Description:

Disclaimer: Alpha version!

Mod that brings the classic Master of Orion 2 races and traits into Stellaris. I started this as a personal project but decided to share with the community. If there is enough interest, I’ll continue to expand and complete the mod. I’m quite open to feedback!

What’s already there:

– All 12 races (except for the Darloks, for obvious reasons) are fully implemented, with all the original traits and government personalities. Graphics for each race are copied from the official websites and the copyright owned by their creators.
– Most of the original options for race creation.
– Orion and the Guardian! No special techs or events for defeating it yet, but the system itself is well worth it. Beware though, it’s probably going to be a tough fight.

What’s missing:
– Darkloks, due to no spying ingame.
– BALANCE! It was never my intent to keep balanced costs for the traits. I mostly just copied the original costs with a few adjustments here and there.
– Proper separation of traits/civics and government types. What I have works for me but it’s not a solid solution.
– New traits and civics, and better use of Stellaris-specific features.
– Better solution for Uncreative and Creative. The current approach doesn’t really work well on game start until the game is first unpaused.
– Legendary Leaders!!
– Antaran attacks!
– Proper banners for each race.
– New ships models (probably not happening ever).

Known bugs:
– As mentioned, Uncreative and Creative don’t kick in until the game is first unpaused.

=====================================================================

Mod compatibility:

This mods overwrites the following default files:

– 00_species_archetypes
– 04_species_traits
– 05_species_traits_robotic
– All the prescripted_countries files

In addition to that, it also changes NUM_TECH_ALTERNATIVES to 1 (then changes to 3 it for non-uncreative races through an event).
