What The Rules of Reality does

Modifiers as the game prints them, from the technology's modifier block; then the unlock lines its research card shows.

    The Rules of Reality Reality groans; it protests and grumbles, stubbornly reshaping itself despite our alterations. This unexpected development cannot be allowed to continue.

How to get The Rules of Reality

Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 0) and its weight modifiers. Tier 5 opens after 6 tier 4 technologies of the same area. As a rare technology it is drawn less often, and some rare ones only appear after an event, a relic or a special project.

It needs no other technology.

Conditions (potential)

In the game

Recent experiments confirm that our edits to reality are only temporary. More significant alterations will be necessary to anchor these changes.
