ORIGINAL MOD DESCRIPTION (Qon): https://mods.factorio.com/mod/NextGenEvolution Nests absorbing pollution causes evolution to increase. An alternative to pollution produced causing evolution. Change regular evolution settings in map generation settings (if you don't want regular evolution also) and absorbtion evolution in mod settings. Doesn't impact UPS. Default values are balanced to allow you to turn vanilla pollution evolution factor off without changing difficulty.
2.0.0 PORT DESCRIPTION (GTrista): https://mods.factorio.com/mod/NextGenEvolution-Port Mod does NOT work with Space Age, The evolution factor changes are only on Nauvis.
SPAWNER COMPATIBILITY DESCRIPTION (Vismark): This is a quick compatibility patch I threw together which should allow evolution to progress even when modded spawners, such as those from Rampant, soak up pollution. Should work for most mods, although I have not yet tested it thoroughly. If Qon or GTrista add mod compatibility, I will remove this fork. If anyone finds an incompatibility with a modded spawner, let me know. I won't add any features beyond basic compatability; I am not an experienced coder. This is still (probably) not compatible with space-age planets. I haven't yet checked.
