Better Planet Generation

More than planets Improve Planet Generation is a total overhaul of the planetary generation in No Man's Sky. It improves by a meaning margin the procedural aspect of the universe while at the same time respecting the original work and vision from Hello Games. Information technology adds over 400 new handcrafted, distinct environments to the universe . All of them come in v different life levels and varying placement scales and layouts. These environments were made to seamlessly combine with each other in many dissimilar ways.

Better Planet Generation is designed to bring variety to the dissimilar biomes yous will visit merely most of all information technology brings a lot of variation to the universe. Outside of the endless combinations of assets and their resulting new environments, planets you visit will nowadays themselves differently each time. Placement layouts, calibration of the regions, density, variety of assets and their respective scale, ...

No planet will look exactly the aforementioned. Unless, of course, information technology is a very simple 1. More on that below.

New Biome

Better Planet Generation introduces a whole new biome that was added with Origins but never enabled : Waterworld.

This completely new environment can manifests itself in two ways. Either a dead planet but with an atmosphere and loftier chance of h2o bodies or an underwater inspired conflicting biome. Information technology comes with its own planetary descriptions and flavour texts for the atmospheric condition, likewise as custom colour palettes.

Planets are generated dynamically and offering a sizable amount of variety and variation despite their specific nature.

Improved variety Not merely does BPG add planets to the universe, it as well introduces a system I telephone call Augmented Planets.

This framework that operates on pinnacle of the vanilla game planet generation is designed to spawn an additional surroundings alongside the original i. In a safe, stable and operation friendly manner.

This system can dramatically modify the experience of a vanilla planet.

Each vanilla planet has a 100% chance to spawn addtional objects. This can range from a few medium sized objects to a more than significant number of avails in various scales and placement densities, depending on the life level.

Sub Biomes

Caves and underwater sub biomes have besides been entirely overhauled.

Tons of new variants have been added underground and only similar on the surface, additional objects can spawn to increase variety even more.

Underwater has been completely revamped and is now generated through a triple layered dynamic framework combining assets to generate highly varied and detailed environments.

Unique planets

On top of all the added diverseness, BPG as well uses a flexible dynamic generation framework that tin take many shapes and create countless planetary variations, fifty-fifty when the same environment are being used multiple times.

Each planet generated has its ain selection of parts based on its biome. Some liberties have been taken when designing and attributing those parts to the various biomes. Some objects have been injected to amend variety, but some restrictions take as well been applied to preserve each biome'due south identity. Better Planet Generation also introduces a lot of restored and modified, repurposed assets to the game in order to increase the diversity while preserving its visual style.

Natural Generation

Better Planet Generation is a vastly different experience compared to the unmodded game and even other biome MODS.
Not even taking into account the small details, it is more than probable that you will never be able to encounter all the possible assets combinations this Modern can generate. Permit alone in the different regional layouts each dynamic template can result in.

Each biome has admission to multiple procedural templates. Each producing different results in terms of layouts and objects combinations.
Their common goal is to show you a different kind of surround each time. Aesthetically and structurally.
No more "postcard" planets where most of what there is to see is right around the corner. The scale of the generation can get extremely vast compared to the vanilla game.

Planetary generation can now bear on your visual enjoyment and the gameplay.
It is a video game, subsequently all.

A world generated at its fullest possible level and highest complexity can have yous some fourth dimension to fully explore on foot. Meaning seeing the most notable regions (and not all of them) and scanning everything.

More than Variation

On the other manus, Better Planet Generation besides allows more unproblematic, generic even so still visually interesting planets to see :

- Planets only covered in grass and some plants, rocks or both.
- More barren worlds dominated by giant stone or crystal spires.
- Radioactive wastelands.
- Planets dotted with copse or occasional small forests.
- Volcanic wastelands.
- Toxic fields.
- Rocky swamps.
- ...

And the listing goes on and on.

The occurence of these "generic" planets only relies on probabilites. None of my templates is designed to specifically produce them.
I made sure they still looked good, though.

Dissimilar Experience

Better Planet Generation is not for everyone. Planets tin exist both very detailed in every aspect or very simple.
If you await to ever see trees and a full grass coverage on your Lush planet or anywhere else, there are other MODs for that.
This is non what yous should await using BPG.

Now, whether you are a new thespian set up to explore an space universe or a more weathered ane that wants to be surprised past the game once more, I suggest you give Ameliorate Planet Generation a endeavor. Information technology won't harm your game in whatsoever mode.

Alarm Before INSTALLING :

Installing this mod will operate changes to the terrain in every biomes.
Information technology is also recommended to install it while in a infinite station / anomaly / freighter and not on a planet'due south surface.
Some major updates to the mod tin can reset the terrain or biome lists.
I'll include a warning on the download page and the sticky when it's the example.
