Hi! BHakluyt here, Engineer #3356201846 signing in:

It seems my makeshift computer only has clear transmission on the full moon.

I see Factorio Bot tried to sent you a bunch of corrupted messages earlier. Apologies for that, its always busy in its shack. We were taking a quick breather with the ...

I just updated to 2.1 and have tried starting 3 different games...

I didn't see ANY ore on the preview map.

On all three I only see the starting ore in game. Now I have not made a long journey looking for distant ore, but Radar coverage hasn't reviled any new ore deposits.

On the third game after ...

For me the main problem are orbits and space connections:
- unfortunatly space connection curve selection is actually unsolvable with planetslib currently, if we could at least have a way to define our own curve
- for orbit I proposed that planetslib would get shipped with a set of pre generated ...

This would have been to allow planetslib to render moons instead of visible planets in space, as that mod is basically deprecated.

I did not see anything relevant in the api, but it would be nice if we could display a planet's space rendering from lua. Mainly to cover for one feature of visible planets in space, where it also displays planetslib moons around the planet you currently orbit.
Also to let Cerys use those graphics ...

i would like to up about two thing I think would be interesting:

Improve Wire Rendering The idea is that wire would get rendered by shader instead of squeezing a sprite (which in a case where wire are straight make them strictly one pixel large)
Setting Parent Body for a SpaceLocation This would ...

It only spawns on certain tiles, so the terrain and ore generation have to meet up in order to spawn it. Sometimes you get unlucky and you get none even on a planet/moon with a high spawn chance.

I'm playing a standard SE/K2 playthrough on 2.0. The closest moon to Nauvis is supposed to have a large amount of Cryonite on it (231% frequency, 86% size, 92% richness), but after scanning the entire planet, there are no cryonite deposits. It doesn't appear to have frozen terrain, so maybe that's ...

It would be nice if the localized name of a planet could be overwritten in the control stage.
Ideally it should also take priority over platform names, but since those can already be edited in the control stage there is no immediate need.

This would allow mods to deliberately change the icon of a ...

when trying to hide a surface from the remote view starmap the only real option currently is to mark the surface as hidden.

hidden surfaces still show alerts (which in my opinion is a good thing), however the alert center loses the ability to navigate to specific alerts on said surface.

Are there plans for expanding on this feature in 2.1? Currently if the boolean is true a orbit ring is drawn for the space location / planet but it is around the star. Would it be possible to instead draw the orbit ring around what the space location / planet is orbiting? like a moon, or a planet ...

Is there any mod that accomplishes that? I don't want more recipes, not more tech, not more buildings, I want to build something meaningful with the existing stuff.


I suppose the definition of meaningful allow very different mod to fit your request. It's been 2 weeks i'm trying to build a giant ...

Thank you for creating such an amazing expansion with Space Age. We all really appreciate how much you have put into making it even better with all the bug fixes and the gift of a 2.1 release to make it even better. While you might want to try something new, I think you probably would be amazed by ...

I think docking spaceships in Space Exploration mod - is likely the most interesting feature that hooks me up to SE.
Hovewer I found myself struggling between
