Documentation and examples for the free_policies command in Stellaris.
free_policies
This command enables or disables (toggles) your ability to make policy changes with no restrictions.
In-depth description
The free_policies is a console command in the game Stellaris that upon execution, removes any limitations or prerequisites for changing governmental policies and species rights.
Normally, there are time restrictions or other conditions that must be met to change policies in the game, such as wait times since the last switch, or minimum ethics attraction.
When the free_policies command is used, these restrictions are removed, and such changes can be made immediately and at any moment.
This can be particularly helpful if you need to quickly adapt your empire's policies to an urgent situation, if you want to try different policy combinations, or if you simply want a more flexible governance style.
