Interstellar Incorporated - A Civilian Space Odyssey v0.3.2 alpha

Welcome to Interstellar Incorporated - A Civilian Space Odyssey. This mod is all about bringing Stellaris more to life, mostly through the inclusion of civilian and corporate fleets, but in a way that actually drives your empire's economy - nothing about this mod is purely visual, it is all functional.

Currently they will increase trade value upon arrival, but this is a very early implementation, to be expanded in the future. Minor corporations, whose spawning is determined by your "Corporate Authority" policy level. These are also in a very early stage of implementation, currently they can own mining stations, but don't really provide any benefit or drawback for when they do s
