I tried this, changing the value to 10. When I tried loading my last save game, Stellaris crashed. I tried starting a new game, and it crashed as well. When I validated the files, there was one file that failed validation, and I'm assuming it was the defines....

Only that you can't counter that leader-softcap like most other soft-caps in the game.

For Empire-size you can reduce its effect by simply having more science/unity-planets. For the pop-growth you can have more "empty" planets that are only there to produce pops. Heck even the Fleetcapacity you can counter by producing more energy.

You can't counter the exp-gain-...

Turn off your UI mods, until they update.

Using borderless fullscreen or windowed game mode will resolve some of this (go to game settings in the launcher), as will disabling mods. The rest will likely be fixed by updating your video card drivers.

Concepts are only used on the galaxy setup screen for now. They will be gradually rolled out over the next few patches.

I would but my game won't start since the last update. So I'm playing Distant Worlds 2 again, as usual.
Disable your mods, and update your video card drivers. This resolves about 95% of crashing on launch issues.

Can't open the launcher because it just keeps auto-cycling into Update.
Do you mean Steam keeps cycling into update? Tuesday is Steam Maintenance day, its likely whatever regional server you're connected to is rebooting/upgrading/under some sort of maintenance. If you wait a few minutes, reboot Steam, it will likely complete the update cycle then.

If you're referring to the launcher cycling into auto-update: Go to start, Add/Remove Programs, and uninstall Paradox Launcher V2. Then attempt to restart the game, the launcher will download and r... Read more

Yes, from the OP:
Unable to click the UI/buttons offset
This appears to be an issue related to the game resolution setting and Direct X 11. People have been reporting that pressing alt+tab or alt+enter on the game will resolve the issue temporarily.

For a more permanent fix: In the launcher, go to Game Settings, and ensure that your resolution is set correct... Read more

And you can design your Ruler without using Under One Rule as an origin :)

You're on 3.7.2? Then you haven't been getting updates for awhile, the latest version of 3.7 was 3.7.4.

Right click Stellaris, Properties, Betas tab and make sure it says "None" in the dropdown.

The devs are aware of the desync issues in the coop beta, and are hard at work resolving the issues. :) Thanks for trying out the beta, just the same!

Hello everyone! I’m XM, the lead designer of Galactic Paragons. From the beginning of development, we’ve followed one simple mantra - make leaders matter. What you are going to read about in the following paragraphs are the results of months of work following that direction.

Wishlist Galactic Paragons[pdxint.at]!

Reducing Leader Count
For leaders to start being significant, there needed to be a lot less of them. With this goal in mind, we removed the research scientist positions currently in the game, and combined them into a single “Head of Research” Council position (we’ll talk in more detail about the Council later). We also allowed leaders to perform Council duties while maintaining their field positions. These changes dramatically reduced the number of leaders you need to keep track of.

Does it take this long without mods? My setup takes ~40 seconds to load and I don't have a great computer.

I suggest nuking your old save files and oos folder, since these grow rather large sometimes. You can also manually delete your /steamapps/stellaris folder and then re-download, since something doesn't seem right here.

If none of this stuff fixes it, go to support.paradoxplaza.com and open a ticket, customer support should be able to help you with this.

This is a known issue on the open beta branch, monthly market trades are not added/taken away from the empire stockpile.
