Hi, I’ve had “Navigation Diplomacy” come up in my metaphysics tab, but it’s not in the Wiki Flowchart, and the only note in the Wiki is “Races can be discovered once you have ships”.
As having ships ALREADY allows me to encounter Zebras, what do I need this for? Does it have any effect that makes it worth the 300 paragon?

Thanks, that’s clear enough!

It affects when the first trade race shows up and unlocks the trade tab. On your first run, they show up at year 20. With any amount of karma, that becomes year 5. If you have the Diplomacy metaphysics perk, it’s year 1 instead. And with Navigation Diplomacy, they show up in year 0, but only if you also have ships.
So basically it speeds up runs after using chronospheres.
