The Utopian Dream (2.2.7)

Requires Stellaris: Utopia DLC.

Several of the megastructures can be unlocked by other ascension perks, or all of them with Galactic Wonders, which now also boosts megastructure construction speed.

• Enigmatic Engineering unlocks the Mega Art Installation.
• Eternal Vigilance unlocks the Sentry Array.
• Galactic Force Projection unlocks the Strategic Co-ordination Center.
• Master Builders unlocks the Matter Decompressor.
• Shared Destiny unlocks the Interstellar Assembly.
• Technological Ascendancy unlocks the Science Nexus.

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

Shared Destiny did get changed but I forgot the screenie. It unlocks the Interstellar Assembly megastructure as well, if you have the MegaCorp DLC.

Eternal Vigilance now unlocks the Sentry Array.

Galactic Wonders now boosts megastructure build times as well as unlocking all the stuff. Thus making it still useful if you’ve already unlocked a megastructure, and you absolutely positively must build that megastructure now dammit, now.

Megastructures that require the MegaCorp DLC still require you to have the MegaCorp DLC.
Ascension Perks that require the MegaCorp DLC still require you to have the MegaCorp DLC.
Ascension Perks that require the Apocalypse DLC still require you to have the Apocalypse DLC.

Otherwise, you do not need the MegaCorp DLC to use this mod. You DO need the Utopia DLC.

This mod modifies the following vanilla files:
common/ascension_perks/00_ascension_perks.txt
common/megastructures/02_spy_orb.txt
common/megastructures/03_think_tank.txt
common/megastructures/06_matter_decompressor.txt
common/megastructures/07_strategic_coordination_center.txt
common/megastructures/08_mega_art_installation.txt
common/megastructures/09_interstellar_assembly.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.

Updated for v2.2.7. Will no longer work with earlier versions than 2.2.3.
Should be fine with an existing save-game.
Not ironpants/cheev compatible.

ESAP compatibility patch by Phoenixwarrior.
GAI compatibility patch by AlphaAsh.
