Varied Bounties

Description
Allows Peacekeeper stations and bounties to generate in star systems of a lower level than the bounty level (e.g. at the first level it will use only gentle stars, at the second it will use gentle and temperate, and so on).

Vanilla behavior limits bounties to stars that match the level (e.g. at the second level it will ONLY use temperate stars) which greatly limits the planet variety at any given stage. (Hey Chucklefish, adding bounties didn't make it any less boring for endgame to consist of only volcanic and scorched planets!)

Note that the difficulty level of each individual encounter corresponds to the level of the planet it is set on, or the orbited star for space encounters, so the difficulty gap between bounties may be significantly larger than in vanilla.

Only affects vanilla star types (gentle, temperate, radioactive, frozen, fiery). Ask someone else to do this for modded star types; I don't use any mods that add them and so am in a poor position to support that.

Pandora and Sparky, that's a cancerous attitude.

For me it's not generating any Bounties at all, can't even complete the Quest

The design flaw of this update in a sentence.
Indeed, what a trip it was...until one end at fiery stars again.
It's depressingly how CF managed to sour every great update with one significant flaw.

Looking forward to seeing this get FU support, perhaps something to make it scale differently too.

Good job there! Hope the guys at FU see this mod!
