Mega-Assembly Systems
Mega-Assembly Systems is a rare tier 4 engineering technology (Industry) in Stellaris 4.5.2. Its base cost is 8,000 research. It needs Binary Motivators and Galactic Administration. It unlocks Machine Assembly Complex. Console: research_technology tech_mega_assembly.
What Mega-Assembly Systems unlocks
Everything in the game files that lists this technology as a prerequisite; “condition” marks objects that check for it in their conditions instead.
How to get Mega-Assembly Systems
Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 45) and its weight modifiers. Tier 4 opens after 6 tier 3 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.
The whole research path: 8 technologies, 24,500 base research with this one
- Any of
- Machine Intelligence
- Is individual machine
- Is hive empire with machines
- Hive Mind
- Country flag: machine_subspecies
In the game
Advanced templates allow us to drastically increase the assembly of new units.

}Mega-Assembly Systems: questions
How do I get Mega-Assembly Systems in Stellaris?
Research Binary Motivators and Galactic Administration first (8 technologies in the whole chain); then Mega-Assembly Systems can be drawn as one of the 3 engineering research options. 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 does Mega-Assembly Systems do?
It unlocks Machine Assembly Complex (building).
What is the ID of Mega-Assembly Systems?
The technology's ID is tech_mega_assembly. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_mega_assembly (Stellaris 4.5.2).
How much does Mega-Assembly Systems cost?
8,000 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.
