What does Holographic Casts do?
It unlocks Alloy Mega-Forges (building), Alloy Reclamation Plant (building) and Solid-Light Smelter (building). It leads to Ceramo-Metal Alloys, Global Production Strategy and Nano-Separators.
What is the ID of Holographic Casts?
The technology's ID is tech_alloys_1. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_alloys_1 (Stellaris 4.5.2).
How much does Holographic Casts cost?
1,500 engineering research before modifiers. In game the cost grows with empire size (+0.2% per point above the base, common/defines) and the galaxy's tech cost setting.
