Question about phenotypes

from GalCiv4 Forums

I guess phenotypes were added a few months ago.  Was a phenotype randomly assigned to my existing civs?  It looks like it?  My House Liao guys are now "artificial" and my space wasps are "plantoid".  And I can't change this in the interface.  Any chance we could have that be editable without going into the xml files?  Or is there a way and I'm just not seeing it.  (I'm pretty sure that's not what "phenotype" means either, but that's no big.)

Hello!
I was poking around and found that phenotypes are attached to the species, and can be adjusted by picking a different species accordingly, which everyone can do from a list, as well as download others from workshop. You cannot make a unique species yourself without the species pack though

Gotcha.  Before there were generative citizen types, I picked the ones that I thought would be good for the goofy civs I was making.  Those then informed the civ "species" when that was added, and thus the "phenotype".

I see, thanks
