How do I survive a Freezing planet?

This works better for vanilla SB. If you want more mods that add stars, truespace fixes standalone is probably what you want.

How does this work with Ashspeaker's House of Peace mod? It does add a new planet type.

This isn't a UI mod at all (as the first sentence of the description says).

The screenshots are just from an older version of Starbound, where it's easier to see what this does to the stars/planet layout.

Does this exist but it's purely the UI?

Man it's crazy to think this mod is so old, and it's still being updated. There are mods like cutebound and others which have last seen activity being like 2 to four years ago. Yet this ones still got activity. Good mod.

@Puritan Prince of Pain
This mod has updated far more recently than Starbound itself, so how could this be outdated?

If you're thinking this is an interface mod... sorry, it doesn't do that. It does exactly what the description tells you it does.

Does not work, dont even bother installing it. Its fully outdated now.

this mod is so old ppl now think it adds the old ui lol

@DeadDankDreamMemes

The UI in the screenshots isn't from the mod, it's from an older version of Starbound

I don't think it's working with my game or any mods I'm using. It's just the same UI, but the stars are labeled as in the mod

Would be cool to add some new star types like Black Holes and Neutron Stars and white dwarfs and things to make places that have more dark planets and radiation words... but this seems so cool so far!

ohhhh and infinite rock to

but if you got a 100X planets size like me it can take a while to get to the core . make sure to use telaporters if you can get one and set up a base at the core 100X size means you got infinite dirt anyways so its kida redundant but its cool once you do it

desert planets arnt necessary with FU just get lava at your core and get tungsten in the centrifuge or get tungsten from dirt . yes it will take a while but i got alot just from dirt and especially with the upgraded sifter and crusher and for moons you can just get the fuel at the shop and oil from the silt

Truespace DOES work with Arcana, you might just get unlucky with rng. First universe I genned I couldn't find Arcana planets at all, after that I can find them in stars tucked in certain areas of the galaxy.

the radioactive planets are bugged and dont damage you over time even if you dont wear an EPP, please fix

Is this not compatible with Arcana? I'm not seeing any of their planets.

starbound compatible?

Because it prevents extended story planets from generating, so it's definitely not compatible.

But I suppose I should ask: why do you think so? Having issues?

@Mabra
Yes it is, despite what you say.

It's not compatible with extended story, despite what the description says.

sand.

I really like the old UI tbh

It's just an old screenshot. The older UI (SB 1.2) showed the generation effect better.

Doing a mod for the old UI might be possible, but you gotta deal with things they added like encounters in a solar system. The old one isn't very optional for things like that, just planets.

@Licorice yo same I literally just popped by this page to try and find a source for it, any luck? Does anyone have a link or something? or is this permanently lost to time?

softlock speedrun

I'm asking here cuz I can't find it for myself, I know this mod doesn't change the UI to be like the screenshots, but would anyone happen to know of a mod that brings the old navigation UI back?

Is there a mod that would still allow Arcana stars to spawn seperately?

Lava *does* require the Iron Centrifuge, btw.

For Tungsten? Crushing, Sifting, and Lava Centrifuging. Just be aware you will need a few stacks of goods to make sufficient numbers of what you lack. Go pick up the mod that lets you double bars per ore if you get frustrated.

Hope this helps! Remember, if you are lost or stuck, the Lab Directory will save your hide (but you have to have the tools present in-game for it to register and sort through what is possible with what materials).

For those of you wondering about FU: the mod author is not lying when they say an unfamiliar or unwary player will be soft-locked in the first system. I spawned with no worlds that had sand natively (no silicon; no oil), nor worlds under threat level 5 that had tungsten natively.

However, if you know how the various processes work, you can get by this with a little effort.
First off, get by hook or crook the ability to unlock the trees until you get basic electricity with the first electric machines. Set them up with *two* alternator generators (you can link up the crusher to two of them for the needed 6W). Go digging, and if you find sand underground, great! If not, you can crush almost every stone type you find into sand...and sometimes it will yield silicon that way.

Is this mod Compatible with Arcana?

After trying it out i dont know if i love it or hate it. Is cool since you have to plan more your trips or you might end up around a bunch of stars that do not have the tier that you are looking for, but on the other side tier are all over the place now and it gets very confusing

Sorry, I forgot to ask another important question, is this also compatible with non-FU mods that add new star systems such as Project Ancient Cosmos? (which adds black hole systems)

Hi, I was wondering if this mod is compatible with a mod called Maple32?
I'm Asking because I was thinking of playing the game again with a fresh universe with this mod in mind, and I'm not sure if Maple32's planets would generate properly with it, if at all.

@Protein Professional You can get tungsten via centrifuging lava in the Iron Centrifuge. All you need Iron, Wood, Copper, and Sand. Sand can still be an issue if desert planet doesn't spawn, But there are also alternative ways to get the Silicon and Glass.

The only issue with this is that it can possibly brick a character on Frackin' Universe if a Tier II, or survivable Tier III or IV planet doesn't happen to exist in the system. It can softlock a save since you may not have access to Tungsten at all.

I wonder if this works with Universe Generation Overhaul Reborn...
I guess I'll find out :)

[disclaimer: the following information may not be accurate because this pertains to info from years ago and may not be relevant to the current way the game handles saves] If you want to hazard a try of this mode without torching your normal save, you will want to make a copy of the following area: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Starbound\storage (or wherever you have it saved to) and then you can install this mod. If you want to remove it, delete the mod (by Unsubscribing), delete the files from the above link, then take the files you saved from before and place them back in their rightful spot (if it says something like "storage (copy)" or "storage(1)" you will need to remove that so that the files can be read properly.

From experience from another similarly behaving mod, since the game generate solar system information as you explore out from where you start, anywhere you have not explored (I.E., scrolled to in the galactic map) should generate using the mod's calculation and all places already rendered will remain the same. ...now you may have to go a very far distance out before you find the properly affected maps, so be prepared to burn up some (or alot) of fuel to get there.

does it work with existing saves this mod looks really cool but I dont want to obliterate my universe

Can you update it please so it can work.

its a nice mod but the ui really makes it a must so hopefully that gets fixed soon

As the description states, this isn't a mod to change the UI. Those are simply older screenshots (pre 1.3 Starbound) and the changes this mod makes show up better in those.

same

god this mod looks so good but idk why it isnt working i still have regular ui

@Dawgstruction
Yes the compatibility is baked into Arcana itself.

Does this mod work with Arcanna?
