Nanite Transmutation
Nanite Transmutation is a rare tier 2 engineering technology (Materials) in Stellaris 4.5.2. Its base cost is 3,000 research. It has no prerequisite technology. It unlocks Nanite Transmuter. Console: research_technology tech_nanite_transmutation.
What Nanite Transmutation 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 Nanite Transmutation
Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 70) and its weight modifiers. Tier 2 opens after 6 tier 1 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.

In the game
The mass-production of these rare resources require particularly capable nanites.

How do I get Nanite Transmutation in Stellaris?
It has no prerequisite: it can be drawn as one of the 3 engineering research options once tier 2 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 does Nanite Transmutation do?
It unlocks Nanite Transmuter (building).
What is the ID of Nanite Transmutation?
The technology's ID is tech_nanite_transmutation. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_nanite_transmutation (Stellaris 4.5.2).
How much does Nanite Transmutation cost?
3,000 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.
