Can you write the same mod to generate the Earth's landscape on planet Earth?
Mod - Realistic Celestial Universe Fork
Generation should only be on Earth. Standard on Navius.

Can I Fork? I just already corrected the code.

sure man

let me discuss this with theoddler first

Yeah well. I'll wait. Thanks for the reply. It's just that your mod is perfect for planet Earth.

I would love to have this feature for one of my mod (ERM - redarmy). Theoddler said he may not be able to work on it for now.

If you have the correct code, may be you can open a pull request for him to review on github?

https://mods.factorio.com/mod/factorio-world/discussion/678c148cacee13ca25c5bd5f

my github is unavailable. Replace one word there.

If you have the corrected code, I can help you push a PR to theoddler's github.

I saw the discussion with TheOddler, and i will admit, its a pretty cool idea. I dont mind overriding Nauvis as Earth, im not very experienced with coding, but I will find a way. Im not sure how to navigate the whole github thing haha,

My fork mod for which I want Earth generation - https://mods.factorio.com/mod/real-starry-universe-Fork

In the archive with your mod there is a file - control.lua
Look for the code in it:
--Chunk generation code
local function on_chunk_generated(event)
if (event.surface.name ~= "nauvis") then
return
end

And just change it to:
--Chunk generation code
local function on_chunk_generated(event)
if (event.surface.name ~= "earth") then
return
end

Save and post the update. All. Now when landing on planet Earth there will be this generation.

After you post a new version or mod, I will add it as a dependency to my mod.

Released the mod with the changed code, hopefully i did it right haha. One day ill change the actual graphics for 2.0 to make it look like earth from the space map.

SergMonsterBro's code work only if you have the planet earth created in data stage. When someone doesn't have a mod to create planet earth, that change prevents the earth generation on nauvis.

Well, with the fork of the mod that I wrote, the Earth looks like the Earth in space.

Well, I don’t know how to do it differently.

Well, you can specify that it only works with Realistic Celestial Universe and Realistic Celestial Universe Fork
