Native Planets?

Post by FlashXx »

Is there currently a way to mod the native planets of each race (Including minors)?

For context what I want to do is change each race's home world to something more consistent with modern theories about the requirements for the evolution of life. I did this in DW1, but of course now I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing anymore. I just installed the game haha.

This can be done.

It's controlled by the ColonizationSuitabilityModifiers values in the Races.xml file.

Whichever has the highest suitability will be considered the native planet.

If there's more than one "highest" value, whichever is first in the list of highest values will be the native planet.
