+ Stellar Catalyst Stellaris
Stellar Catalyst
A companion mod for Real Space
This mod introduces a minor megastructure that can be built by any empire that researches the appropriate technology. The stellar catalyst triggers fusion in a Y or P class dwarf, the brown-dwarves – “failed” stars which didn’t accumulate enough mas to ignite and produces some energy like a cheaper, more restricted dyson sphere.
FAQ:
“Will you make a standalone version”.
If by standalone version you mean either A: Without utopia DLC or B: Without need for realspace the answer is no.
A: Can’t make it without utopia due to the assets from the dyson sphere.
B: Without realspace there’d be no Y or T class dwarves to build the machine on. Being able to build them on any gas giant loses the point and I don’t feel like mantaining a fork of realspace just for the dwarf stars.

Technology: Stellar Catalyst:
Available after Quantum Energy States and Deep Space Installations as a rare particle physics technology.
Megastructure Stellar Catalyst Proper:
A multi-tier installation with model based on the dyson sphere.
Stage 1: Construction Platform

Build time: 900 Days.
Maintenance: 5 energy
Stage 2: Superstructure
Cost: 15000 minerals
Build time: 1800 days
Maintenance 10 energy
Stage 3: Complete superstructure
Cost: 15000 minerals
Build time: 1800 days
Maintenance 25 energy
Stage 4: Accretion
Cost: 10000 minerals
Build time 1800 days
Maintenance: 50 energy. 10 minerals.
Stage 4: Compression
Cost: 10000 minerals
Build time 1800 days
Maintenance: 100 energy. 10 minerals.
Stage 5: Ignition
Cost: 20000 energy.
Build time20 days
Income: 300 energy + 20 physics.
The income is almost equal to a full dyson sphere, but I based my balance on Improved Megastructures which makes megastructures more meaningful given the time and resource investment. Its one-fourth of a full dyson sphere (1200 energy). It’s simple enough to edit the file yourself to change the output to an appropriate balance.
Patches:
This mod patches the planetclasses from Real Space to make class T and Y dwarves to have a constant size (needed for the mod mechanics) and makes them a little more common so a small empire might have one or two in their territory to justify its construction. No core game files are modfied.
I’d like to once more extend a big thanks to TTFTCUTS and Wolin here on steam for their help with scripting and .asset coding, TTFtCUTS by giving me a good suggestion for the megastructure’s name and of course to Annatar for creating Real Space

Realspace is a dependency to the mod so you should get directed to it automatically.
