Modding galaxy generator?

Post by Tyrador »

After playing a lot of games in spiral galaxy maps, I found that habitable planet placement (Continental and Marshy swamp)is a very dumb and nonsensical! That is because they are not spread out property and are in close packs.
Is there any way to change that?

This is good question. Also i would want to know, is it possible to make more, than 1400+ stars on map and make the size of the map much bigger, like 2-3 times at least?

Only by using the in-game editor I'm afraid Tyrador. [:(]

Not at this time, it is hard coded. But could be possible in a future expansion. Elliot has increased the map size once before. Put your request in the Master Wishlist thread. [:)]
