Update this or i'll be really mad at you

@Prof. von Calamity Gigastructural Engineering & More has this kind of structure integrated so I don't think this will be updated.

Is there a realistic chance of this mod being updated for compatibility with the new 2.3.0 , or is it hopeless?

Joining my voice to "the plz upate" crowd

will you update it to the 2.0 version?

UPDATE PLSSSS

Please update the mod to the current version of stellaris when possible.

y'know, there is actually a theoretical megastructure that does this that vaguely obeys the laws of physics. It's called a star lifter.

this would be epic if it looked like the star forge from Kotor 1

why not make a mod that makes this star forge look like the one from KOTOR

Maybe the Star Forge scoops up hydrogen from the star, fuses it into iron and processes it into shippable materials?

This look nothing like the Kotor Star Forge. But still pretty coool

500 is way too much....or is that the point?

Current physics, you can theoretically convert mass to energy and back.

The total entropy would need to be constant, according to E=mc^2

No update?

Looks like this mod may cause instability in the game as it currently is.

Hello.
Is it possible to upgrade this mod for 1.6 version?
Thanks.

Hello. Could you please add russian localisation for the mod?
You can grab it here:

@Averax If you have the time, could you please give the star forge an event like vanilla does for the energy dyson sphere upon the stages completion? im always forgetting it even exists because i get no alert/popup while the other megastructures do, Really love the mod tho as its a lifesaver in minerals

i mean its not magic you are just creating minerals through harvasting of suns

how about a mod that make this megastructure look like the Star forge itself

It's not quite magically. Theoretically, you can transform energy into matter

@qiwi checksums you have to choose between building one or the other :)
@molberg its requirements are the same as a dyson so you'll unlock it with the same perk :)

Do I unlock this alongside the Dyson Sphere? Or do I need to use another Ascension Perk?

Why not /also/ have 500 energy?

@Amberlight Isaac Arthur is dope! You read my mind!

Eeeee Isaac Arthur! I was just about to post the same link!

Speaking of, here is a good material on starlifting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzuHxL5FD5U

Call it a Star Lifting Facility. It's a reasonable concept of lifting matter from the star - after all, even though stars are mostly made out of helium and hydrogen they have more heavy elements than all the planets in the solar system combined - just because the stars are so massive.

Or you could assume that instead of making materials out of nothing, it makes energy like a dyson sphere but then your empire automatically trades it off for minerals.

Maybe the interior of the forge is just ramscoops? Plus, you can still use the solar energy to initiate the fusion reactions.

True, but a bunch of solar panels doing all that is the part that doesn't make sense :P

Stellar lifting is realistic though. Stars puke out a lot of hydrogen that you can use in fusion reactors to get power and helium. Then you use the helium to get power and and lithium, and so on, until you get iron. Then you just get iron by turning magnesium into iron, and anything more complex then iron, you actually lose energy due to the nuclear fusion.

Good mod though.

@dh yes sorry. I'll mark it in the description.

need utopia dlc?

THANK YOU FOR THIS THANK YOU THANK YOU ~ BOB

if you use his mod dont forget to rate him up and give some appreciation

@robobird cheers :)

@Averax
I can make a german localisation. But I'm currently working on another one and having strange trouble there. I'll come back when I'm finished.

@warangel yep :) energy is important too!

okay so i can have both that good that was i was asking bc i like get energy as well

@warangel you cna have both the star forge is independant :)

dose this taake the plase Dyson Sphere or is Star Forge some thing it self

If anyone can help with the localisation for foreign languages it is very much appreciated :)
