📋 About This Mod

For Stellaris 4.*.* Adds a fully working Animated Death Star (Read everything and Notes before subscribing) @Everyone: Previously I posted an info about a stellaris animation loop issue here. Today, I finally found the culprit, Stellaris Fleet Stance, This is why Vanilla Colossus are always set to `passive fleetstance` because the Aggressive and Evasive fleet stance is hardcodedly attach to always play animation similar on using a jumpdrive playing the "open/working_loop" animation. This Death Star is no exemption to it, some of you will notice that the DS will randomly look below without firing/cracking anything, this happens when you set the fleet stance to aggressive. My current advise for all USER of this mod and to prevent this vanilla issue is: SET FLEET STANCE TO PASSIVE . not evasive, not aggressive. (Clicking them will play the animation for you to see, aggressive is always use on or after battle and this is hardcoded.) Features: -Animated Death Star -Fake 8 beam laser effect (just like the movies!) -Custom Planet Cracking capabilities with animation. (Also fast charging and firing compared to normal collosus) -Custom anti-ship main weapon -Custom particles to slightly match the movies. -Role play Self-Sufficient Battle Station (Produces 500 Energy, alloys, food) -Once build, provides an empire modifier that increases Diplomatic weight from ships. Battle Station Details: -Uses 550 naval and fleet division capacity -Tech requirements = "Tech Juggernaut" "Tech Collosus" and "Tech Planet Cracker" -Estimated Cost of Alloys = 120k+/- -Building days = 3500 ingame days Notes: -Death Star trench will use Empire Color -This battle station is design for end games. -Animations are basic (Not the best but it's okay for my taste.) -By default, the Death Star will rotate like a planet. (Custom animation) -Death Star has no safety, meaning you can destroy any planet like primitives, AI Capital/Planets with Open Borders, etc.. So be warned. -Extremely powerful. FOR NON-FED
