Oh, for those of you that do enable this mod and have plush portrait species appear in your games, do you use my name lists, too (Plush_Bearverian, etc.)? When I do my next update, if I take the time to add a whole bunch of name lists that may not have plush species portraits but do have matching Stellaris portraits, like the butterfly for example, would y'all be interested in using them? It is a tremendous amount of creative and data entry work to develop these pun-ny but memorable names. It's only worth it to me to add extra ones to the mod if you, the players outside of me, are interested, though. Thanks all!

I appreciate you're wanting it to work that way. However, I have wanted my plush species to take advantage of the benefits of the various types as opposed to having them all be the same with some new feature that I would need to balance within the game. I wanted to keep this mod as purely window dressing and not affect game rules. I'll update this mod again to add and adjust it for new inferno species options when that comes out. For now, it works fine with 4.*, even though I am still very unhappy with Stellaris over this new economy and lousy performance (that I didn't experience before 4).

i play a game with this mod now and, I don't like it that much because like half of the species in the galaxy are plush for some reason :D I would have liked it much more if all the plushies would be their own species type and not one plush for every species type

nice :3 I bet it would look hillarious when they have fitting planets :D

I haven't done backgrounds for all the races, but I can look into it. I'm not much of an artist outside of doing the geometric logos, but I can picture most of their cities/worlds. I'll give it a whirl when I have some free time... and patience!

can you make a fitting planet mod for the plushies like this one, but actually updated? https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1534135541

Well, I suppose he is xeno scum or something. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks! Watch out for ET! When he phones home, he returns with an armada. ;-) ...still licking my wounds from my last encounter.

I love it.

Thank you for your interest. :)

No, I drew the Hexapod Union's emblem myself based upon the emblems I created for them in Civ4.

is the hexagon union's flag from super hexagon?
idk why but it looks like a game of super hexagon.

Updated to be compatible with the anniversary update.
