4.0 Update made changes to a lot of numbers, I can't list them all.
If something is still using old numbers, tell me. You're also free to comment on the balancing.

- Reworked the Ascension Path with the new Bio path; but refresh and clean the whole code
-- Synths can take Modularity, Nanotech, Virtuality, if you have the DLC
-- Machines can take another one from Modularity, Nanotech, Virtuality, if you have the DLC
-- Cybernetics / Psionics are forbidden as their trait are opposite but they can go Bio, and Bio can go both way
-- Just to note, I tried Cybernetics Hive to Synth but I would need to change the Authority to avoid problems and thats' a risky, so no path to Synth

- Anti-Piracy bonuses have been removed
- Genetic Selection Origin can be taken if you have the Biogenesis DLC
- 3 new Tradition Buildings (Cloning / Mutation / Purity)

- Behemot Fury:
-- Count in the Ascension Specialization, and taken into accounted as a Crisis
-- Count the Voidspawn Relic as a Guardian/Leviathan Relic
-- Colossal Warfare AP counts Behemot Class 1/2 as Titans, and 3/4 as Colossi

- The Deep Space Citadel Megastructure is counted for Megastructures count, and Mega-Engineering Perfection

- Globally replaced +1 Building Slot into +1 District

- My added Districts have been removed, as they're now mostly vanilla using zones
-- City Districts have been updated into zones
-- Special Districts (Archaeological & Astral Observation) are still districts but updated their limits par planet
--- The Astral Observation District doesn't watch/profit from Cosmic Storm by default, it's done by a special zone for it
