The Utopian Dream (2.0/2.1)

Requires Stellaris: Utopia DLC.

This mod includes specialised habitats and a huge terraforming world-shell.

Genesis Initiator
World-shapers can construct this around uninhabitable barren and frozen worlds. There are 3 stages and then the planet is turned into a living, breathing planet, capable of sustaining whatever life-forms you see fit to deposit on it.
Credit for original design goes to: NHunter. Modified with permission.

Habitat Variants
Whilst Voidborne will make all the variants available, they can all be alternatively unlocked by a combination of technologies. Except the Advanced Habitat, which is only unlocked with Voidborne.

• Habitat (Vanilla)
  12 tiles. Requires: Voidborne or Orbital Habitats tech.
• Hydroponics Hab
  9 tiles. Specialises in food production. Usually limited to construction around a planet rich in biomass and water.
  Requires: Voidborne OR Orbital Habitats tech OR Gene Crops & Fusion Power technologies.
• Mining Operations Hab
  9 tiles. Specialises in minerals production. Usually limited to construction around an uninhabitable ringed planet or an uninhabitable planet with an appropriate orbital deposit.
  Requires: Voidborne OR Orbital Habitats tech OR Mineral Processing & Fusion Power technologies.
• Solar Farming Hab
  9 tiles. Specialises in energy production. Usually limited to construction around a star.
  Requires: Voidborne OR Orbital Habitats tech OR Global Energy Management & Fusion Power & Ceramo-metal Armour & Improved Deflectors technologies.
• Advanced Habitat
  25 tiles. Requires: Voidborne.

There is now an Orbital Habitats technology that can potentially be researched before/without taking the Voidborne perk.

Lots of changes to Ascension Perks to make them less rubbish and more game-changing. Please see the slideshow for details.

Three new ascension perks have been added:

Land of Plenty
Begin a new chapter in our nation’s history by turning our planets into living Elysiums and truly achieving the goal of prosperity for all.

Colonial Fervor
Escape the confines of our home planet and allow our species to achieve its destiny as it spreads across the galaxy.

Multiculturalist Utopia
Attract the best talent from across the galaxy to join our project towards a multicultural utopia.

See the slideshow for details.

Just the one right now, but a few more are planned.

Orbital Ambitions
Provides a basic habitat in orbit of your homeworld at game-start, and unlocks the Orbital Habitats tech for building basic habitats at game-start.

This mod modifies the following vanilla files:
common/ascension_perks/00_ascension_perks.txt
common/edicts/03_planetary_edicts.txt
common/megastructures/03_think_tank.txt
common/megastructures/habitats.txt

If another mod over-rides one of these, it’s unlikely to be compatible with this mod. Other mods don’t list the files they over-ride. Ask the author of that mod about compatibility with this before asking me about compatibility. Please don’t take my availability for granted.

Works with v2.0.x and v2.1 of the game.
Does not need/works with/not included in AlphaMod.
