📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Saves real time on exploration and trade routes (247 endorsements).
  • Tiny, focused tweak that doesn't overhaul anything else.
  • Works across multiple order types, not just exploration.

⚠️ Cons

  • Requires re-executing the command once, which might confuse new users.
  • Old mod (last updated 2018) – may not be compatible with latest game patches.
  • Could break if other mods alter ship AI or order behavior.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Stellaris players who hate watching ships sit idle during explore orders and want faster fleet efficiency. If you're a modder or use heavy AI overhaul mods, check compatibility first. Skip if you prefer vanilla pacing or don't use explore/trade orders often.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • After installing, manually re-issue any active explore orders to apply the change.
