Description:

District Overhaul 2 for Stellaris Version 2.7.*

Make sure to put this mod at the bottom of the list in the Stellaris Launcher.

If your resolution is lower than 1080p, you can use any other UI mod that allows you to have more than 4 districts.

Ever felt that the Stellaris District Mechanics don’t 100% make sense? This mod aims to improve that. District Overhaul 2 will semi-randomly generate alternative districts on all your planets. Additionally it adds new unique mechanics to improve the district system.

40+ new districts
Many new jobs and deposits

technologys and decisions to construct secondary districts
Special mechanics for special colonys like resort worlds
A new ascension perk that will allow you to construct underground cities
A new ascension perk that will allow you to infinitly expand your habitats
A new policy to switch between centralized and rural housing

The new district system:

Each planet has the basic housing district (city/hive/nexus)
Random weighted generation that every planet has a semi-random mining, farming and generator district
Primary districts are randomly added to planets to provide special resources (primary districts are those that require deposits)
Secondary districts that are choseable via decisions after unlocking the respecitve technology (secondary districts are uncapped and limited to one type per planet)
A decision to upgrade your secondary district when you unlock an additional tech and you planet has more than 40 pops to get powerful bonuses
Special districts like slums for thrall worlds (those worlds have modified mechanics)
Expanded ringworld districts with the asteroid belt mining (counts as a secondary) and a universal district for gestalt empires
Ocean districts as a unique mechanic, their deposits reduce the planets max amount of districts, but the districts increase to planets max amout of districts
Underground cities as a powerful district locked behind an ascension perk, which grants a one time per planet decision to find suitable caves, in those caves you can constuct cities which won’t indirectly reduce the planets possible amount of districts

District Overhaul AI:

the district AI has been completly overhauled
the AI will build the districts requiered to stabilize it’s economy
the AI will prioritize building districts on planets that have relevamt positive modifiers on them

Stellaris Origin System:
District Overhaul 2 rebalances some of the Origins in Stellaris. Sometimes this is simply a job rebalance, but especially the remnants origin has been reworked to add new districts to your homeworld
