So any chance for half robot-half species portraits? Do robot pops grow naturally or have to be produced when you fully transfer? And does gene modding still take forever- could be pretty annoying to unlock all this new stuff and have to wait 10+ years to implement it.
I really can't wait to create a robot species.
But...I really can't resist playing an evil empire, removing emotions from slaves and livestock, and making livestock be delicious.
Wiz, will the Synthetic Ascension change how the rebellion thinks of you?

So, in an ultra-micromanaged playstyle, would it be viable to genemod only part of your species to be Erudites and put that part on research, gene-modify another part to be thrifty and put those on energy and so forth?
Awesome stuff! My only hope is that we get more synth portraits. At the very least, have there be one for each phenotype so we can differentiate the former humans from the former reptiles
So you can't become or befriend prethoryns with biological path... Seems that only spiritualist can become late game crisis.
Mm, is the biological path the only way to save hive-minded pops after conquest? I would guess so, but would be interested to know more specifically.
Do we still need to own species' homeworld in order to genemod them? And how is AI rebellion go along Synthetic ascension?
One question mentioned in another thread - did we get more Droid portraits? Because I can't image reason why would Starfishes create droid which will look like some humanoid ( or turn themself into that form )...
Questions:
1. Will there be random non-state-approved cybernization like it is with gene modding?
2. Will the synthetic ascencion path allow for further upgrades to synths and can we upgrade other species after we have already done so to ourselves?

Given that you're currently looking at gene modding have you considered allowing us to modify pops on colony ships? I'd make sense to be able to modify them to continental preference so I can colonize a continental world (for example), even if it was just limited to that kind of modification and no other it'd be really useful.
+1 for the SMAC reference!
One question: Will we be able to keep the old species portrait if we go full robot? Just because I want to become an immortal machine, doesn't mean I want to LOOK like a machine.

Is the ascended species identical to synths? Do they grow from energy surplus like other pops grow from food, or are they constructed? Do synths now have a bonus to army damage, or is it impossible to recruit armies from them (forcing you to recruit robot or android armies)? What happens to the traits of the original organic species, are they retained in any way?
