[quote who="Larsenex" reply="32" id="3643198"] So the 'embassy' we get does not give a 1 point per turn like it used to or it does but we can only build one building? I get that we are making the diplomacy game HARDER, that is fine. My typical tech path was to rush to Embassies to plant them on a few planets to OFFSET the inevitable DOWs that come 100 turns into the game. I take it this will no longer help nor is it even a good path to follow anymore. [/quote] Diplo

[quote who="Mystikmind" reply="3" id="3643122"] I do like the idea of not having to bother with all that searching around.... it is very time consuming, so if there is not all that much advantage too anomalies for the player, i would prefer not to bother?

[quote who="Wotan2a" reply="62" id="3643113"] BTW, I really like the buff you gave to the military starbases, darn things are actually viable now and useful. Wish there was a way to buff up the shipyards too since those are just specialized starbases anyway and would be heavily defended. [/quote] Can beef them up a bit, but cant add modules, I tried :).

[quote who="Wotan2a" reply="55" id="3643054"] Terraforming seems to be overpowered, after getting the first tech i can terraform entire planets, this is similar to an older mod that was going around last year. it is fun to build these huge planets but it is very OP if the AI cannot make good use of it. It also makes some of the ideological choices that give extra tiles redundant. if the idea is to keep it this way and make the AI also use it then the ideological choices should be updated

That is normal, there is a file that the game changes(a cache file of some sort most like). When you do a verify steam thinks a file is corrupt. This has been confirmed by the Devs and is not a problem.

TechDefs, TechSpecilizationDefs and the TechText are what you need to change. I would not use the Generic tree, simply because there are code blocks with the name Generic, so doing a quick rename will break this and cause the game to crash, you would have to change each one the slow way if you do. Use the tree you want to use the most, Thalan from the sounds of it, do a quick replace of Thalan to Sheva in all 3 files, rename them to suit your new faction. Boot the game, see it i

I still find that even with the reduced values on the Embassy tiers and Starbase Diplomacy modules, on large maps (or maps with lots of planets) Diplomacy is still over powered. I racked my brains on how to keep compatibility with all map types and have decided to change the way the Embassy tiers work. I have made them player wonders, so they are limited to one per faction, given them a flat bonus of 4, 8 and 12. On top of this I have further reduced Starbase Diplomacy modules to 0.1,
