Playable Robots

Version 1.52

Adds the ability to play as lovable and violent robots to Stellaris.

Select them from the "Android" category on the Empire creation screen.

Mod Features:

• Adds 16 Playable Android Races

• Android Variants, 84 Total Skins

• Android Name List

• Android City Type

• Android Ship Type

• 3 New Synthetic Themed Government Types

• Full Support for Various Auto-Generated Robot Empires (Currently Disabled)

• Works for multiplayer

• Should Work with Many Other Mods

Allows for the player to choose between playing as a full robot (buildable pops only, no food) or as a regular species (all rules as normal). It's completely optional and restricted to players only, so if you only want the portraits/ship types it's not a problem.

All you need to do is select the appropriate option on the event at game-start.

Complete Robot Experience Features:

• Your Pops no longer reproduce naturally

• Pops are purchasable from the "Build" menu on the "Surface" screen of your planetary view.

• Your Pops do not consume food, but are poor at producing it

• All Pops cost 1 Energy/month

• Options for immortality and sectors auto-building new pops

• The "Robotic Workers" "Droid Workers" and "Synthetic Workers" upgrade your Pops instead of unlocking vanilla robot Pops

• Support for all species classes to be synthetic (ie. Avian Reptillain Fungoid Android etc.)

• Full support for races added in "Playable Invaders"

• Completely optional, simply not selecting the "Synthetic" option at the beginning of your campaign will allow your species to function as if it were vanilla

Special Thanks

• Shadowclaimer for some of the excellent recolors

• Source for help with upgrading pops.

• MrRaoul for allowing me to integrate his fantastic Fix for GUI and multiples ships/cities

Known Issues/Limitations

• Built pops only copy traits from vanilla and the mod Extended Traits

• AI Races do not spawn naturally. This will be changed if I can figure out how to weight them low compared to other species.

• Android ship type does not highlight orange when clicked. Why? I don't know.

• Your species name is lost when choosing to become synthetic. Causes some text bugs.
