Is there any way to mod the pop auto-migrate system to also include robots? All my planets end up having like 10 unemployed robots, so I manually move them off the planet. But that makes the ratio of organic to synthetic pops lower, so my dedicated mining planets end up only having a tiny percentage of mine-bots because the meat pop keep breeding and taking all the jobs seemingly pushing the robots out of work, even though the robots have better mining bonuses. I wish there was a way to play an empire that just had a small ruling elite of bio-pops but all worker class jobs were open only to robots.

One of the beta patches said that it allows enslaved synths to migrate if there's a slave processing facility on the planet. Does this mean I'm out of luck if I'm not an authoritarian/xenophobe?

But I’ve also *mostly* stopped micro-ing my pops and it hasn’t mattered, so I think the real lesson here is that all aliens want to live in your empire and you should let them.

I know this might be too much to ask or just expected micro, but auto-migrating my void dweller pops off to a relic world, when there are non-habbers who would have a much better time, is a bit annoying. Especially when I have both kinds unemployed, after some careful microing, and it shoves the regulars to a habitat. Just send them right! I think automigration takes habitability into account, but since void dwellers are magically given a negative trait after moving, maybe it misses out on that. I never saw any move to worlds with regular habitability at least.

If it takes habitability it's either new in a recent beta or it's not a strong block, as I had a lot of 20% hab dudes moving to my capital for job during the first beta. Although void dwellers habitability really needs to be accounted for too.

For its upkeep cost I really wish the Transit Hub did something more than just increase the chance of a pop migrating. Like... a transit hub sounds like something that would improve commerce or something, too.

I'm not sure it's habitability itself determining it, it could be something as simple as "prefer migrating to a planet which has the same species already", but when I didn't have void dwellers but regular dudes, my planets of different biomes seemed to stay filled with appropriate species, as long as both my growing and my breeding planets had all types in them.

Nope. The nihilistic is apparently referring to the acquired pops, as they simply do not give a poo poo about being dragged violently across the galaxy and put to work in the mines, as long as they aren't slaves and generally the same political views as their abductors.

A Carly Rae Jihad posted:Nope! Honestly, my original plan was to use this with Synth ascension and set every other species to assimilate. Ultimately I ended up installing a mod that loosened restrictions on the ascension paths so I could do gene modded psychic cyborgs, but yeah the original plan was to just get to a comfortable size, ascend, and periodically raid my neighbors for pops to stuff into robots.  Now I just need to figure out a way to tell my assistant to tell all the empires that want to leech research points from me that I'm not available at the moment. When it wasn't full of NA alerts, it was requests for NAPs, Federation joins, Research Agreements... literal constant stream of "Incoming message..." edit:

I'm 2279 and I have already activated two Edicts, claimed all the space that I want to take from my neighbors, and I'm not sure what to do with it... You need influence for megastructures, including habitats and gateways. Are there any additional habs or gates you could build? Is there a big megastructure you want to start? If you have an Ascension Perk to spare, there are a couple perks that are Influence dumps. Arcology Project (to make Ecumenopolis planets) is very strong. If you don't have the MegaCorps DLC or you're playing a gestalt, then Mastery of Nature is mediocre but does let you get value from excess Influence. Are your Edicts all applying to your current playstyle? Are you at your Edict cap? (You can also go over your Edict cap if you have really excessive Administrative Capacity.) There are also a few old-style timed Edicts that you can unlock from events. If you have any of those, might as well use them. Check your government type. If you're on Oligarchy, then you might want to switch, since additional Influence is its main benefit (assuming you don't have any civics that rely on it.) Likewise, check your civics to make sure they're all currently relevant to your playstyle. There might be something you have that's less useful than a generically-good civic like Functional Architecture, Meritocracy, Aristocratic Elite, Police State, or Memorialists. Do you have any factions you care about? Boosting or suppressing factions both come with a monthly Influence cost. Alternately, you can embrace a faction if you want to change up your civ's Ethics. Do you have Federations or Nemesis? Proposing laws on the Galactic Senate is an option. Adding new sanctions when someone you dislike is in violation of Galactic Law is a generically good choice. You can always just make more claims. The only disadvantage to them is that they annoy whoever's space you're claiming. You can also strengthen your claims, if an ally has competing claims.

It just gets gloriously excessive by about 2300 as Trade Guy. This ecu isn't even focused on making trade, just a capital casually ending up with 1000+ trade as a byproduct. I just dump all the slaves I buy into these places. Have one that is just forges besides the cap. Been wandering around subjugating neighbors to get them into my federation one way or the other for the last ~40 years so I can try to sink my influence, still end up capped a lot of the time. Have 28 branch offices netting ~2k trade and +140%ish diplomatic weight by way of corporate embassies.  Unity is high enough to sustain 5 ascension edicts or so without repeatables to boost duration. Finished unity tree at a rate comparable to a spiritualist.  I got brain slug event so I did bio ascension so that I could stick those on my researchers stacked with erudite. If I could go back I would go fanatic xenophile, with egalitarian instead of materialist so I could run utopian abundance. I sell more than my pop count in consumer goods each month so I could easily run abundance, and if you run it then your pops generate yet more trade passively. The ball is rough to get rolling but the snowball is real after you federate. Normally I feel weaker as a good guy archetype but this actually worked well enough that I didn't feel like I was weakening myself by not having some flavor of bad guy. Everyone is friends with you, or else, and your economy is so enormous along with a strong tech game that by mid-late the advantage is significant enough to easily overcome the purifier/militarist boosts.

QuarkJets posted:Usually I'm enslaving any pops that I "acquire" though Yeah I mean that's probably the default, and then they're a bit miffed, but only about the "being a slave" part, not the kidnapping. I think it might make sense to have a debuff of sorts, but there aren't really any debuffs that are applied to individual pops, right? Only to planets or by manipulating ethics.
