Mod has been updated to the newest patch 4.1. Thanks all for your patience!

@Captain Cygni: Thanks for the heads up! It seems like it might be a bit involved (well, relatively, since I don't really mod Stellaris much these days outside maintaining these mods lol), but I've made a note to look into that and see what I can do when I have the time and am in the mood.

*extremely* low priority bug report: Ever since the introduction of empire timelines, empires made with these don't have have the origin picture displayed at the beginning of the timeline.

There are so many other things to focus on other than this, but I thought I'd at least mention it x)

@Krahe I can tone it down, yeah. Thanks for the suggestion!

Not sure if peacekeepers from War to End All Wars all that balanced. You get 1 per 25 pops and at start of game I've got 152, which grant some 3 stability and 7 happiness. Sure, it's a capital world, but still kind of a lot, especially when there'll be much more pops

@Dr. Quackers M.D. Doesn't sound familiar to me so that's probably another mod

does this add Convened by Providence

@Lazy Author: Thanks for heads up! Made a note to look into that when I get around to the next update.

Bug report, the merchant jobs added by the Silk road origin modifier aren't being filled by pops

Cool, thanks for making a great mod! Archaeology and Espionage are my favorite parts of Stellaris

@darthsawyer I've never been quite happy with the Antediluvian Knowledge origin's bonuses, but yeah I can think about some potential buff ideas. As for an espionage themed origin, not a bad idea. Maybe whenever I'm in the mood to mod a bit of Stellaris I can figure something out.

Any year 2200 bonus to Codebreaking is *huge*.

There aren't really any Espionage themed origins around, would you mind adding an origin that gives the Quantum Hacking technology and reduces Operation Difficulty by 2?

I think Antediluvian Knowledge needs a buff, 5 minor artifacts isn't really a useful amount. Most of the other origins that get a technology have some other buff alongside it. Please add a archaeology themed buff. +1 Archaeology skill and 100 minor artifacts would be a reasonable buff. Starting with a random Archaeological site in your starting system is another option, or discovering a random Archaeological site every 10 years. Great mod, thanks for making it!

@alankraskow No prob!

@cybrxkhan omg, you absolutely right, I must've had few tabs open at the same time or something. It's from a different mod, sorry bout that.

@alankraskow I don't think I add anything related to that? AP sounds like the prefix of some other mod or a vanilla thing?

AP_twin_habitable initializer is missing localisation.

@Peter34 Thanks for the heads up. Will make a note to fix those. Didn't realize they changed how Gene Clinic tech works. Guess I'll give them whatever they realized tech they replaced as the starter genetic/bio tech.

Slow Evolution also gives the Gene Clinic Tech, even though that's now quite meaningless in the year 2200 as it requires Exotic Gas to run.

This mod hasn't been properly updated to v4.0 at all, which is unfortunate.

The Silk Road origin does not work. It says it adds 100 Merchant Jobs via the Planet Modifier, but while the Jobs exist, Pops somehow don't enter them. And there's nothing weird about my Pop, Servile, Nerve-Stapled or anything like that.

@Svijj No problem, glad that helped!

@cybrxkhan It works! Thank you very much and sorry for the time I took. Cheers!

@Svijj Okay I have given access to the files with anyone with that link below, I think that should work, hopefully.

@Svijj Good idea with Google Drive! See if this link works: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1taFVaWP_-WU_D9qJWH3vCcLZunE44bEp/view?usp=sharing

If that doesn't work for whatever reason, feel free to send me a message on discord, my username is also cybrxkhan and/or my discord server for my mods is linked above too.

@cybrxkhan Well shucks, still nothing - the same error 400

Do you have a channel on the Stellaris Modding Den? Maybe you can send the files through there. Alternatively: perhaps Google Drive won't have this issue

@Svijj Huh, weird that it disabled itself.

Try this link: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/i5n4cc9gz14m2k4xsfyht/BOO-Oct-2024.zip?rlkey=5bd5vu47oop71qxtj8a6vvcye&st=sg2fo5gm&dl=0

@cybrxkhan Oop, the link doesn't work, Error 400

@Svijj Ok this is the version from late last year, I think it should work for 3.14: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/i5n4cc9gz14m2k4xsfyht/BOO-Oct-2024.zip?rlkey=5bd5vu47oop71qxtj8a6vvcye&st=38gkkj8v&dl=0

@cybrxkhan Yep, 3.14 is the most recent version right before 4.0.

@Svijj I don't think I have the old version of the mod, but I can check. What version of the game was 3.14? Is that the most recent version before 4.0? Not keeping up with the game as much these days so I don't remember lol.

Once again, thank you for updating this mod for so long, It's a permanent stay on my modlists

I also wanted to ask: is there a way I can obtain the legacy 3.14 version of the mod? Any form is fine - be it an unlisted workshop item or the raw files of the version

@Silver Knight: You're welcome!

Thanks for updating

I'm happy to help as I can, big fan of this mod! If I catch anything else I'll let you know.

@topher.s.g: I've updated the mod with fixes to account for the issues you mentioned. Thank you very much for your help!

@topher.s.g Good catch, seems like I missed a few things in my update. I'll see if I can tweak those. Thanks!

@ommissar BS: Thanks!

I played vanilla and I could not believe that it had so few origins. This mod is so great I had assumed most of these shipped with the base game.

Just checking - I note that the in-game descriptions still say stuff like "start with 2 extra pops" - is it just a case where the text needs to be updated and you're actually giving 200 to match the new pop scale, or is it really giving 2?

Also I note another description saying the origin gives extra industrial districts, which do not exist in 4.0.

S'all good. I appreciate the reply none the less mate. Cheers :)

@Cap Buster Boogie: Ah I gotcha, yeah maybe Steam was being wonky again :[

Nah man, I had like 3 posts here. One of them replying to someone explaining what this mod did and to thank him.

Man, steam is a pain in the ass sometimes.

@Cap Buster Boogie If there was any changes I don't know who would've done that, and/or steam workshop messed up writing your post or you accidentally deleted some language

Did someone edit my post or something? Because I had typed more than that.

@Cap Buster Boogie I don't really know what that mod does or how the two mods would affect each other, so someone will have to make a compatch if one's needed, as all my mod does for destroyers is that origin gets you the tech for destroyers at game start.

When using this mod with ESC NEXT Component progression, the "Global War" origin breaks the ESC Mod and prevents destroyers from having fission reactors.

ahh thx =w=

@The Big Blue Box: Thanks for the heads up. I wonder if it has to do anything with giving a tradition at game start. Does this happen with any other origins added by my mod or just that one? And does it happen when you run only my mod?

@Link3000XD: Nothing I can think off the top of my head, though do of course make sure to check if any other mods say anything about placement of origin mods.

any load order to keep in mind?

It seems that with "Trekkers to the Stars" not only do factions spawn right away, but factions give science instead of Unity. Actually it seems other modded origins are spawning factions immediately rather than after 10 years.

Mod has been updated to 4.0. This was a basic quick update so I didn't really have time to look into whether the origins are balanced with the new changes to pops and the economy; while I don't really care about things being too balanced, let me know if there is anything too egregious or doesn't fit with the new gameplay well. Thanks all for your patience!
