Stellaris Dev Diary #83: Čapek Feature Roundup (part 1)

Odd, I do not see the "Create Vassal" option when I play the game. I colonized a world, even deleted my core worlds leader, and I do not see it anywhere (Didn't see it anywhere in another version with more planets in it) The option is missing entirely. Is this perhaps due to issues with others DLC's?? Can anyone help??

Are you looking at the 'planet summary' tab of an inhabited planet? The button even shows up on your capital (although grayed out).

Yup. It is always completely missing, no matter what I do or where I look (It isn't even grayed out) Does it disappear at some point? Do Cheatcodes or high tech levels make it disappear?

Let's see a screenshot then, of the planet you're trying to create a vassal of.

I've even reinstalled the game and DLC's and still nothing. have this on Steam.

This is what I get for every world in every save. No Vassal option.

Time for a bug report?

Were those saves started under the new patch?

You probably have a civic that prevents it:

can_release_vassal = {
   NOT = { has_valid_civic = civic_fanatic_purifiers }
   NOT = { has_valid_civic = civic_machine_terminator }
   NOT = { has_valid_civic = civic_machine_assimilator }
   NOT = { has_valid_civic = civic_hive_devouring_swarm }
}

Also if the only pops on the planet are not free-willed you can't release it:

can_release_vassal_from_species = {
   root = {
       is_sapient = yes
       NOR = {
           has_trait = trait_machine_unit
           has_trait = trait_hive_mind
           has_trait = trait_mechanical
           has_trait = trait_nerve_stapled
       }
   }
}

   }
}

Nope that's not it, because I'm playing a machine terminator and I have the greyed-out button.

It's actually a bit of a UI bug. On lower resolutions the button doesn't appear, as seen in Rholden's pic. I used to play on a lower resolution borderless window, and I had that problem, but playing on fullscreen (max resolution) fixed it. It's not an ideal fix though because the game is pretty slow now.

Dunno what to report in a bug report.

I'd report exactly that with screenshots showing what it looks like at the different resolutions.
