Cockroaches of Earth

Description
Simple prescripted empire mod to let you role play as the vanilla Stellaris Cockroach species from a tomb world Earth. Cockroaches have the irradiated trait (+30 years leader lifespan, 100% tomb world habitability), adaptive trait (+10% habitability), repugnant trait (-25/-10 opinion) and tomb world habitability. Works fine with the base game, no DLC needed.

Features:
  • Prescripted Cockroach Empire : "United Cockroaches of Earth"
  • Nuked Sol System Start* : System modeled after Earth's solar system, with a tomb-world Earth.
  • Unique anomalies: Adds two unique anomalies based on the unique anomalies for the prescripted humans in the base game.

Ingame Descriptor:
"Following a devasting nuclear war that wiped out humanity, the Cockroaches inherited the Earth. Thriving in the radiated environment, large mutated species of the human's household pest took to the light and formed rudimentary communities. Eventually the Cockroaches stumbled into a vault of pre-war human technology, rapidly advancing their society. Realizing their homeworld's history, they gained great respect and a reverence for those pre-war humans. Vowing to never repeat the mistakes of the past, the Cockroaches took to the stars bringing with them a message of peace."

Compatibility:
  • Compatible with 2.2.*
  • Accessible for all languages (although text is only in English*)
    • Spanish Translation made possible by@io
  • Should be compatible with any mod. No files were altered in the making of this mod.

Planned Fixes
  • Trying to figure out how to provide species name localisation for Spanish translation.

*Note: If you'd like a challenge, Nuked Sol System start can be used by any empire. It creates a tomb world Earth, but you don't get the tomb world habitability trait.

*Note from Author: This mod was intended to have a minimal impact on gameplay without creating or changing game assets, but has evolved over the course of patch updates to maintain features. Should be compatible with any mod, though if you find a bug (that's not a cockroach!) let me know. I welcome input on any future ideas or feedback on current ones.

***Special Thanks!***
  • Special thanks to @io for helping to provide a Spanish translation for this mod!

could you make a ruinous core start?

I hope someone updates this month, I do love the concept!

@Cylindryk, this mod will not work with 2.1.3 as i replaced the code related to tile blockers with deposits. I’m not sure if I have the exact 2.1.3 version left, but I may have an older copy I could look into reviving (after the holidays). What sort of features are you looking for in this mod? I used parts of it for other mods, like Nuked Earth in Tomb World Start Systems (which is still 2.1.3 I believe) and Irradiated in Traits Unlocked (which is 2.2.2).

Will this mod work with 2.1.3? If not, could you please release legacy version? Thank you! :)

@All, mod is updated with some custom deposits for 2.2 Nuked Earth!

@ShoneWarriorQc, aha, I see. I'll take a look at the code again, but I remember the way that tomb world planets are generated for some reason when you overlay the texture Earth would always be upsidedown. It doesn't happen though if Earth was originally a continental planet and converted to a tomb world and put back, only if Earth was some other planet class.

No I was saying that because i'm playing with the human trying to reconquer the earth form the cockroaches

@ShoneWarriorQc, I don't think I made it possible in this mod. But I know for the Origins Civics and Tomb World Start mod I made I did make this a possibility. Plus, it wouldn't be too good for the tomb world Cockroaches to live on a continental Earth (they'll have a hit to habitability!).

Can earth be turn continental again with the original earth skin?
