[p]This is a continuation of [URL=steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/3615026960]Stellaris v[4.2-4.3beta] General Fixes[/URL], it combines all old vanilla fixes we found everywhere (credits below and in-code).[/p]
[hr]
I initially created these fixes for myself to eliminate the noise and give myself a foundation for actually modding in peace. Since it's well known that PDX sometimes never fixes certain bugsor only fixes them years later. So, I've now started releasing this collection of general bug fixes for Vanilla and to give Stellaris a little kick in the bottom.
The plan is to make the mod timeless and to continuously expand and update it. All bug fixes included in my other mods will be slowly integrated here.

• Fixes "Features": Corrects a huge amount of various bugs, we or others found.
  
• Performance: Up to 15%! (without trigger tricks or timer tuning, even as we've added many more on_action elements and the existence of the very nasty mod-add bug)–tuned script logic, cleanups (merging) AI_weights and modifiers, using modern syntax as intended, sorting triggers after priority
  
• Localisation: some open reported fixes (for all languages).
  
• Some AI Improvements: Adjustment of some AI weighting modifiers in certain cases.
  
• Creates a Base for Modding (Silences the error.log): Fixes spam so you can find *real* errors (like from your other mods).
  

Creating these bug fixes is a lot of work, but listing and documenting them is another level of effort. Therefore, due to the sheer amount, each bug is usually self-explanatory in the code and marked with "# Vfix" (~2000–even not counting minor ones).
[p]You can find a detailed list of bug fixes in the changelog or on GitHub.Since PDS will integrate the majority of these fixes into the next version, you can read it there – I don't get paid enough for this sh*t.[/p]

By subscribing, liking, and favourite, you help the indie developer (PDX) by showing him exactly where the problems lie–maybe just the symptoms, not the reasons, to be clear. It also tells other players: [p]"No, the game really isn't just a bundle held together by hope.", "No, you're not crazy. The game really is like this."[/p]
You can take everything from here for free. Credit is appreciatedif the bug could be named and was particularly inspiring.
[p]PS: PDS has already begun to integrate this mod [URL=steamcommunity.com/games/281990/announcements/detail/601919683105391817]into Vanilla–since v4.1.7–as you can see).[/URL][/p]

• Not achievement compatibleobviously, we want to free you from needless pain.
  
• Not tutorial compatibleyes, we know, and now you know.
  
• For best results, place this mod near the top of your load orderlet our fixes get overwritten by your cool content mods, not the other way around.
  
• Patch for ~Scripted Trigger Undercoat for General Fixes by kuyan-judith
  
• Unofficial Ariphaos Patch: Only if same version, no patch support anymore, nearly all fixes included anyway!
  
• Includes [URL=steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/2871620925]Bug Fixes[/URL] by Dr. Addiction, but less dominant (integrated for v4.2 just as it was v4.0)
  
• Incorporates [URL=steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/3476603953]Stellaris Fixes[/URL] by SushiDragon.
  
• Merges Stellaris Reforged: Base Fixes by v.kihot (only if conflict)
  
• Otherwise possible conflicts with other mods that fix the same things.
  

Additional Note: Since some peoplewho haven't read everything completely :) and are wondering why full file overwrite, I have to say (Ariphaos should have already explained this in detail): [p]TL;DR LO is crucial!it's the only way to keep the vanilla Load Order active, and I don't want to compete with my modding friend Inny MoRe[/p]
[quote=Ariphaos]This should be compatible with nearly everything as long as this is at the top of your load order. Most changes are independent of each other, and those that are not should work at least as well as in vanilla if one part gets overwritten.[/quote]
Too Long Version; Do Watchthx Wymorlon for hinting: [previewyoutube=YKc1_IEsoCo;full][/previewyoutube]
[p][olist]

Does not support beta versions.

We don't have time to play MP (to put it mildly).

If we might not meet your expectations, stop trolling this project with dislikes. What else could it be?

This is not backed by a full QA department. Testing time is limited, and the game is large, complex, and occasionally held together by hope. As such, this fix may contain bugs of its own.

[/olist]
That said, if this mod causes an issue, please report – a 'dislike' is not a bug report – avoiding such problems has absolute highest priority.
Thanks to Steams impressively algorithm, even a single 'dislike' can nuke visibility. If negative ratings outweigh our remaining mental stamina, continued maintenance of these free fixes may no longer be sustainable.[/p]
Thanks to all supporters and subscribers who actually appreciate this madness. You keep the fixes flowing.😄
