This mod is fantastic; it lets me not have a weird "half globe" while still letting me generate a world within 10 seconds

highly recommend this + rolling a full planet 1 size down, rather than the default half globe

I dont care about good ideas really. I'll sit for an hour if it means something twice the size of a regular world.

i love using this mod but i am on 1.6 unstable and the sliders not showing up :(

@Jermaine Making grid biggr is not a good idea. There are modst that can let you more settlements.

This is one of those mods that feel so needed and part of the game once you enable it,
that i kind of forget that it isnt actually part of the vanilla experience.
Thank you for your work, Ignis. Hope Odyssey remains compatible.

Is there a big planet vers? More settlements, more chaos, more fun is what im looking for.

The only problem I see is that pollution seems to be based on the full size of a world rather than the tiny planet's size, so 5% pollution will be much greater on a tiny planet. And unfortunately, you can't control the pollution slider more finely than 5% intervals.

Updated for 1.6

Due to fundamental change in how it works, it is not backwards compatible with old saves.

Oh ok, thank you very much! Have a great week!!! ^-^

To decide if they could work together.

WHY???

I need to see Odyssey first.

UPDATE WHEN???????????????????????

Having the same issue as team_on. No idea if it is this mod or not, but this is the page that came up whilst searching for this issue. Apologies if it is indeed not this mods fault.
This screenshot is 30% coverage with default planet size.

This second screenshot is 35% coverage and default size.

Changing either planet size or coverage breaks factions spawning on the map.
Once again, I have no idea if it is this mod or not, but this comments page came up immediately after searching this issue.

You are underestimating how much the slider affects the world size. Diference between 30% and 100% coverage is the same as one slider step.

If you count density per tile count, it would be the same. It is just visualy stretches tile size, so world still looks big. But it is really, really tiny.

> Tiny worlds with low coverage and extra faction mods can have issues with not being able to find a tile for every faction.

Looks like it cause problem with factions settelments even on 100% coverage. I enabled 14 factions with settelments. Have half-size planet and Density on Max. This resulted in spawning ony about 1-3 settelments per faction and most of map empty.

While on 100% map size and Density on Max density it spawn settelment like every 20 tiles.

a mod for increasing the number of factions settlements that spawn that work well paired with this mod?

Perfect. Honestly, I don't really know what the point of vanilla's world generation is if for most games you can't even use the entire globe for performance reasons!

@Foxxy
Niilo's QoL has a setting to generate more rivers

Modding is magic!

Probably because I have to change the offset of the layers of different things on the map.

Small graphical issue when used with ReGrowth's world map beautification setting: Vanilla mountain icons appear underneath the mountain icons from ReGrowth. Any idea why? Really cool mod otherwise. Would take this over globe coverage any day.

I like this mod because it allows me to play on moons instead of planets

@foxxy try the seed "brook"
(im curious to hear if it works on this mod aswell)

Is there a way to make rivers more common? I rolled 20 times and rivers only appeared on 2 planets. I like rivers.

TBH I don't remember what exactly it was and if it is still a problem.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but, how exactly does smaller world map boost performance? Just curious

Стандартная планета со 100% покрытием имеет ЕМНИП около 180000 хексов. Этот мод позволяет иметь меньше хексов при том же % покрытии.

Не понимаю уровень информативности скриншотов...
Выходит что этот мод позволяет растянуть 30% суши на всю планету, делая саму планету относительно меньше?

Yes, one step of the slider makes the world 3 times smaller. If you want enough space for multiple settlements you should only use 1-2 steps.

I mostly ask because I like the idea of this mod but my mods add... quite a few factions, so I'm wondering how much leeway I'd have compared to normal in terms of world size.

So if I'm understanding the way this works correctly, playing on a planet that's a single size step down from normal with 100% coverage would generate a world about equivalent to the normal planet size with 33% coverage? (Not that 33% is an option, of course).

After all, if the world becomes three times smaller, then 100% coverage should be equivalent to 1/3rd of a normal sized planet, presumably, so right around 33%.

when you start and there is fog everywhere i found a mod to fix this issue
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2993678796
it will remove all fog and you can see what you are doing

Yes, a lot of mods are including source code.

Ignis: I noticed today that the source code for this mod is being included in the workshop files being sent to users. Is that intentional?

//CONT//

To sum up the problem: You can make a little planet and save it with the World Presets mod just fine initially, and loading into it locally will work at first... However, as soon as you restart Rimworld, all of the changes you made in the save will default back to a regular planet size with none of the added details.

WP uses RWS files to save all the properties, but it also uses WorldComponents rather than GameComponents. The preset file doesn't get overwritten, it gets completely ignored outright. You can check the comment section for World Presets for the author's long detailed explanation, but to sum it all up - this is most likely something you'll need to do on your end.

Greetings Ignis, I've come to inform you that this mod is incompatible with the "World Presets" mod by Azravos.

I'm in the process of trying to make a collection of "Planet mods" with handcrafted layouts & details. This mod is a massive staple for that mod series, using WorldEdit2.0 I'll be able to create full on 100% coverage worlds without taking up too much world tiles (reducing the save file size) thanks to your mod. The reason behind making these mods is so that I have planets to travel to using SOS2 and so that I can save time creating new playthroughs using planets I'm already familiar with.

World Presets is a mod that allows you to save generated & created worlds as future save file templates, I am not the author of the mod but I do intend to use it as a framework for the upcoming planet mods. WorldEdit2.0's planet template system is currently broken with it leaving the player unable to create new playthroughs without losing their UI.

I tried doing that, it is possible, but it has no benefits so I removed that feature.

I might sound insane, but would it be possible to make a larger world than default?

Well, I guess it can happen when some other mod expects a vanilla count of world tiles and iterates over all of them. Needs support from that other mod side.

Is it possible that this error might be caused by this mod changing the world? https://gist.github.com/HugsLibRecordKeeper/505f16c565d2f8a1133b5708772a3c6f if I remove GeologicalLandforms I still get it

Making duplicate settlements how?

Yeah, workaround was just making duplicate settlements. Thanks though.

It does not override overcrowded option. You just don't realize how small the small world is. Each slider step makes it 3 times smaller (and makes it fit 3 times less settlements).

Only thing I miss is that it only does 1 colony per settlement type, overriding the overcrowded option.

This mod has been a mainstay for me for a while now and I really appreciate the work that went into it. The world feels so much more alive when you can actually interact with all of it in reasonable time. Thank you for the mod!

Super good mod, just the thing I was looking for, ty!

@DocEternal Interesting because I think I verified my files multiple times and that did *not* fix the issue. However, removing Athena and related mods *did* fix it. Also side note in case you're unaware: Rimpy is outdated, I think, and its best to use Rimsort instead
