you gain all tech and a % of minerals and energy surplus based on your settings (0-25-50-75%)

A question. Why do you want multiple sectors instead of 1 huge one that can afford to fix up its own planets? Where you send colony ship, then hand it over and its 100 income a month handles all the buildings without you doing anything more. (Assuming you have borders that allow one to add all systems.) | ||

I had a large 28 planet sector that was pretty well developed and my income was good so I switched it from energy to research. Later I wanted to expand a bit more and make a new sector for that (now 10 planets) that are still set for energy. Otherwise I am in the same boat as you, why do I want many sectors? | ||

I am sure it will be tweaked, but it prevents them from rebelling or changing if your empire needs to take a new course. To divide up the sectors after the fact cost a lot of influence. So you might not have the influence to space germander if shit goes wrong. But it might be to easy to game that system at this point. But my buddy is having a real problem with some anti slave, pro personal achievement people he just took into his empire. They do not like his holy space collectivist and are refusing to pay taxes. | ||

Whenever I have problems with some ethnic group I just enslave them so that they know their place. the trick is to enslave the ones that are in the resistance movement and leave the loyalists free. I fully endorse this policy with every ethic group that gets uppity if you know what I mean. | ||

There are no slave rebellions on stellaris as far i know. Like synthethics for example won't raise against everyone with the AI. Eventually i switch all my pops for synths. | ||

I never had a problem with diverging populations due to that. Later on you get several -ethic drift options and it gets even easier to manage a large sector. I also build all colony ships using my starting ethics so the drift isn't too bad. I think I once got a drift I had to use influence on, so didn't know that sectors could even be a problem even at 100 planets. Only downside I see with mass purging is cost of new colonies, not possible to colonise type opposite your starting one, or whatever the red colonise tag is even with full tech researched. Oh and if you care about the AI nations a large - modifier. | ||

i especially love the expansion options you have early, you can grow your normal people or you can try to attract everyone in the galaxy to your planets or you can send robots or you can help non space faring civs and let them join you or you enslave them or you enslave your neighbours or you go feudalism in space and get some vassals or you make your own species from primitive live and make them fight for you or you change yourself to fit on more planets or you change the planets themselves. Its pretty fun.... Just the AI in general has issues, including the AI that is supposed to manage parts of your own empire. I hope they can make it better, it must have been quite a change going from EU where the challenge comes from unfair starting conditions to this game where you start relatively the same. right now im sure you can get 50-100 really fun hours out of it, but to get to EU levels it needs more stuff and fixes. | ||

sectors build their planetary buildings according to the focus you give them, with multiple sectors you can diversify your output and have a more well rounded empire. | ||

Sounded to me like they devoured stuff pretty regularly and were hell bent on taking over the whole galaxy.. Don't see why they would take their time when under control of the overmind, its hardly as if they do anything leisurely (I will admit my info is only from the original SC manual as a kid and playing the games) | ||

But all these recent comments make it sound so awesome. Its not for everyone in my opinion. I think the game makes the most fun if you kinda do your own "story" like wanting to be genocidal space nazis or making a star trek federation or something like that. Thats what is the most fun part at least for me. If you play it just to win it feels a bit flat to me. I am really looking forward for (deep) warhammer/starwars/starcraft etc. mods, i think the game will be more fun with that. | ||

Basically one of my science ships came across an anomaly and found the remnants of a two-billion year old empire called the first league, then it told me to research six more anomalies that I'd find about the first league. However, I've never found any more and I've scoured the area where I found the first one. Any ideas what's up? The planets are really spread out. Can be on other side of the galaxy. Mine bugged out after doing all 6 places. The final one doesn't work at all. | ||

I should have a lot of them around from conquered empires but the only option to find them is to manually check every single planet. I find the mining/research stations fairly easy. On the galaxy map you can just shift-queue "build mining/research station" on all the systems where you want them and then forget about the constructor until he's done. You can also queue "survey system", though anomalies and potential enemies are a bit disruptive for that, so some automated survey which also does all the anomalies and debris would be amazing. Or at least a setting in the options to automatically research all anomalies. Combat is currently my biggest gripe. If you install one very long range weapon, ships will stay at that range even if they have much more firepower at closer range. For example installing a single Lance and a few medium mass drivers on a battleship will make it only use the lancer while the mass drivers idle until enemies close in. That means you have to make sure your designs are using the same range weapons for all slots, which limits your options. Weapons also need a bit of a re-balance since Lances are a bit too strong and fighters are completely useless since they just circle around your ship unless your ship has short range weapons. I made the mistake of using a Lance + Bomber layout and the Bombers never did anything since they had a much shorter range than Lances and so my Battleships died, because they only used half the firepower. | ||

-I declared war to one of my neighbor when I realized I finally had a better fleet than his. -In my war goal, I asked for 2 of his planets (half of his empire). -Just few days after (I don't even have the time to move my fleet to his first star), he gives away exactly the 2 planets I asked for to a 3rd party he was already in war with (I didn't see that). -I continue the war since the war progression at the bottom right of the screen is still 0%, and since I don't know how a war ends I just go the 2 others planets he still owns. -I destroy his remaining fleet, and capture his 2 planets with my army, meaning he controls no planet at all -War progression is at 100% and here is what I have: I won the war, control his planets, and I can't ask for anything at all except a White Peace which means I won't be able to attack him for the next 10 years... How is that fair? Why am i able to receive _only_ what were my goals at the moment of the declaration? If I realize later in a war that I can get a lot more, why is it not possible to change? I don't know if I'm missing something, but this feels totally wrong. | ||

I don't know if I'm missing something, but this feels totally wrong. It gets worse when your fighting big nations or federations who holds dozens and dozens of worlds and your still limited to 2-4 cede planets or a single vassalization for a war. Anything related to diplomacy really is the weakest part of the game imo. Calling my first game finished. Control half the galaxy, almost all tech researched. kicked the unbidden and a fallen empire but to conquer the other half of the map is going to take ages and nothing like a tech victory to avoid it. played a large galaxy (800 stars) and it just takes to long. Mostly I think its the invasion mechanic which, while fine, takes a good while to bomb off fortifications and then invade compared to other games where you often have the option to quickly destroy a colony from orbit, allowed for much swifter endgame conquests when planets are no longer a concern. Im the Rutharian Hive. the Spyran Principary (right,blue) Combined Vissan Colonies (left brown) and everything in between are my vassals. Took some 40 hours but I didn't play on fastest. | ||
