seems to be breaking terraforming cost (with this mod = 0)
without terraforming cost is fine
redownloaded mod in case of i break something unintentionally still same result

@Fetfrumos96
Well, before I declare compatibility with 3.2, I need to:
0. No longer be burned out on Stellaris
1. Check what changed in terraforming definitions in both 3.2 and Planetary Diversity
2. Write a code generator based on this
3. Test it in game

That's gonna take a while, sorry.

There is no descriptor file. So the launcher swears. Suddenly it will fix it. Please, is it possible to fix your mod, the mod does not want to work correctly in the new version 3.2

Please, is it possible to fix your mod, the mod does not want to work correctly in the new version 3.2

If I am going to update this, I would want to automate it (I got tired of doing it by hand :P).
And I am still kind of burnt out on Stellaris for now (I'm catching up on other projects), so it may be a while.

PD added some new planet types.
If you have time, could you please add them to the patch too?

updated？

any plan to update?

@Tyrgalon Since Glavius is currently awaiting an update for 3.0 we can probably assume not.

Any idea if this is compatible with 3.0?

@Aeternuslee Sure they are compatible; they touch completely unrelated sets of files.

@Adventurer Sorry for the delay. Without going into too much IRL stuff, I am suffering a severe lack of motivation in Stellaris right now. There is a decent chance that I won't get to this until 2.9, where I will have to update all my mods.

@TechSY730 Hey quick question. Is this mod used with your other mod ""!(Patch): Starnet AI - Planetary Diversity - Guilli's Planet Modifiers Patch"" or does it also cover the other mods features? if you are meant to use both does load order matter?

Oh boy, did PD updoot again?
Ok, will take a look this weekend.

Just giving a notice to add support for:
pc_aeolian
pc_duneforest
pc_tepid
pc_supercon

...when you have the time.

Yes, this will work with Starnet AI. The description used to say that but it got cutoff because the Stellaris mod uploader likes to do that, and I don't have permission to edit the description to fix that. (Valve, why can't contributors edit description if they are allowed to edit change notes?)

Sry to ask but, is it work with Starnet AI?

Update has been sent to @tmonahan23.

I'll see about filling in that description that must have gotten cutoff

Ok, we are updated now

And neither will players actually.

And heads up, this may take longer then usual, because:
1. Acid planets were added as a new exotic planet type in the companion mod, and those take more work to fit in the framework
2. I am currently dealing with a medical issue (nothing dangerous, but it is disruptive)

Apologies in advance

You mean the AI won't be able to terraform to/from Rogue planets until this is updated, right?

Thanks for your time BTW.

This will need an update for the new Rogue planet class. This mod should work, it is just you may be missing terraforming options to/from Rogue planets until this is updated.

There is a new Planetary Diversity update, does this still works with it?

@Old Man I think part of the description got cutoff.
This mod builds off of the framework Glavius wrote, but can work even if it isn't enabled.

And no, neither the vanilla AI nor plain Planetary Diversity allow the AI to terraform. This let's them so it

and does the AI terraform without this mod if you aren't using glavius?

In the required items it doesn't list Glavius but in the description and the comments it sems that it is needed. Is glavious needed?

@-Phase- If you are using the official launcher lower mods take priority. As such, it should be:
<closer to the top>
Planetary Diversity
New Worlds
<non compatibility patches>
[THIS MOD]
<closer to the bottom>

If you are using the unofficial mod manager "Paradox Mod Manager", then the order is reversed, as there higher mods take priority.

Also, use only one of this mod and the New Worlds version of this mod. The New Worlds version contains everything this mod does and also the logic specific to New Worlds. If you insist on using both mods, put the New Worlds one lower (or whatever direction is greater priority in your launcher)

Where are this mod and the !!Planetary Div - New Worlds - AI Terraforming Patch supposed to go on the load order?

Yeah, the description could use an update. You can still use this with Glavius, and Glavius will still use it (but let me know if you see a lot of extra lag; I may need to throttle how often the "deep" population scan is done)

Also, I am working on adding Coral, Mud, and Veld planet types. It's just that my weekend was slammed.

Is the description outdated?

As far as I know Glavius is not abandoned anymore.

Do I need a different compatibility mod or this one for the two now?
I am a bit confused...

Sorry for the delay, but I am planning on updating for the newest PD. It's just been busy IRL.

Amazingly neither PD nor vanilla 2.7 made any changes to terraforming, so no changes needed here

update need? hope it needn't.

Paradox hasn't made any changes to terraforming files in 2.6, so no update unless PD makes terraforming changes in its 2.6 update.

Oops, forgot to add change notes. Will do so now

May I ask what update was made Nov. 11?

Yes, this also works with Starnet. Starnet AI didn't really do much with the terraforming AI weights.

Will this also work with Starnet?

@Syntax No, safe to turn on or off in an existing game

do I need a new game for this to work?

I discovered that Glavius' approach to surveying pops was just straight up broken, so a new method has been implemented. This new method might cause more lag in late game (my tests were inconclusive); please leave a comment if it does for you.

Makes it so the AI makes intelligent decisions about terraforming. It uses Glavius' framework that he created for it (though as I noted previously, it no longer requires Glavius, but rather is inspired by it)

What does this mod fix exactly?

Now that Glavius' AI is retired for now, this mod no longer requires Glavius. It will integrate with it if it is present, but will still function without it.

Nice! Thanks!

Yep, looks fine. I'll ask about getting the description updated (for some reason, contributors can't update the description of a mod...)

I'll take a look, but it should be, unless he changed around how that mod's terraforming candidate modifier works.

Is this patch compatible with the GPM 2.3 that just got released?

@Spectre No, use only one of this version and the new worlds version of the patch.

If I'm using New World mod and the correspoding terraforming patch, do I need this one too?
