All Ascension Paths

All Ascension Paths for 4. 4 Do you want your psionic, cybernetic, gene modded pops working hand in hand with synths? Do you your genes to be pure, cloned and also highly mutated? Do you want to give worthy species psionics, while turning the dross into synths? Do you want your Machine Empire to have modular, nanite-based bodies, accessible virtually? I'm guessing so because you're looking at this mod. Regular empires can take all 4 Ascensions, when you Synthetically Ascend you get to pick a portion of your population to remain as organic, because if you've taken the others, they are a bit good by this point. Hive minds can take both genetics and cybernetics, Driven Assimilators can take synthetic age, cybernetics and engineered evolution. While you can take the ascension paths in any order, but because of how internal game logic works around dominant species I recommend doing synthetics last. Use the Assimilation Living standard to determine if an assimilated pop gets cyborg/psionics traits or goes to synths. See Assimilation Manual Because there are lots of edge cases around this, you are provided with 3 edicts that will fix your primary species to have psionics and cybernetics if they have lost them, and ensure that biological leaders will get psionics, cybernetics and erudite. If you have the Machine Age DLC then whether you get cybernetic or synthetic advanced government will depend on whether you flip your leaders to synths or keep them biological. If you are a Machine Empire you will get an edict to gain access to the additional tradition trees after you FINISH the first. If you have Biogenesis DLC you will get an edict to gain access to the additional tradition trees after you FINISH the first. If you have an origin that would normally lock to one Biogenesis tradition, I strongly recommend taking that one first.
