The tentacle worlds can not sustaine themselves, hence the tentacle start is not that good.

How to start on a hive mind tentacle world:

 

1. Prioritize milk drone jobs by clicking on their icon.

2. Lower amount of milk drone jobs by clicking the minus button.

3. Repeat step 2 until food is balanced between milk drone production and breeder consumption.

4. Profit

 

The hard part is energy production. As a hive, you don't have the trade producing sex jobs, so best bet is to sell excess food and take a slightly lower pop growth speed. Plus if you take traits that produce resources like lithoid strategics or lv combined traits/milky orgasm, you will have a better time of it. I did a quick run with only intellectual on my species and could balance it mostly.

I noticed that something was off with The tentacle world empire in last weekend when game spawned the Hive Mind Empire next to me. It didn't expand its territories like other AI empires and there was plenty territories to claim before I used 'Debugtooltip' command to see what's up. Ai had disbanded its fleet and economy was awful, so I got empire accept become my vassal and after feeding bunch of minerals and alloys, empire started recover and expand its own borders.

So clearly AI doesn't know how run the Tentacle World empire's economy.

Well I finally found the culprit of my CTD when uplifting a primitive. It was UI Overhaul Dynamic. Not sure if it was a conflict with LV or another mod or not, but it was a PAIN to troubleshoot.

 

The crash happened as soon as the new vassal UI popped up when uplifting. Every time without exception.

Thanks for the heads up.

Lustful Void gives me some serious issues.. Well at least one. I can't build Power Generator Districts for some reason anymore. And I've checked all my mods. Lustful Void is the culprit somehow.

Edit: So If I build a very basic faction, with no content from LV on it, such as traits or Ethics, I can build Generators... Gonna do a bit more research.
Final Edit: For now I will leave this as it was. It is a potential bug. But it seems it might have been caused with me trying to speed bug test the game after the patch, and use already pre-built Empires of my own. Any new empires I make from scratch, including LV traits and ethics, seems to work just fine in relation to the Power Generator Issue I had.

Does anyone know where I can find all the source images for the event images for this mod? I know I can find the files but they are in a DDS format that my photo viewer won't open

If you're on windows you can just download paint.NET which is a free program that can open those files and if you want to you can then just re-save them as another image format iirc.
Seems like the easiest solution if you don't mind using an image editing program for it.

Do we have any idea when we can expect the mod to work with the new update? [Edit because of a typo]

There are bugs but nothing game breaking, some techs don't have the correct text.

If you are having issues with other mods it might be the other mods.

Hi, first time commenting on here. Just wondering how I get a Breeding Offensive Casus Belli? Great mod btw.

Assuming it still works you get it with the Nympo hosts (hivemind civic, and male equivalent) and maybe with full Snu Snu Fever for normal empires idk for sure. Might be another way but i dont know it myself

Also, you have to be next to the empire you want to breed with.

A Stellaris DLC update that doesn't totally break mods? That can't be right! ?

I'm still going to wait for the new LV update. I'm also hoping the other mods update soon after.

 

@Lithia<3 Hello, How are you doing?

[Gelatinous Nudes]

FYI, megacorps with the Franchised Prostitution civic can't build the sexy buildings in 3.4.  This is because the new Holdings system in 3.4 changed the way that corporate buildings are declared: It used to be branch_office_building = yes and now it's owner_type = corporate.  

I've attached a file that fixed the issue in my game: Pop this into the /common/buildings folder of either LV or your own mod that loads afterwards.  Happy hacking!

lv_branch_office_buildings.txt

 

UPDATE: This is fixed in the latest update.  Thanks @Lithia<3!

Hello. Can you tell me when the mod will be updated approximately? I just want to start playing, but if the mod comes out in a few days or a week, I'll have to start over...

Is there a way to have only the traits and new buildings/technologies? I prefer to RP than to see event.

I believe the LV options menu in Edicts will allow you to turn off the events.

How did you fix it? I cant use it either.

 

Edit: Never-fucking-mind I'm stupid. For future reference if anyone else is as dumb as I am: It's apparently just for certain hive minds. For some reason I associated it with the Invasive Breeders Origin for regular empires.
