Replaced Height Maps for Alien

Did you know that the EarthLike planet and the Alien planet share the same height maps?

This means both planets have the exact same mountains and valleys, even the same lakes.

As someone who likes to explore the planets and GPS-mark any interesting landscape formation, I had to do something about it. So I during the Christmas season in 2022 I started writing my own procedural height map generator. After some detours into lake, height map, ore, biome and climate zone modding it's finally finished.

The landscapes in this mod are based on random Simplex noise with some hydraulic erosion applied to them. They won't look as interesting or realistic as ones that were made with more professional tools. It was still an interesting learning experience and I wanted to share the end result.

What this mod changes:

• Replaced the height maps of the Alien planet with procedurally generated ones.
  
• Replaced the lake definitions to match the new height maps.
  
• Created custom climate zone definitions to prevent those horizontal landscape transitions you see from space.

The ore positions are not changed.
This mod is not compatible with other mods that replace the planet data files.
You can add this mod to existing saves if you never visited the Alien planet.
Scenarios like 'Easy Start Alien' will not work because the base will not spawn on the ground.

The tools I used to create this mod are available on my github page on
github.com/michi84o/SpaceEngineersTools

I won't make any compatibility patches for other planet mods. If you want to use my files, feel free to use them.

Here is one exception, Better Stone:
