Better Empire Names: Revengeance – For 3.11!
An update for Galle’s ‘Better Empire Names Reborn‘!
In your time playing Stellaris, have you ever thought:
- "Are all of my neighbours garbage at naming things?"
- "Who would ever name their holy order or company after their species?"
- "Man, why is everyone in this galaxy an ethnonationalist?!"
If yes, then this is the mod for you!
A whole sweep of new randomly generated names to spice up your federation-building, megastructure constructing, or omnicidal campaigns!
The vast majority of mods should work just fine with this.
The only vanilla file altered by this mod is ‘00_empire_names‘, which is not usually something modders would touch.
An important caveat must be made for mods that add new governments, which are the likeliest suspects (besides other mods that are about adding new random names – all four of them) to also mess with that file.
Otherwise, slap it on and it’ll probably work.
This mod includes some inbuilt integration with others, inasmuch as it accounts for added ethics/governments/origins. At present, the only mod with any added formats is Fatherlands: Colonial Empires – Hegiran states have some special name formats. Frontiers technically have special name formats as well, but due to being renamed by event in that mod, these will not currently appear normally.
This mod does alter the checksum, and, therefore, is not achievement compatible.
I’ll be blunt: it’s unlikely I’ll keep regularly updating this mod.
Still, barring the developers deciding to change how the random empire name code works again, this mod should remain relatively functional. Any new empire types or governments added by future updates will not be covered by it, however, and will probably just spit out a blank name.
An update in those cases should be simple enough – I encourage and give full permission for anyone more inclined at the time to do so.
