RegeneX
700 Year Life Expansion: Humanely Sourced From The Finest Ingredients In The Galaxy – Abrasax Industries
RegeneX [jupiter-ascending.fandom.com] a strategic resource of immense value to your empire. Learn to harness it’s power and you can use this resource to rejuvenate your leaders granting them virtual immortality. However; these benefits do not come for free and the process to acquire enough RegeneX to sustain your ambitions can be troublesome.
I’ve had the idea to make a mod based on this movie for some time and with the recent release of First Contact and Galactic Paragons I finally feel that the time is right. The intent of this mod is to expand the options for improving leader lifespan particularly for non gestalt empires and to explore the thematic ideas introduced in the film. I intend to maintain a balance that is close as possible to vanilla.
The aforementioned strategic resource known as RegeneX can provide a powerful boon to any empire who can learn to harness it. Regenex has powerful rejuvenating properties. Taking a bath in this substance is known to reduce ones biological age.
Obtaining sufficient quantities of RegeneX is tricky and not without a compromise to an empires other objectives. The traditional and most common method for producing RegeneX is to infiltrate and subsequently harvest the populations of a pre-ftl empire. Alternatively, undesirables can be processed directly into RegeneX via purge; however, this process is not as efficient. There are rumors of an ancient weapon capable of harvesting entire world in an instant. The most devout empires commonly sacrifice their own population for access to this precious resource. It is theorized that with enough investment into genetic research it may be possible to create a synthetic variant of RegeneX.
All Features in this mod require unlocking a tier 3 genetic technology. It will only appear as an option if you have some means of producing RegeneX See: Documentation
Mod is made with compatibility in mind. No major overrides. There is an empire edict to view the RegeneX stockpile in case the UI is not working due to conflicting mods. Build in support for Gigas. Should work on new saves as well.
Core functionality shown in the movie is implemented. I’m releasing now to get some feedback but I would like to expand the mod over time. First thing to add is some interaction in the galactic community and a way to distribute RegeneX to the population of a planet for a boon. If you have any suggestions please let me know.
I am still learning many things relating to modding. If you encounter any issues please let me know so I can fix them. Additionally any feedback relating to the mod would be much appreciated. Especially, artwork and localisation may not be excellent. If you are interested in making a contribution or would like more personal support please feel free to contact me at the discord below.
