    Now, this was a modded game using Gigastructures and some other stuff.
    I'd conquered the whole galaxy. I'd also integrated every pre-FTL species and even uplifted every pre-sapient in the galaxy.
    I moved every sophont in the galaxy into a single system, using a quadruple ecumenopolis ringworld to hold everyone.
    Then, it was a simple matter of aiming and firing my Nicoll-Dyson beam.

    Voidforge Origin - Those habitats are more broken than you think.
    Rogue servitors - For that quick unity.
    (second civic is well. i use sovering circuits for even more unity as leaders become expensive.
    Main race traits: Machine, Zero-G optimised, Research Assistants, Eternal Machine, Logic Engines, Luxurious, High Bandwidth, High maintenance.
    bio-trophy trais: Invasive Species, jinxed, fleeting, repugnant, slow learnes. (they just need to produce unity. and you dont ever get to roll any leaders from them, neither do they ever produce any amnety so its free bonus' for invasive species.)
    goal while exploring. 1 system with atleast 4 difrenent research orbitals, build the orbitals instead of the research station, build a habitat.
    now you will get 3 zero-g researh district per orbital.
    (the third (and FINAL) habitat should be in a place whith alot of orbitals, so you can spam indsutrial districts for alloy productions.)
    use ARC and dyson swarms for basic resource
    Go virtual pop acsencion.
    go cosmogensis
    once your entire pop is virtual ALL you habitats will be 100% filled with workers. which all have 100% production output do you only having 3 habitats.
    this means that you will gain around 2k in all 3 research from that one habitat.
    you alloy habitat will produce around 1k alloys alone. to finance your fleets.
    now sit back relax and watch as you can end the cosmogenis at year 2400.
    who need synaptic lathe, who needs to make pops when you can just turn on a computer to do your job for you.

I had people look at screenshots and assume I was playing gigastructures, my science was so obnoxious.
