Out of Warranty
The "Out of Warranty" event in Stellaris — flavor, choices, and how to trigger it with the event console command.
Out of Warranty

"We are going to end illness." That's how the invaders won us over. We allowed them to build Gene Clinics on …, eradicating most of our worst diseases within a generation. Now, those clinics are breaking down, years of intense use causing the machines within to grind to a halt. The proper functioning of the invader's technology is beyond us. Can we reverse-engineer it? Or should we repurpose this poisoned gift into something truly our own?Other empires might possess similar facilities. We should ask for help.
