Star System Generator

Randomly Create Entire Star Systems

This tool creates random star systems for your game. I find having to manually place modded planets in my game takes a lot of the fun out of the discovery of the star system, and no matter where I place planets I feel like I'm either cheesing to make it too easy or too hard. So I built this tool.

Bugs, Suggestions, Questions, and Comments -> Discord

While I appreciate the feedback and suggestions that arrive via comments here, I prefer to use a platform where I can provide superior communication and interaction. For this, I have created a Discord server where I can troubleshoot, give technical advice, and have discussions. Steam comments get lost to time, but Discord histories can be searched and referenced. So comments have been disabled. Go to the Discord.

Quick Start

[olist] [*]Start an "Empty Space" game ** [*]Open the chat and use the command /ssg random to generate a completely random star system [*]Save your game [*](optional) Remove the mod [*](optional) Start your game with a bang (Damaged Spawnships) [*]Have fun discovering the star system! [/olist]

To "disable Economy" while creating your game map, you must do __all five__ of these things: * Set Global Encounters to 0 (this is a slider that goes from 0 to 2) * Turn off Cargo Ships * Turn off Encounters * Turn off Planetary Encounters * Turn off Economy Once your planets are placed, save your game, and turn on whatever you want, and the Economy stations should be placed correctly (on planet surfaces and in orbit). Respawning near an Economy station should now provide your starting Datapad as well.

[h1]Generating star systems can take several minutes. During this time your game will appear frozen. It is not frozen. It is creating a lot of data.[/h1] When this happens, be patient. The game is generating the voxel data for all the planets and moons.
