[mod] [Stellaris] Lustful Void

Some info on the Sexopolis Mod for the modder.

 

I have played Sexopolis alot and have noticed that the AI seems to biuld Sex Habs in bulk and never colonize them. This seems to stop them from making a fleet as they keep spending alloys on Habs not Ships. Not sure if its just a weighting thing but I had to turn it off as it made late game empires toothless.

 

As you have recently taken this on I thought it would be useful information.

Every major update makes lv act fucky, update should be easier this time if the tools paradox added aren't super complicated but then again what do i know, i don't make mods

Is there compatibility to sexually dimorphic races mods? Set a race to all female, but it's still showing a mix of male/female.

Game just got a big update yesterday, give Lithia time to bring LV up to date.

Oh, so you're saying it already is a thing and is just broken at the moment?

The mod originally controlled this through a 0 cost trait, with the latest update Paradox made this into a mainline feature so I imagine that Lithia is seeing if it can be incorporated into the mod and hooked into all of the features that are currently keyed off the traits.

Oh, yeah, the female only mechanics are working just fine. It's just that it doesn't force all the population and species portraits to female. I just assumed this mod had no interaction with the sexually dimorphic species mods themselves.

It doesn't and that mod is redundant know anyway.

Redundant how? As far as I'm aware the base game still doesn't have sexually dimorphic portraits for most species.

I assumed it was about having mono gendered species.

What interaction would you want it to have? That other species are weirded out by your manly women?

I honestly don't see how your mod would make a difference gameplay wise.

Sorry, I forgot for a moment what your SJW words mean. I assumed it was about having mono gendered species.

 

TFW you forget that sexual dimorphism is an actual term in biology to describe differences between sexes in a species, and not some woke buzzword you're so quick to shit on.

Where base game falters, modding will rise. Colourful and Dimorphism Pack is the best collection.

It's not really that surprising that someone would be such a tremendously insecure dweeb that they feel threatened by some of the most basic scientific terminology, heaven forbid someone mention actual academic sociological terms and make the guy have a fit over somthing something sjws something something video games something something women existing.

The Internet does this to people.  Makes them small-minded, and equate things in bad/stupid ways, and throw around terms with no sense for their meaning.  It's insane that something like 'social justice' can even be used as a negative, especially in this world where everything is going into corporate hell.

[Zorlond]

Everything's getting needlessly polarized these days. Social Justice shouldn't be a terrible thing, it should be an equalizing force. Sexual Dimorphism shouldn't be a trigger word, it's just a scientific term.

 

Opposing charges growing further distant, concentrated, and more powerful is not a good thing. It's the recipe for a destructive lightning bolt as the power seeks ground state.

So no phalic shaped tentacle portraits in the upcoming aquatics race pack. Who is going to step up? Bonus points for animation of the portraits (those are the best packs in my opinion).

My mind is apparently further in the gutter because my first thoughts were:

 

Portrait #2 : "I bet a large dong could be edited over the left leg."

Portrait #10 : "I bet the tail could be edited into one big tentacle dong, or maybe repurpose the smaller back arm(s) into hanging dong(s)."

Portrait #12 : "It's already got tentacles, but the lower part of its body could probably be changed into an egg sac with a hanging ovipositor."

 

Though tbh, the molluscoid hydra portrait and the plantoid portrait that occasionally dives into a patch of leaves would make better bases for tentacle swarm portraits.

[Fakenet]

You call me smalll minded and whatever else but look at how fast you pile up on me.

Sorry that I am not a native speaker and only know these terms from the entioned source, I will castigate myself for the language I was brought up with.

It's not because you didn't know the word, it's because you referred to it as an "SJW word" like a big fat chud.

Exactly, no one's shitting on you for being a non-native english speaker. We're shitting on the fact that when you see an unfamiliar scientific term, you have a kneejerk reaction and call it an "SJW word" instead of taking 5 seconds to google what it means. 

Seriously I swear the self-identified "anti-sjws" bitch about wokeness more than the sjws themselves

Trust me Raaana you are not the only person with that mindset. Kinda hard to wind up on this site without being at least a bit perverted 

 

On the topic of this actual topic which seems to not be relevant to the current topic.

 

Looking over the patch notes, 3.2 should actually be a bit of a boon to this mod as now there are some very useful options for eventing based on pop gender meaning there could be some excellent new mechanics in the future. I look forward to see what you come up with next Lithia.

I agree, close but a little modification required. Sadly not in my skillset so I put it to my equally depraved community.

I have been (slowly) grinding away at an animated replacer mod that I'm hoping will serve as a catch-all for the vanilla portraits. So hopefully I can fulfill that wish eventually.

 

They'll be a bit on the cartoony side though, and won't be a complete 1:1 conversion, since my digital art skills rest in vector art. So I can't do anything of the same detail as the vanilla portraits, but vector art is also really easy to adjust so it'll be a lot easier for anyone to expand upon the portraits as a result.

 

Mostly just slogging through the tedious task of creating templates for each portrait. Once those are done the remaining work is just a simple, if also tedious, task of recoloring everything. Especially since I'm planning on including two additional portrait categories on top of the vanilla sets.
