Skittish Scientists
Wonder no more!
This mod:
- Immediately pauses the game and puts up a warning
- Clears the order queue for the science ship
- Puts the science ship to Evasive stance, regardless of previous preference
The ship will then automatically do an evasive jump to a nearby system.
The mod only activates when science ships jump into a star system with hostiles. It does not do anything if, for example, hostile fleets enter a system your science ship is already in.
Actually, that might be the first thing I add – putting the science ship in Evasive stance if that happens, just in case.
Hint: for vanilla Stellaris 1.3, they do actually do evasive jumps if set to auto-explore, so this mod won’t actually improve the chances that any of them survive.
What it will do, however, is give you a nice popup with a location button on it, and pause the game so you can check and see what’s going on.
And peace of mind.
