It's possible to have a Event who pop Alien Pets on planets to work with the Xeno Zoo? I found these really rare on my various plays.

http://tuttu.free.fr/Stellaris/event_pictures/pictures/GFX_evt_in_the_dark.png Something like: "We have discover a mysterious wildlife in deep planet_name caves, our scientific want to attend to study them"

Approve [All] > Roll the event Do not interfere [All] > Decline the Event Exterminate [only for Military/Xenophobe] (?) > Decline the Event

[BEST] x% to pop Alien Pets "These innocent strange animals are very senstive to cuddle"

[NORMAL] x% to gain x Society Research "A fascinating ancestral specie"

[FAILED] x% a random Scientific die "This Xeno is far more violent and dangerous that expected, one of our scientific got teared apart. We had to abandon and secure the cave"

[CRITICAL] x% killing a random Scientific and a population is convert into Dangerous Wildlife "We have awake and been outrun by this dangerous wildlife. We must abandon and quarantine the place"

A short event chain trigger on populated/owned planet. [Other] mean other than the listed.

Under The Blanket

http://tuttu.free.fr/Stellaris/event_pictures/pictures/GFX_evt_mining_operations.png

Early reports claim a probable discovery of an unknown and mysterious alien activity in the deep underground of [Planet]. The analysis of the signatures states an undocumented wildlife find. [Scientist] want to attempt a ground operation to study them.

[Materialist] We must study them right away. Exciting discovery. [Militarist & Xenophobe] These xeno could be dangerous. [Other] We are sending our scientist carefully study the caves.

Progress towards Ground Team

Ground Team

http://tuttu.free.fr/Stellaris/event_pictures/pictures/GFX_evt_in_the_dark.png

After breaching the first solid layers of rocks, our scientific escort continues his careful approach deep inside these unknown cavity. Signs of erosion around the walls confirm the presence of an undated specie. Probably thousand of them used to shift in and out. Arriving near the dense chamber the team suddenly stopped his progression. All monitors are alarming. Something awake. We have a contact.

[Militarist & Xenophobe] To all units. Retreat immediately. [Other] It's too dangerous to proceed. Retreat.

Progress towards Retreat

[Materialist] What are their intentions? Did we disturb them? [Militarist & Xenophobe] Get the soldiers ready. Protect the scientist. [Other] Proceed the investigations with caution.

Progress towards First Contact

  1. [All] 30% chance to trigger http://tuttu.free.fr/Stellaris/event_pictures/pictures/GFX_evt_landing_ship.png

After receiving the order, the squad quickly moved his way back. Suddenly loud guttural groans of the unknown xeno vibrate around the cave's walls. Out of shadows, dozens of beasts charged us, three of our soldiers got instantly teared apart. Brutally breaching from the walls, large claws violently eviscerate six other members. Running for their lives, [Scientist] and one soldier made it to the exit. With his sense of duty to protect [Empire Name], the remaining soldier sacrificed himself with his emergency nuclear warhead, leaving the ship fly away, leaving the horror behind.

[Militarist & Xenophobe] Damn abominations! [Other] We will remember them.

Result: [Scientist] gain the Substance Abuser & Paranoid traits. End of Event.

  1. [All] 35% chance to trigger http://tuttu.free.fr/Stellaris/event_pictures/pictures/GFX_evt_society_research.png

On their way to the exit gallery, the group realised than an undetectable moving form follows in the shadow. Soldiers take the initiative to shoot the target with a powerful energy emitter bolt, incapacitate the unknown menace. Taking back the xeno to the ship into a shielded cell, the initial observations tend to conclude of a nonadult specimens.

[Militarist & Xenophobe] The dissection of this xeno will strength us. [Others] The observation of this species can reveal his secrets.

Result: Gain 25% Research gain in Morphogenetic Field Mastery. End of Event.

  1. [All] 35% chance to trigger http://tuttu.free.fr/Stellaris/event_pictures/pictures/GFX_evt_mem_laboratory.png

With caution the scientific mission move his way to the exit. The monitors rapidly silent. The team secure the cave's entrance leaving the alien life form with his mystery. [Scientist] had time to launch an orb scan, giving precious architectural information. He plans to keep monitor the situation remotely.

[Xenophile] Bomb the site. [Others] This specie didn't reveal all his secrets.

Result: 100 Society Research gain. [Scientist] gain the Archaeologist trait. End of Event.

The scientist order the escort to hold back. With hesitation a small unknown figure approaches our group. [Scientific] extend his hand to initiate a contact. The wildlife careful smells it before rubbing his head to it. After a brief moment, a guttural moaning noise comes out of the creature. Suddenly, [Scientific] gets rapidly swarmed by hundred of these small furry specimens. These strange innocent animals are very sensitive to cuddle.

[Militarist & Xenophobe] They can be used as great labour. [Other] Our people will likely adopt them.

Result: Alien Pets appear on [Planet]. End of Event.

  1. [All] NORMAL: 35% chance to trigger http://tuttu.free.fr/Stellaris/event_pictures/pictures/GFX_evt_alien_nature.png

The scientific mission pursues its investigations in the large chamber. Our temperature and humidity measure reveal a tropical ecosystem with vegetation and water, perfectly equilibrate. Tens of middle size organic creatures seem to peacefully live here. Completely ignoring the escort, the early observations tend to label the awake creatures as janitors guarding the hibernate ones. The scientific consortium will further the research remotely to prevent all contamination and disturb.

[Xenophobe] Bomb the site, we can't take risks. [Other] A fascinating self-sufficient specie.

Result: 300 Society Research gain. End of Event.

  1. [All] FAILED: 25% chance to trigger http://tuttu.free.fr/Stellaris/event_pictures/pictures/GFX_evt_landing_ship.png

This wildlife is far more violent and dangerous than expected. As a sign to try to communicate peacefully, the scientist got lacerate. We had to abort the mission and secure the zone. Thanks to our heavy autocannons sentries armed with nuclear-grade ammunition, we contain the rush of beasts. While the backup team secured the exit, thousands bullets and growls could be heard behind the reinforcement being built in urge.

[Militarist & Xenophobe] Damn abominations! [Other] A regrettable loss.

Result: [Scientist] killed. End of Event.

  1. [All] CRITICAL: 10% chance to trigger http://tuttu.free.fr/Stellaris/event_pictures/pictures/GFX_evt_burning_settlement.png

By making a careful approach to the wildlife, [Scientist] get rapidly surrounded. The massive Alpha makes a move. The single brutal guttural groan of the alien sheared the scientist into pieces of tatters. The escort rapidly fire back but get savaged trample by thousand of them. The last feedback of the backup team report earthquake before the signal suddenly shatters. We have awake and been outrun by this dangerous wildlife. We must abandon and secure the region immediately.

[Militarist & Xenophobe] Damn abominations! [Other] This is a tragedy.

Result: [Scientist] killed and a population is converted into Dangerous Wildlife. End of Event.

@GoldMath : what do you prefer here regarding the scientist selection ? Should I force a special project so the player will himself choose a scientist to do this event (That's fair for him) or should I simply take a random scientist from the pool of scientists (It's not fair for the player) ?

GoldMath commented 7 years ago

@Tuttu : Selecting the scientific could be great addition yes, a pool of 3. I will prepare a short text for that. something like:

"...who should lead the expedition? we have a veteran, volunteer and rookie"

The choice have no effects, but it could be interesting to add some in the future. I can imagine some spicy and flavours.

Extra-coding suggestion: It's possible to make the choice of the scientist linked to the rank/lvl ?

veteran=3/5 stars if none=random; volunteer=random; rookie=1/3 stars if none=random;

Tuttu commented 7 years ago

Well, whether it is done randomly or by the player, you have to select a scientist in the end if you want to kill one. ;) I will try to do it the way you suggest it and if I can't, I will go for a random scientist.

Here is the second wave for Under The Blanket, extending the possibility. Text not finished, posted for Tuttu.

  1. [All] Rare & Long Delay (From Retreat //2 TO First Contact //4 Dangerous Wildlife code) Image: GFX_evt_burning_settlement Sound:

The capture of the nonadult specie start to reveal his secrets. As innocent it could look for its size, about half us, its three large dense sharp claws fixed on the neck shouldn't be ignored. Composed of eight support members, the alien was capable of moving all around its cell relatively fast with agility. The bulky chest hide twelve small hearts, protected by a body armour shaped of harder rotten flesh who showed great resistance. Diet has an exclusive preference for living things and targeted the brain. Specialists can't uncover any kindness or intelligence, it seems bold bestial and survival.\n\nHowever the mutant kept sending undetectable low frequency signal to the cave localisation.\n\nToday alarming seismic data all around [Root.GetName] are reported. The dangerousness of the early signals launch a planetary security protocol, military forces deploy to all regions. Swarms fourth the size of the similar aliens previously studied rushed us from the ground. Well prepared and trenched; most of the assault is contained thanks to our knowledge of their weak points and courage of our forces. Unfortunately the epicentre of the cave generates most of the siege, we couldn't save the region.

[Militarist & Xenophobe] Damn abominations! [Other] This is a tragedy.

Result: Kill Pop - Dangerous Wildlife

Under the Blanket

(From Retreat //3 - NO Xeno/Milita) Image: GFX_evt_mem_laboratory Sound: event_administrative_work

Our probe finished his route brutally in the dense underground gallery before being destroyed. Further analyse of collected data give more awareness about the unknown organism. Signatures show it tends to continue to expand and growth which can be seen as dangerous even if it didn't cause any destabilise or harm on [Root.GetName].\n\nThe science department, conduct by [mem_under_blanket_selectedleader.GetName], conclude the organic species seems gruff and find their nutrition by swallowing crystallites which are life-sustaining, also produce gas. Head division on [Root.GetName] urge the importance of mining these strategic crystals and decimate a proliferate uncontrollable menace who already attacked our scan drone.

[NO Xenophile] Strategic resources should be prioritised.

Progress towards Genocide

[All] Do not harm them. Send an escort.

Progress towards Heritage

We were capable of determining the gas produced by the organism as highly combustible. Military decide to torch the entire gallery, crystals being immune there will be no consequences. Regrouped and fortified around the entrance, the launch sequence of the missile is initiated. Launch is ordained. An undying silence made the outpost nervous. As soon as thunderous deep bursts were heard, a massive fireball came out, the ground crackling under the pressure. In no time the sterilizing team make a move inside equipped with fireproof suits and heavy equipment. Tunnels are sketched by freshly claws marks. Arriving into the biggest chamber, last know localization of the probe, the nest. Suffocation and squeaks of agony surrounded the place. Thousand cowered in sufferings, the squad quickly realize the floor was a veil of thousand calcined carcasses. At the edge of the cavity a horrifyingly burned one struggle trying to reach a semblable before slipping away. Here the end of a whole life form. Haunted shrieks can still be perceived.n\n\The crystallites are intact, we found them.

[All] Clean the chamber and start excavation. [All] At what cost.

Result: [Planet] gain Teldar Crystals or Yurantic Crystals or Muutagan Crystals strategic ressource. End of Event.

Determined to make contact with the life form, the team carefully rendezvous to the last localization of our orb scanner. As attested beforehand, gas is detected and unexpectedly pungent. Thundery deep bursts start to get audible as the escort find his way closer. The beasts are now visually identified, it doesn't look disgruntle by our presence. Hulking with a rock armor and chunky, the gluttony behavior shows a geophagia diet. As we observe them, scientists discover that the creature as regular period stop gulping crystals, then just stand still before kneeling. From a different angle, a large dilatation of the skin is perceptible on the lower body followed by gas. Something dense came out. [mem_under_blanket_selectedleader.GetName] is categoric: They produce enriched minerals.

[All] Fascinating.

Result: High Quality Minerals Planet Modifier. End of Event.

[mem_under_blanket_selectedleader.GetName] is reported missing. After investigation, a secret stash of casebooks and a custom-build analysis machine are exposed in his laboratory. Spectrograph sketches, multiple erasures and various annotations all over the pages acknowledge an incredible found by the unexperienced scientist, the gas seems to communicate. Highly volatile and mutagens the fume form was able to shape itself into different chemical signatures.n\n\H-I, Co-N-V-Er-Ge, U-S, He-Re, F-O-U-Nd, La-W-S, As, O-Ne.n\Following a sequence revealing a coordinate based on atomic weight values, rescue team is on his way.n\n[mem_under_blanket_selectedleader.GetName] is found levitate naked and unconscious holding a spheric obsidian stone on his chest in the middle of a large crystallite chamber. As the group approach closer, a dense multicolor veil of vapor shun from his body and suddenly awoke him. In shock and falling on the ground, he avows: I know everything, laws converge as one.

[All] Fascinating.

Result: [Scientist] gain the Spark of Genius & Adaptable traits. End of Event.

It's a big day for [mem_under_blanket_selectedleader.GetName], after convicting the officials to conserve the unknown organism and prevent the mining of the crystals, it's time to expose his results described as a "major breakthrough". With an impressive field of expertise in multiple domains, numerous of prominent scientific thesis, his reputation made him one of the best minds on [Empire]. -TO COMPLETE-

[All] Shame.

Result: Small Minerals Gain. [Scientist] gain the Paranoid. End of Event.
