Description:
Stellaris – L-Gate Access Vote for SP & MP Mod

Did you ever play a Stellaris MP game with your friends, only for one of them to ruin the game, either intentionally or accidentally, by opening the L-Gates way before you and the others were ready to face the Gray Tempest? Well, so have I. This mod introduces an event chain, for up to 20 players, where players need to vote on whether or not they want to open the L-Gates when someone tries to open them. If they fail to reach a majority, the gates will stay locked and in 10 years, another vote will commence.

This vote can also be used to stop the AI, in singleplayer or in multiplayer, from opening the cluster, until the player(s) is/are ready to open the L-Cluster.

Compatibility
  • Not Achievement/Ironman Compatible
  • Can conflict with mods that has changes to the L-Gates/Distant Stars Story Pack

Guide to the L-Gate Vote

Play as you would normally, by gathering sufficient insights in order to unlock the special L-Gate Activation technology. When this research is completed, an event chain will trigger where all non-AI players can vote on whether or not they want the player to open the L-Gates. If a majority is formed, every player gets a special scientist with the L-Gate Lockdown Piercer trait, which is needed for the special project to open the L-Gates.

Even though it should speak for itself, this is how a majority is formed:

The number of total people can easily be increased on request, but since I think that nobody would ever play with more than 20 people in one game, I have chosen this number to minimize the huge lap of coding needed for one event. But if you are planning on playing with more people, and would like this number to be increased, let me know!

Feel free to use the mod for a modpack, but do please let me know and post credit to this page. Thanks in advance!

I hope you enjoy and if you have some suggestions, be sure to let me know!
