Factorio Earth deprecated

by hyspeed

**NOTE**: I have released Cities of Earth 2 (https://mods.factorio.com/mod/CitiesOfEarth2) which doesn't need this mod. (I should probably deprecate both of them.) :) Mod that changes the world generation to be a map of Earth. This mod only overrides the generated tiles. Ore, biters, trees and other entities will still be randomly generated.

i Compatibility with Alien Biomes

Hi,
would it be possible to use some of the Tiles from Alien Biomes?
The "Earth" would be looking much cooler when for example countries with a cold climate actually had some Snow in them.

Hi X_Man,
I recently did an update to the parent mod, factrioWorld (https://mods.factorio.com/mod/factorio-world) and looked into that. It is possible to change the terrain types and map to something else.
I don't plan on adding that functionality as I don't have the time to do it. But - like you - I want to add Alien Biomes support to it. (I installed the mod, hoping it would be automatic.)
I recommend you post your request in that mod. Even better - if you can write code - you could modify that mod and I'm sure The Oddler would approve your changes. If you want to learn, we can setup a Discord call and I'll walk you through the code.

Also, I've created Cities of Earth 2, which doesn't need Factorio Earth.

thanks,
jon

Oh okay.
I am writing mods myself, if I have some spare time I will look into it.
But I want to complete my mod first before I look into the code of factorio world.

Have a good day!
