Stellaris Companion 0.8.4More Reliable Pegasus Campaign Analysis

This update improves compatibility with Stellaris 4.4 saves, fixes multiplayer empire selection, and strengthens the campaign data behind Advisor recommendations and Chronicle updates.

Highlights

What Changed in 0.8.4

SAVE

Stronger Stellaris 4.4 Parsing

Updated extraction handles the latest Pegasus save structures more accurately across colonies, fleets, leaders, and diplomacy.

MP

Correct Multiplayer Empire

Multiplayer saves are less likely to select another participant's empire when building the player's briefing.

QA

More Reliable Recommendations

Save scanning, Chronicle updates, and Advisor recommendations benefit from broader compatibility checks and extraction validation.

Pegasus Saves

More accurate campaign context from Stellaris 4.4

Version 0.8.4 strengthened support for the save structures used by current Pegasus campaigns, reducing misleading gaps before context reaches the Advisor or Chronicle.

  • Population and colony information is extracted from the current 4.4 schema.
  • Fleet classes and hired leaders are counted more accurately.
  • Known empires are separated from special diplomatic entities.
Multiplayer

Briefings stay attached to the right player empire

Player-empire selection was corrected for Stellaris 4.x multiplayer saves, preventing another empire's data from taking over the analysis.

  • The selected player country is resolved more reliably.
  • Diplomacy and leader totals are checked against the matching empire.
  • Advisor recommendations and Chronicle updates inherit the corrected context.
Reliability

More confidence from scan to recommendation

The release added broader save fixtures and extraction-health checks to catch incomplete or inconsistent campaign data before it becomes bad advice.

  • Save scanning is more resilient across supported Stellaris versions.
  • Chronicle updates receive cleaner history and empire context.
  • Special thanks to will-o-matic for reporting and helping fix these issues.
