NOTE: I've decided to discontinue this mod. Feel free to use the files for whatever.
About
In a nutshell, this mod lets you pick all of the tier 1 ascension path perks and choose between one of the tier 2. No ascension path is available to machine intelligence and only the genetic ascension path is available to hive minds. I also made it easier to get psionic theory as a research. This mod also makes xeno compatibility not require the xenophile ethic to pick anymore.
Additionally, this mod includes a slightly tweaked work around for species trait compatibility (
!CPCE and
!CPSE). This may or may not be redundant I really don't know, I'm super tired. I might add them as required mods if they get updated or I might just remove them if they really are redundant. Because of !CPSE, you can have latent psionic synthetically evolved biological pops.
NOTE: I recommend using a mod such as
Ascension Science to unlock extra ascension perk slots as this mod does not add them.
Compatibility
This mod edits Psionic Theory (technology), Xeno Compatibility (ascension perk), and all the ascension path perks (ie the Flesh is Weak, Mind over Matter). If any mods edit those then they are probably incompatible.
For reasons that should be obvious to everyone, this mod is
not compatible with achievements.
