WP's New Worlds (4.1)

This mod is a bloat-free way to add new planets to your galaxy. There are nearly 100 of them! New worlds has no balance changes and very few moving pieces. A good choice for a Vanilla+ modlist.



There are no origins. No civics. No traditions. No arcologies. No species traits. No mega-structures. No decisions. No resources. No story events. No new mechanics. No weird balance decisions.

Just New Worlds!

The new worlds are themed in what I think is the simplest approach, which will be familiar to users of other planet mods already on the workshop: Each planet class (E.g Alpine, Arid, Tropical) now can be found in several new variants.

For example there are now Coral, Whirlpool and Depths worlds, all of which are varieties of Ocean World.

There are Junk, Irradiated, Graveyard and Shadow Worlds, all of which are varieties of Tomb world.

(To name a few.)

The planets are skins: In-truth they are vanilla planets with vanilla game-play/habitability/terraforming. The only change is a flag to have them display custom art. The worlds exist to provide new flavour, themes and richer storytelling as the story of your galaxy unfolds, nothing more.

Petrified forests, bio-luminescent jungles, giant mushrooms, epic canyons, rich safaris, sprawling webs, snowy forests, haunted glades, flowering fields, there is a lot to find.


Let me know which ones you like or that your aliens live on!

• All the new worlds each feature three unique interface elements.
  
• First, a scrolling image of the surface of the planet behind your governor and pops in the side view.
  
• Second, a different artwork for the lower area where you build districts
  
• Third, unique backgrounds for all your buildings.

• Worlds are also given their own physical planet model appearance.
  
• Base textures are 2k quality - familiar from the "Immersive Galaxy" series!
  
• For example, the "Sanguine" world, with blood-red seas, will have actual red seas visible from orbit.
  
  
• Planets in this mod have also variable lengths of day.
  
• Some spin very fast, some much slower, some spin clockwise, some counterclockwise!
  
  
• Also including new textures for other celestial bodies such as molten worlds (there are 75 gas giants!).
  
• You can read about IG here and find further information about how it is used in this mod in the "Compatibility" thread below.

• Some worlds exhibit "Extreme" or otherwise persistent weather.
  
• These weathers shape the planet and are a huge part of their identity.
  
• Examples include the Tempest World, with raging waters, the Lightning World, with echoing thunder, the Mist World, shrouded in a dense layer of fog.
  
• There are more, but I won't spoil them all.
  
• These worlds have unique names and cannot be weather manipulated (until you terra-form.)
  
  
• All other worlds can experience regular weathers.
  
• You can have a "Canyon Fog World" or a "Canyon Dust World" or use weather manipulation technology to create a "Canyon Rain World" and so on.

• City landscapes are largely vanilla in appearance, this means they are always high quality and are highly compatible with all city sets (including modded), which is not always true for planet variety mods.
  
• There are two fancy city background environments from Piets "Uncharted Worlds".

As with all my mods, full documentation is available on this public spreadsheet.[docs.google.com] It lists all the worlds in the mod so far, their implementation progress, and some new types I'd like to add in future releases.

• This is a direct addon to "Planet View" and requires it!
  
• I made the custom home-world select screen with UIOD in mind. (Not technically required, but looks good to have. Load it above this.)
  
• For more recommendations and compatibility advice check my collection at the top of this page.

• Many thanks to PD, RS:NF, ATW, and any other planet mods of the past who have each inspired me in their own ways.
  
• To the long missing Dwaine for "Immersive Galaxy"
  
• Piet for "Uncharted Worlds"
  
• And to that guy who worked with me on many of the planet descriptions!
