Hi does this still work and also are you still supporting it as I want a good scenario to play on and this looks good

Update: So yes it was the Mars lander that spawned inside the planet. I chilled in the lander till it hit the "underside" of the planet and broke, I lived and jetpacked out of the planet. The damaged lander however, stayed in the planet and I had to delete it with admin stuff.

I am having an odd issue. The pod spawns INSIDE the planet, sending me flinging through the inside of a very large planet for a very long time, just going faster and faster till I inevitably smash into a voxel... I belive I chose the Mars Pod.

Been playing on this world in space for a while. I noticed that the asteroids only spawn basic materials, and that the moon has everything that the asteroids have plus gold. I'm dealing with a major cobalt shortage at the moment. Do cobalt, uranium, platinum, and magnesium only spawn on Agaris, or have I just been incredibly unlucky?

Is the linked map accurate to this seed? Found the Cobalt Tundra Island, and it seems like the only matching island nearby is the icecap

It doesn't matter that much. But I discourage it
[ARMCO] Fyrebird721 31 Mar, 2022 @ 4:01pm 
okay, after providing someone with an answer to their own question, i've actually got a q of my own: is economy *supposed* to be turned off in the various versions of AaW?

just wanting to make sure
[ARMCO] Fyrebird721 31 Mar, 2022 @ 3:55pm 
@PhilSwiftHere21 alt+f10, enable "access all terminals", just remember to turn it back off afterwards

Hi, I just wanted to know: would I have to drill deep enough on the mainland of Agaris to reach the water plane?

Or maybe I even have to dig an access / tunnel to the sea or lake or river so that my base in the desert gets enough water?
PhilSwiftHere21 14 Jan, 2022 @ 10:59am 
Many of the buildings are inaccessible without hacking the doors, i.e. the Contract Office and Apartment buildings, is there a way to access these or am I just being dumb?

None of the bases are spawning in on the map. I'm playing the Industrial Overhaul mod version of the AaW map with some additional mods (mostly AQL and like mods). Any thoughts why the NPC faction bases are not spawning in?

@CaptainArthur love the map, just not really my playstyle. Do you have something like this, with randomly placed ores instead of default locations?
DeathShaper 20 Dec, 2021 @ 8:48am 
@Kerry Freeman, Maybe stop complaining. There are people who like to play this way, and people who don't. You don't have to complain in multiple comments to the creator, because just you don't like something in this world. I get it, when you say you've found a bug. But these comments of you?

For instance: " I spawned somewhere with a lot of snow. No iron, nickel or silicon anywhere nearby" After that, complaining about its hard to find your way around, and you need a default start with those items nearby. Creator gave you an option for a easy start, and even a map. Both you don't like so you start complaining more. Well uhm... no offense, but maybe use your brain. Saying its impossible to play, and you can't figure out how the map works. Its not that hard if you have a detailed map like the creator gave. Just look around, search which ores are nearby. Fly up, see what the island or land around you look like, go back down and open the map. Surely you can remember something, right?

Would this work on Xbox and is there a version with ice where the water would be? If so could you possibly upload it to mod.io? I'm playing this on pc at the moment but would love to use it on console too. Pity we can't have the water mod and IO to add to it.

Oddly enough I seen this mod streamed on Twitch, even thought about streaming it myself. The twitch stream didn't really show any of these issues. Maybe something with your own mods is throwing it off? After all mods can conflict at times and affect each other in weird ways. As a example when I was testing out hover and repulsor lift mods, I found out a Star Wars style repulsor lift one tends to crash the game if in the same mod list as one of the hover engine ones. But on it's own it works fine.
Kerry 7 Dec, 2021 @ 3:03pm 
There are no landmarks visible on your map.
CaptainArthur  [author] 7 Dec, 2021 @ 12:32pm 
You can use the map to locate where you are. Look in which biome you are, and look around for landmarks (like mountains, rivers ,oceans etc.). You can work it out from there. That is how most people do it. And trust me it isn't impossible or unplayable
Kerry 7 Dec, 2021 @ 12:18pm 
Respawn over and over again using nothing but luck to find my way? Nope, won't happen in a million years.

Also, utilizing the command tools only helps if you know where you are.

Yes, I'm aware of your map out-of-game. But since it doesn't tell you where YOU are on the map IN game, it's useless.

To be clear, your map is great for finding ores and plotting where you want to go, but it's no good as an in-game Global Positioning System map, which is what I'd need to make use of your world and navigate to a specific starter position using the Admin command tools.

I'm going to have to declare your world "Unplayable", at least personally. Don't know how other people can play it through using just stone as a way to gain iron, nickel and silicon.
CaptainArthur  [author] 7 Dec, 2021 @ 12:09pm 
btw refresh until it works
CaptainArthur  [author] 7 Dec, 2021 @ 12:09pm 
You are aware of this map right?

''I want to start out in a drop pod like on this world, but end up with a guaranteed landing on the island with all three basic resources, and nothing more.''

Respawn till you get one or use the command tools to move to one
Kerry 7 Dec, 2021 @ 11:44am 
CaptainArthur: Nope.

Your linked world, spawns us in a premade base. And it doesn't have the other planets in the solar system, it's just Agaris. That's not what I want, since it ruins the game by giving you everything you need. There's also no way to explore beyond Agaris since there's no other planets.

There's no challenge to that start, there's no reason to build a base or even create new ships since you have everything you could ever need right there. Might as well play Creative Mode if you're going to link that start.

I want to start out in a drop pod like on this world, but end up with a guaranteed landing on the island with all three basic resources, and nothing more.
Kerry 6 Dec, 2021 @ 4:32pm 
We need a world with a fixed player spawn,

I ask because last time I tried this mod I spawned somewhere with a lot of snow. No iron, nickel or silicon anywhere nearby. Makes the world virtually unplayable.

Love the world, hate the spawns. Never start on the island with just Iron, Nickel and Silicon, only in places with stone.
ryans610 26 Oct, 2021 @ 4:33am 
I also try to use a respawn mod that is a wheel truck, and it spawn without wheel, which is weird, but not a big deal.
Still love this planet mod tho, great work, can't wait for the crash start option.
Squidtank 23 Oct, 2021 @ 12:02pm 
Any idea why the respawn ships start upside down-ish on Agaris? It's just on Agaris, other worlds are fine. It's not a big deal since the default pod can flip over with the parachute, but using mods with respawn ships seems to cause them to spawn upside down too, at a slight angle. Also for some reason removes wheels and turrets and such. Anyway, not a big deal, respawning is for losers anyway!
Aros 19 Oct, 2021 @ 10:41am 
Gotcha, cheers.
CaptainArthur  [author] 19 Oct, 2021 @ 7:56am 
No. New game --> workshop --> [AaW] Star System Start
Aros 19 Oct, 2021 @ 7:46am 
So this basically works like: New game --> star system start --> sort needed mods (this included) --> I spawn in roaded agaris if I choose earthlike spawn?
Jhitereptar 18 Oct, 2021 @ 1:33pm 
okay. Awesome, thank you for the explanation!! Look forward to the adventure!
CaptainArthur  [author] 18 Oct, 2021 @ 1:24pm 
It is the vanilla star system. Only thing is that earth-like is replaced by Agaris with roads
Jhitereptar 18 Oct, 2021 @ 1:19pm 
But is it one planet or the whole star system as the name would imply?
CaptainArthur  [author] 18 Oct, 2021 @ 1:18pm 
@striker Yes, keep in mind that it needs to be IO with roads
lloydsnew 18 Oct, 2021 @ 7:49am 
this is a world mod where the NPC are in bases and flying around the ore is in larger spots but farther apart and on islands there are friendly NPCs and not so friendly you will run into flying and ship on the water
raymondsims2 17 Oct, 2021 @ 9:00pm 
same question
Jhitereptar 17 Oct, 2021 @ 8:06pm 
lol Nice. What is it?
