Idyllic Bloom Rework 3.8.4
The main goal of this mod is to rework idyllic bloom into something permanent, currently in vanilla, the civic is basically a cheaper and faster way of terraforming the planet into a gaia world. This mod adds new jobs to Gaia Seeders which provide growth bonuses instead of the building itself. The third phase of Gaia Seeders now terraforms the planet into a gaia world, and the 4th and final stage now provides large bonuses to the planet it is on. The council position now also provides a +5% build speed per level, in addition to its vanilla -5% reduction in cost and upkeep. In addition to this, I’ve removed the limit of the civic on plantoids and fungoids, all species types (bar machine) can use it now.
Two new jobs with hivemind alternatives:
Idyllic Overseers, These rulers provide a 5% resource output bonus, a 10% crime reduction and 10% happiness (+5 stability for hiveminds).
Idyllic Caretakers, these specialist jobs provide a 5% organic growth and assembly speed each.
Gaia Seeder building changes:
Phase 1 provides 10% habitability and one Idyllic Caretaker (5% total growth and assembly).
Phase 2 provides 20% habitability and two Idyllic Caretakers (10% total growth and assembly).
Phase 3 terraforms the planet into a gaia world and provides three Idyllic Caretakers (15% growth and assembly).
Phase 4 provides one Idyllic Overseers and four Idyllic Caretakers (5% resource bonus, -10% crime, 10% happiness/+5 stability and 20% growth and assembly).
On gaia worlds, phase 1 and 2 can be skipped and phase 3 can be built directly. If you have a phase 1 or 2 Gaia Seeder on a planet which is terraformed by any means into a gaia world, it will be replaced by a phase 3 Gaia Seeder for no cost.
The Holding version of the Gaia Seeder has also been changed, it is no longer removed after the planet has been terraformed and provides two two 5% growth and assembly speed jobs (10% total).
This is my first proper mod so any and all feedback is welcome! Hopefully my playtesting has ironed out most of the bugs but I’m sure I’ll have missed some, please send any you run into to me and i’ll try sort it out.
