Determined Exterminators not getting unity after hot fix

[Zudraken]

As the titles says Determined Exterminators dont get any unity anymore from purging which is a issue because that is what they are suppost to get.

Might be a bug. I purged some xenos with Fanatic Purifiers in 4.0.4, and got no unity when I set the purge type to "Neutering".

Also having this issue. Purged pops only produce insane amounts of energy and no unity.

How do these random things keep breaking?

Has purging ever worked on this patch?

My necrophages are on storage until the necropurging is fixed at least.

They took the spaghetti code, and added layers on top to make lasagne.

But in all fairness, a game of this type is incredibly complex and even the best designs will have many interconnected systems making it very difficult to adjust one without side effects.

I do think they could have delayed release a bit, or applied some additional testing.

I don't recall having gotten unity for purging as Exterminators in a very long time. If it was happening in 3.14 it certainly wasn't a noticeable amount. I thought it was only Purifiers who got unity for it, though the wiki says that Exterminators should as well.

Alternatively, maybe it is not produced by the purge jobs, but a one-off triggered for each pop when it actually dies during the purge? If that were the case it wouldn't show up in the planet production screen in the screenshot, even if it were happening (and indeed, "5-100 unity per purged pop" would be a ridiculous amount to be getting monthly from purge jobs). And that it something I could see getting broken during the move to centipops.

It also looks like Exterminators don't purge pre-sapients on their worlds anymore as of 4.0, lol.

I can only speak for Purifiers, but in 3.14 purging were completely fine for them. As in, it was a monthly unity gain per pop (2 base) as a job.

The Exterminators not purging Pre-sapients is the only thing which saved my joke run where I made a purifier species with Nascent Stage.

When Paradox finally fixes the pre-sapients they'll need to make Nascent Stage recognised as "Self" by purifiers

I confirm this issue
