What L-Gate Activation does

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

  • Unlocks Special Project: Activate L-Gate
    Researching this technology will unlock a special project to activate an L-Gate if any are located within our owned space.

How to get L-Gate Activation

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 3 opens after 6 tier 2 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)
  • Not: Galaxy flag: l_cluster_opened

In the game

The L-Gates defy our current understanding of subspace mechanics. This must be remedied before they can be opened for travel.

Console command

It has no prerequisite: it can be drawn as one of the 3 physics research options once tier 3 is open. It is a rare technology: its draw weight is low, and some are only offered after an event, a relic or a special project. It also has conditions (see Requirements on this page).

What is the ID of L-Gate Activation?

The technology's ID is tech_lgate_activation. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_lgate_activation (Stellaris 4.5.2).

How much does L-Gate Activation cost?

6,000 physics 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.
