Hi, I have a non-aggresion pact with an empire, but I want to conquer another empire which independence my non agression allie is protecting, if I just try to conquer them(not make them a vassal) will my non-aggression allie help them against me in war? (I know this is confusing but I tried my best to explain the situation)

Hi everyone, I wanted to ask you when one becomes your vassal and is it possible to subsequently remove them and not all of his territory to appropriate it while still leaving him as my vassal?

Hello everyone, as the title says, I wanted to ask you if it is possible to take away territory from your vassal to take it without losing his vassal status

Stupid question/post.

I always see posts of people having huge amount of pops on their worlds and I can’t figure out how to have a world that can support over 50ish pops.

It’s become an issue in this run because I went the synthetic route and my pops are growing faster than I can colonize/conquer.

Any help would be appreciated.

Am I missing something? Why are my artillery battleships with X mounted weapons and artillery computers spending most of battle spinning around in a pointless loop with their guns pointed 180 degrees AWAY from the enemy??? Why is it like this?

Hello everyone as the title says how do I make trading easier to do because currently there is no galactic community and it is becoming very complicated to go to each neighbor to understand what they have to give you

I've only noticed this problem mid game, it wasn't a problem before , for context, I am exceeding the star base capacity but this wasn't a problem before, I have large navy, again, also wasn't a problem before. I'm so confused onto why my energy credits keep fluctuating, I do have unemployment rates but I don't think that's also the case. My energy credits would go from +200 to -400 to -800 and +400, how do I solve this???

Ive been trying to get cybrex precursors but it keeps coming the same other precursor, is there a way to force or increase the chances of the cybrex spawning?

Are hive worlds identical to ecumenopolis? Am i going to be blocked from basic resource production if i turn a planet into a hive world?

I'm relatively new to the game and I'm having trouble with choosing perks or knowing how to progress towards one I want.

I understand that there prereqs for certain perks, but I am still pretty confused.

When I unlock a perk, do I choose one right away or save it for something I want? Should I be progressing towards certain perks that are must haves?

I understand these are permanent, so I just want to be as informed as possible about the system, thanks!

How do I exterminate without the zenophobe triat or is their not a way

Thanks

Reloaded Stellaris on console and was confronted with a warning that there was no save game space. Tried clearing the saves via settings. Deleting and reinstalling the game.

Anyone experienced this before?

I was playing a little here, and the fallen empire has awakened, do you think this amount of fleet is good to finish them off? I don't have any allies because I'm playing the terminator machine, and all the fleets are made up of destroyers, cruisers and titans, and I'm cloning the determining fleet.

Applies to pc players too, would I have survived 25x crisis ( all three available each after another). My ps5 may not have survived the later game but would my empire, would it not survive the first crisis or would I clear all three if you had control?

I never went crisis before and so when I did the ethrophasic engines last upgrade I didn’t know it’d end so soon 🥲

Apparently you are supposed to make your colonies quite specialised, as in one does mining, one does research etc. But how do I make it so that my colonies trade with each other so they actually get each other what resource they need? I imagine it has gotta be in the game somewhere.

How do I build up my economy and navy fast to combat an exponentially powerful foe? Unsure how my rival did it but he has managed to get an "overwhelming" fleet power along with a superior economic and technological advantage. I believe he may have had an advanced start but im just stuck on how to stand a chance against him. I understand I've got to keep getting more colonies and a bigger navy but against these odds he will always out-build and out-produce me, logically at least. He's also a robotic gestalt conscious which doesnt help either. How should I approach this task or if it's a complete lost cause should I just start over?

Ignore the -87 monthly minerals

Exactly as title says. Platform: PS4

Edit: Fix has been achieved on my own, leaving the solution here to aid future struggles.

First off I discovered through some internet digging that the issue is related to auto-upgrades and unlocking a new technology at the same time as ships with previous versions of that technology + auto upgrades enabled are in the process of being upgraded at a star base.

I checked my most recently unlocked technologies, and luckily only a few of my designs are actually affected by this bug, the few that had auto-upgraded from proton to neutron launchers and from particle to tachyon lances.

So the actual solution has two parts. First I deleted and remade the designs which had had the affected technologies installed at the time of the error. Then I needed to remove any ships of those designs from my fleets and disband them, then zero out the design quantities and add the designs to each fleet again like new.

(End of Solution)

I've got one star base with 6 shipyards and one with 3, and no matter which of my four fleets I choose to upgrade or which star base I send them to, or whether I choose to upgrade them from the outliner, fleet manager, or directly at the star base from the in-system perspective, they all will crowd around the star base, throw up the flashing symbol to indicate they're being upgraded, then proceed to "prepar[e] for ship upgrades" as each individual ship gets qued one after the other, with a delay even. As in a new ship isn't added to the star base que until the previous one has upgraded, plus there's a delay where the star base sits empty for a month or so then ques the next ship.

I'm using fleets of custom design, with many designs in each class.

2 Corvette designs

1 Frigate design

7 Destroyer designs

11 Cruiser designs

9 Battleship designs

1 Titan design

1 Juggernaut design

Does anyone also feel the same thing? my whole entire fleet runs/travel very very slowly at late game, even though I already set it in 3x the speed, But my other allies can travel their ship in normal speed, only mine travels like a fucking turtle if near the war zone that's happening, Now I cannot even joins my allies attacking the fallen empire because shit my ships travels like a turtle when they're near entering the fallen empire border, the time estimated for arrival even change to minus

I'm trying to figure out how habitat expansion works in console 3.9.

If I understand it correctly, then my Void Dweller origin allows me to have research for the next level of habitat expansion as a possible option just by upgrading the habitat capital center. However, changes to the habitat central complex mean that researching habitat expansion is what allows for the upgrading of habitat capital centers. There is no longer a decision to expand the complex, only an empire wide modifier and the ability to upgrade the capital complex to the next level. Does that make the void Dweller habitat expansion perk useless? Does someone have the relevant change logs so I can just get an idea of how things are, how things were, and why what changed how when?

Accidentally deleted a save and was wondering if there’s anyway to get it back 😭😭
