For minmaxing, you should probably spawn as Deneb, because it always is size 20 unless an origin is changing that.

7:37 While you cant see planet size for gas giants in game, you can open up your save file and it will have a section listing every single planet and their planet size, including for planets with invisible planet sizes like gas giants. Doing this I've personally only ever seen as high as size 45 but that's probably more to do with the fact that finding gas giants over size 40 is extremely rare and there are usually only a handful of them in each game. Also regarding the resulting barren world from Deceptive Giant, from what I understand you have to use the maximum size a barren world can be, not a gas giant, cause when it creates the barren world it resets the planet and adds 25 size. So since Barren worlds cap out at around size 30 I think, size 55 is the max.

@@kelalatir Depends on its location. If it's in a strategic position, hell yeah you can get 3 fortress worlds and a fortress habitat in one system, along with 3 orbital rings full of defense platforms to supplement the starbase. Getting through that is an exercise in futility. However, if it's not strategic then thrall worlds into livestock is your best bet. If you aren't overtuned then you can get housing usage down to 0.3 per livestock (rapid breeders + Communal for -20% and livestock gives -50%), which combined with delicious gives you just over 18 food or 12 minerals base per unit of housing, regardless of districts. Farming/mining multipliers from tech apply. If you can add pre-planned growth from overtuned and damn the consequences, you can put 10! pops per unit of housing, giving a staggering 60 base food per housing or 40 base minerals per housing. That is insane.

Fun fact: One time, I saw that in the Klendath system there was a moon around the first world. I thought it was pretty small, so next time I got the Horizon Signal I used it on that system-and I truly was not disappointed. A size 1!

You’ve missed the biggest one with districts. Ecumenopolis.

Paragon is perfectly balanced

Sol system always has mars as a terraforming candidate though, so it can be better later.

This is hilarious! I didn't know a planet could be that size.

The contengencies main world is size 55…

fun fact. if you take size 30 planet lifeseeded/ocean paradise and start with sol you get 1 terraforming candidate (mars)

Wow big planet

2:11 I'm not sure non-Earth starts being the minmax option really bears out given that starting as Earth guarantees you not one but _two_ terraforming candidates (Mars and Proxima Centauri b). Sure, you don't get these until the mid-to-late game, but in the long run they're probably worth more than 0-3 more districts on your homeworld.

But when you take Earth as Home system you always get Mars as a guaranteed terraforming candidate which evens it out. The few missing districts on earth dont matter anyway only a few pop growth percentages

Not exactly truly increasing its size, but you could convert the planet to an ecumenopolis after drenching it, which gives iirc 6 manufacturing jobs vs 2, effectively tripling its size.

When I clicked on this video all my Stellaris knowledge flooded my mind and I suddenly realised what crazy things you can combine. The video just confirmed all my biggest fears. I will open Stellaris and create an Empire which I will just use to get max districts :D

* planet_size has entered the chat *

I didn't hear you mention the Numistic Vent feature that the Numistic Order can offer. +2 max districts +3 gen districts. It is a rare offer, can only be accepted once, and the world it is done it is random; unless it bugs out. I have heard of someone getting it offered over and over and over again while doing the solo planet challenge with a water world origin. The next system over had something hostile and it made the Numistic Caravaneers warp out and reappear in their system over and over. Each time they showed up, they offered the planetary feature again.

sol system btw is actually the best for knights since it gives them 6 research districts and loads of other major and minor habs. it might also be the best for the forge origin if u can change the start since the is so many astorids that it will effect

The azilash might be the best one to go for... It's a size 40 Gaia world you get from a astral scar... As far as I know the ai can't get the scar. I once did it and got almost 8k alloys out of it without paying anything to print them 😬 and yes it was an ecumonopolis in the end

Also, there is the Numa's Breath planetary feature from the caravan that gives more max districts (apparently, I am not sure the last time I saw this!). And there are some anomalies that create planetary features that increase the number of districts.

Imagine how long it would take to populate that planet.

OK, so 96 districts. Make it an ecumenopolis forge world. Get 576 metallurgists. This is fine.

@benoithudson7235

Ай бұрын

Just doing the math on that: * With an upgraded forge and orbital ring building, plus the insight tech, plus catalytic processing, it's 8 alloys base per job. * Chosen one council slot means you get +20% per telepath at level 10, and you can get 5 on the planet. So, +100%. * Tech gives +50% bonus (capital building bonuses and the two +10 metallurgist bonuses) * Shroudwalker teacher gives +25% to psionic, and up to +20% alloys at level 10. So up to +45%. * Stability can get you up to +30%. * Ecumenopolis gets you +20%. So with a quite reasonable build you can have 27.6 alloys times 578 metallurgists, which is a cool ... *15952 allows per month*. Yup. This is definitely fine.

Isn't the moving island thingy with the juvenil nemma also increase max district ?

It doesn't really change what the biggest world is that you can get, but barren world terraforming candidates can get as big as size 30 iirc.

is it possible to capture a planet that another empire set up, which was expanded by them, then you can expand it even more?? like if both are aquatic, could the first empire expand the ocean 3 times, then a new empire takes over and uses expand ocean?? probably not, but maybe something could be done like that.. if the first empire was ocean paradise and expands the ocean, then it is terraformed to say, hive planet or machine planet, or really any other type, does it shrink back down "losing" the expanded ocean??? if not, maybe that could be used to expand the ocean more then once, by terraforming it back to ocean world. also: Dimensional Manipulation Device, listed on the official wiki says "+50% Max Districts" (that is tied to a specific origin) would that lead to a bigger number of districts over all? i'm thinking it'd be on the capital, or possibly even locked to the homeworld?

Biggest without the console. I always set Earth to size 25

Would then making that planet an ecumenopolis give you even more districts???

Could you then turn it into an ecumonopolis world or is the Hydro centric perk mutually exclusive with that one. And if you could do that would it lose the +3 from expanded seas.
