Improved Assimilation
By default, if you have Assimilation policy selected the game does a random roll at beginning of each year, and then the following happens:
– With a chance of 50%, 1 random pop in your empire is assimilated
– With a chance of 30%, 2 random pops are assimilated
– With a chance of 20%, 4 random pops are assimilated
While this is fine for smaller empires, this becomes a nightmare for a mid/late game hives and machine empires. 100 pops would take 25-100 years to assimilate, AFTER you conquered them. Thats 100 years of unrest, revolts and no resources. No thanks.
My mod drastically increases the speed at which the filthy organics get their brains replaced with CPUs (or converted into the gestalt hive mind):
– With a chance of 50%, 5 random pops are converted
– With a chance of 30%, 10 random pops are converted
– With a chance of 20%, 15 random pops are converted
This mod OVERWRITES stellaris/events/on_action_events.txt – so it will not be compatible with other mods that modify this file. You can make it compatible by opening the other mods’ txt file, and replacing entire "Assimilate pops" part with one from my txt.
