Psionic Theory as Materialist

Description
Updated v3.14.*

Removes the penalty for unlocking the Psionic Theory tech as a Materialist empire. By default, Materialists can never research this tech, unless they randomly get Psionic pops. This removes that penalty, and allows you to still research the tech just as any other empire would be able to. Of course, it is still an incredibly rare tech, and Spiritualists still are the most likely to get it. You can check your chance to get it in the console with the "techweights soc" command. It'll likely be near the bottom. :) Make sure to have a Society scientist with the Maniac trait for the highest chance to unlock it!

Now you can roleplay as the big-brain, telepathic empire you've always wanted!

Also feel free to check out my other Stellaris mods!

Is this still working?

I've shoved it down to the bottom of load order but it seems to not be working.

Hi there. Great mod, just what I've been looking while playing with mods with multiple ascension paths. But I noticed that recently you fixed Psionic Theory not showing for gestalts, but you forgot to do the same for further techs like Psi-Jump Drive. But there will be one small problem with Psi-Corps giving non-gestalt jobs in this case.

Perfect! I just tested with several different types of gestalts, and Psionic Theory will now appear normally :)
Thanks again for the awesome work!

@Reaniel Ok, updated. It should work properly now. But again, you need to have unlocked tier 3 society techs, so it won't be possible to research at the start of a new game, for example.

Thanks. I just did a quick test, but the tech isn't showing up for Gestalts (both machine and hivemind), and new games didn't work either.

I'm guessing it could be more complicated than the way Materialists are blocked (instead of merely checking for the civics).

@Reaniel Hey I updated it. Let me know if it doesn't work for you. :)

Run "techweights soc" in the console to make sure psionic theory appears assuming you have unlocked the tier 3 society techs already. I don't have a gestalt empire that's made it this far so let me know. :)

Thanks a bunch! You're a godsend! :)
