Focus Types - Question/issue
Started a new run with the mod - Did the quest to get the Yeoman/first psypoint. In the psycaster screen I have a focus type called "Precursor" and I believe I already start with it (did not have to spend a point to pick it). What is it ? I cant find any information on it as a Focus Type, what buildings to use for meditation... ect. I dont believe its coming from another mod - and cant find anything on the boards or a good search about it.

Its early in the run so I can hold on to my point - but I would really like to know what "precursor" focus type is so I can start building more pysfocus.

Anyone...?
(Thanks in advance for all help)

I have no idea. It's probably something buried in your modlist. I have Save Our Ship 2, so all my pawns start out with the ability to meditate at late game Archospores (not to be confused with the archo-thing focus type).

I'm guessing it's from Ancients or something, but I have no idea as I don't use that mod.

For maximum focus generation, my favourite so far are Minimal (22% wall), Artistic (11-18% from one sculpture, with up to +2% for 8 nearby sculptures) and Research (~30% from a Simple Research Bench). My Technomancer is up to 109% Psyfocus/day from just that. Don't forget that each point in Psy Stats increases psyfocus generation by +10%.

Since psyfocus is what generates EXP, I usually prefer to invest in focus types first, then tree/ability unlocks. YMMV though.

Seems like a good place for me to post my question about focus types. I noticed they updated the mod and removed the ability to gain the natural focus. I assume this was to make tribal's more unique. I fill like it should only be aloud if you start as a tribe or have a tribal pawn as a leader. think of it as indoctrination to the culture. (ex Avatar)

That sort of thing is easy to honor rule.
