it'd be big.

awesome it makes them pointless as they dont kill what they take just seams to cause lag

I'll look in to it.

@sushi is there any way you can fix the pops not being purged by the Scorge and the contingency?
or is this something pdx needs to fix

Just tested a new campaign and the popups are gone. Curious how you and Ariphaos are co-ordinating. "who goes first?"

Should be fixed as soon as steam verifies the upload, let me know if you're still having issues with the 4.0.16 version of the mod.

Sorry about the blank popups, this mod hasn't yet been updated to 4.0.16. Give me a few minutes.

@Zyptan
This can be caused by other mods also... i have same issue, removing this one is not resolving it, so it must be something else

I don't understand, OMG. I first did what Ater Rose said. It didn't work. I then deleted the whole file; that didn't work either. I then disabled the whole mod, and that also didn't work. I'm so confused as to what is causing these annoying pop-ups.

@aterroseum, did you use a debug tool to check what was causing it? If so, what did you use?

finally found the mod that's causing the blank notification pop outs lol.

oh whew at least we found the blank popup cause. Man, i swear paradox loves to release stuff then just when we think they are done with patching BLAM they hit us again and messes tons of mods up.

This and "MEM" are the causes/conflicts with 4.0.15 (and the .16 open beta).
bisected my mod list down to this mod. Running alone it causes the issue on an otherwise vanilla game, and with mods, same issue. I don't use the MEM mod, but they are reporting the exact same problem.
Infinite empty dialog box on campaign start (AFTER unpausing.)

@SushiDragon

2 blank pop ups per day. The cause is the "machine_age_crisis_events.txt" file within the events folder. The 2 events are consistently revolving around "crisis.21140" and "crisis.21135".

Fun fact, if you just accept this coming in constantly, turn auto-pause off, and keep playing then reload later. That reload will bring back every single popup that had occurred even if you dismissed them all previously.... why did I do this to my self, too stubborn to go figure out why this was happening 30 in-game years ago lmao.

Anyways, Paradox changed the syntax for adding traits to a leader which is bugging out the events. Apostate diplomacy id crisis.21125 specifically causes the chaos and if you use the new syntax in the new copy of the vanilla file for the 6 traits, it stops the non-stop pop-ups. Note you will need to do this to crisis.21140 as well for 1 trait.

Yeah, this mod is bugged right now, if it's enabled it creates blank pop-ups every ingame day no matter what.

I think the blank event popups happen with the airphos 4.0 mod

Can confirm this mod is currently displaying unlimited blank Event popups. I'm unsure if this is a modded conflict of some kind as Lichlord claimed it was ACOT which I am not using. I had this mod at the very top of the list with no success, it's currently making the game unplayable.

This mod causes the black event popup spam with ACOT https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1419304439

Thanks you

You can try with IntelliJ IDEA and then open descriptor.mod, and there will be a great surprise

I have not tried to write mods with IntelliJ

@Averious top of load order

Hi @SushiDragon I wanna to know that, have you ever tried to write mods with IntelliJ IDEA?

Where in the load order is this supposed to go? Top? Bottom?

Is the current slavery issues considered a bug? All my slaves are turned into civilians on my planets and my decadent specialist/ruler focused founding species does all the jobs. I even used pleasure seekers so that any unemployed pops of my main race were still "happy".

I'll see what I can do about enforcers.

Does this inc the crisis factions not purgeing pops?

+ Enforcer Job Bug Fix

Can you add the Enforcer job not being filled bug?

можешь сделать чтобы ПОПы изначально рождались без специализации, обычными рабочими, а уже потом распределялись по профессиям

The collection works fine for me. Are you using any other mods? And can you send me the crash log?

Okay I'm working on fixing it.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3477722861 this is the collection in question

Can confirm. Top of load order, CTD.

What’s the Aether collection? Did you put this mod at the top of your load order?

Mod's causing CTD on load for me, from the Aether collection.
