Stellaris Dev Diary #258 - 3.4.4 Cepheus Information


written by Eladrin Hi! Lets get straight to it! The 3.4.4 Cepheus patch is planned to be released sometime next week if everything goes well. Heres a preliminary list of things that will be included. "Stellaris 3.4.4 Cepheus Preliminary Patch Notes" [expand type=details] ################################################################# ########################## VERSION 3.4.4 ########################### #################################################################

Improvements


  • Automated Exploration and Automated Research are now available from the start of the game rather than being tech-locked.
  • Construction ships now have an Automated Construction mode, which will automatically build Research and Mining Stations over appropriate deposits. (It will not automatically build Observation Stations, Hyper Relays, or other constructions.)
  • Imperial Fiefdom changes
  • The Imperial Fiefdom overlord is now barred from terms that allow it to join offensive wars of their subjects.
  • Every member of the empire that does not start with the overlord nearby will start with a small overlord colony/outpost in the vicinity.
  • The overlord's empire will be connected by 'Derelict Gateways' that the overlord can use, but which become ruined once the civil war starts
  • Changed it so players can remain loyal to the overlord when the civil war begins, if they so wish. The AI will always go independent.
  • Added Hydroponics Station designation for habitats. This designation removes 2 housing from Habitation Districts in exchange for adding 1 farmer jobs.
  • Planetary automation will now seek to clear blockers as soon as there is any need. It now uses the same formula as the indicator on the outliner: i.e. if it is limiting the number of districts OR if there are buildings that could be built by clearing the blockers OR if planet growth speed is reduced (previous behaviour was to only check the first of those).
  • Made some clarifications for the Shroudwalkers, so it is clearer what asset you are getting from them and how the planet modifier works.
  • Criminal pops no longer reduce the efficiency of criminal syndicate branch offices
  • Quantum Catapult event art image added
  • Hyper Relay event art image added
  • New Overlord music track will now play in the main menu
  • Tooltip now mentions that setting up vassal resource sharing will prevent the affected resources from being traded in regular trade deals later
  • Empires created by releasing sectors or from status quo peace deals now have some starting resources to not immediately suffer deficits.
  • Clarified that Subjugation War Terms only apply to Vassals and Subsidiaries.
  • The tooltips for Resource Contribution terms now inform you that they block trade deals for the resources involved.
  • The Reemployment Center holding now shows when the next zombie will be created.
  • Spawning Pools and Progenitor Nests are now under the Pop Assembly building category.
  • Added subjugation agreement caps of +1,000 / -10,000
  • Refined the Teachers of the Shroud requirements tooltip.
  • Clarified that Progenitor Hives can only release sectors if they do not have the devouring swarm civic.
  • Players will now be notified when their Overlord has built Holdings on their planet
  • Starbase Transit Hubs now also fulfill the necessary requirement for slaves or non-sapient robots to automatically migrate from planets in the system.
  • The dividend event now specifies which enclave is paying its dues.
  • AI logic for voting on Free Migration has been adjusted to more strictly align with Xenophile/Xenophobe ethics
  • AI 10 year voting cooldown extended to now apply to other diplo actions like declaring war etc
  • Clarified the tooltip for the Strip Mine decision.

Balance


  • Ships now gain 5 exp per day in battle instead of 1.
  • Doubled the base unity output of telepaths.
  • Unified effects for Citadel of Faith, Auto-Curating Vault and equivalent buildings.
  • The Shroudwalkers have learned their lesson, and will no longer teach any Fanatic Purifiers about the Shroud. The Fanatic Purifiers will have to look for another origin now.
  • Bulwark Battlewright aura now provides 0.25% hull regen per day.
  • Bulwark Watch network effect no longer spawns too many armies. Instead it increases planetary stability by 5.
  • Being an overlord now imparts a -1000 penalty to diplomatic requests to be subjugated.
  • The Ministry of Science and Vigil Command now have an empire limit of 1.
  • The upkeep of Overlord Beholder jobs now scale with the tier of the Bulwark subject (and thus the increase in the defensive platform cap).
  • Reworked the Ministry of Science holding. It no longer provides increased research speed for the overlord depending on the number of science ships in orbit of the subject's planet. Instead it now gives subject researchers (or calculators or brain drones) research output for the overlord, with an appropriate increase in upkeep.
  • The Orbital Assembly Complex now increases the effects of modules built on the planet's orbital ring.
  • Habitation Modules provide +0.5 building slots.
  • Orbital Shipyards gain +1 Shipyard capacity.
  • Orbital Anchorages provide +2 Naval Capacity.
  • Planetary Defense Guns and Batteries support +1 Defensive Platforms.
  • Halved the hull and armor regen provided by Regenerative Hull Tissue, Nanite Repair System, Nanobot Cloud, Mercenaries, and Devouring Swarm. This will also affect the regeneration of leviathans and other entities that make use of these ship components.
  • Retrofitting ships will no longer pay out the resources left over after the retrofit costs have been applied.
  • Effects that granted modifiers to ship upgrade costs have been replaced with other modifiers. It should no longer be possible to be in a situation where it is cheaper to build empty ships and then upgrade them than to build them correctly right away.
  • Significantly reduced the amount of time it takes to build Ion Cannons. Reduced the base cost and upkeep of Ion Cannons, but they are now affected by components.
  • Reduced weighting for clerks as pops seemed to really want to work as them instead of miners
  • Merc dividends no longer give ships when the patron is near or above their naval cap.
  • Moved bonus resource storage for silos from tech_global_production_strategy to tech_construction_templates
  • If you declare a force ideology war on an empire, all non-gestalt overlords and subjects that are called into the war will also be subject to the force ideology effect.
