Stellaris grand strategy space game by Paradox discussy thingy thready thingy

Playing Rogue Servitors, I got into a sort of Trouble with Tribbles situation. It’s amazing how expensive those biotrophies are to maintain once you work it all out. I expanded to too many planet too quickly and set up biotrophies on most of them. Problem is that you have to pay for robot construction, but those cute little butterflies keep multiplying and multiplying. That becomes quite a weight on the economy considering you need drones to build the consumer goods, drones to mine the minerals for the consumer goods, drones to grow the food, drones to provide the energy for the above drones and buildings AND drones to provide the amenities for the trophies and drones involved in supporting them.

I mean, I am flying through the ascension perks, but I should have put these guys on no reproduction some time ago.
