📋 About This Mod

This is a simple mod that makes sensors fail at seeing into or out of more systems than just nebulae, space storms, and sealed systems / the L-Cluster. It also adds sensor jamming and a (very late game) way to breach it. As of 3. 13, it also reduces sensor range slightly. This is only terribly relevant at the beginning, but it does make it harder to see 'around' systems. Neutron Stars Pulsars Black Holes Wormholes It also provides sensor tech to overcome each of these, including sealed systems/the L-Cluster and nebulae. The end result is quite interesting. Parts of the galaxy are hidden because there is a black hole or something in the way, and you don't automatically get to sense everything within several systems on the other side of a wormhole. It also fills out Physics tech a fair bit, which was previously a bit sparse. And gives an option - albiet late game - for seeing into nebulae besides building the spy orb. This mod modifies a specific game rule, as well as the sentry array/spy orb. Anything that doesn't modify those will be compatible. Modifying the sensor game rule is pretty rare, and clobbering someone's sentry array edit isn't the end of the world. Version 1. 4: Obsoleted the neutron star sensor tech, now it is a part of tier 4 sensors. The sentry array no longer requires all tech to be researched up front, so you can build up to it. Version 1. 5: Added a flag, ariphaos_sensors_installed, that allows other mods to sense our presence. My Main Stellaris Mods =================== These are intended to be balanced, suitable for multiplayer, etc. Unofficial Patch fixing hundreds of bugs in vanilla Stellaris. Yet Another Galaxy Enhancement Mod - Adds new galaxy sizes, star names to fit, and tweaks galaxy generation slightly. Bypass Adjustments - Some small tweaks to wormholes (you won't pull the lever and piss off a Fallen Empire any more). Major overhaul for Gateways, making them feel a lot more strategic in the endgame by making them require black holes. Also b
