SUBMOD: ESC3 Vanilla Resources
AIs can’t even upgrade their ships from lack of vanilla resources, never mind giving it six more to manage. This submod converts ESC’s added resources into vanilla resources. Side effects include improved compatibility with UI mods, and reduced micromanagement.
[ESC = Extra Ship Components]
Submod version: 1.0 for ESC 3.0 for Stellaris 2.2.*
> removed new resource buildings and related jobs (zro, dark matter, etc not removed)
> swapped component costs from new resources to vanilla resources (including zro and dark matter)
> swapped ESC fallen empire new resource buildings to produce vanilla resources
> swapped edict costs to vanilla resources
> removed resource boosting edicts (except for research edict)
> removed food as a component cost; cost minerals instead
> removed techs made obsolete by the above changes: Crystalline Valuables; Improved Crystal Farm;
> Resource conversion factor:
1* living crystals -> 1* rare crystals
2* psionic charge -> 1* zro
2* gravitic anomaly -> 1* dark matter
transdimentional vortex -> varies: motes, gases, crystals (1* -> 1*) and dark matter (2* -> 1*)
1* enigmatic energy -> 1* dark matter
Do NOT use together with base ESC. This submod includes all of ESC, though updates will lag behind ESC itself. (this approach may change in the future)
Do use together with ESC Overwrites if you want/need.
Savegame: Requires new game. Safe to remove mid-game (if replaced by original ESC3).
