Starmap: Nexuz Star System

by Tserup

Don't worry about new planets making the star map increasingly chaotic. A new star system: Nexuz and an interstellar route has been added to the starmap, incorporating planets from multiple mods. The star system distance can now be customized.

b Problem with "Metal and stars"

1 year, 1 month ago

If you have another planet mod installed (https://mods.factorio.com/mod/metal-and-stars) it screws up path to Tenebris and Maraxis, making them super weird and bypassing the usual route to Nexuz.
(Also why are these two gated behind thas mod anyways?)
Not sure if if this can be fixed on yours or planet maker's side, but I decided to report anyway.

It depends on the final decision of Metal and Stars. This is a possible direction for change, but it will take some more time.

Did you show this to metal and stars author already?

Yes, there is actually a test version available. You can find it in my mod list, although it lacks important flight routes. We are working towards that direction.

I think 5forsilver (the author of Metal and Stars) is almost done.

Well I see the problem lol
Just got my platform stranded on Neumann V cause there's no tech to discover the system yet

Some new tech should be added to discover connections between systems
Hmm, I wonder if I can try to do it?

Also, May I ask, or is it a secret, what the heck are the green cubes? They are in the planet list but don't appear everywhere.
Is it a secret? Should we prepare for Borg invasion?

If all goes well, Metal and Stars will update with these features in the next version. Since he is doing it himself, everything will align better with his own plans. So if you urgently need this feature, I suggest modifying one for yourself without releasing it.

Haha, I can only say that they currently play a very important role, even affecting the balance of the entire universe.

But rest assured, they won't have any impact on you.

Hey, I actually did it!
I added techs to unlock redstar connections and also made neumann v discovery require researching system connection first!

Here's the link to the version:

I don't see any harm in releasing an extra addon. After all, it's user who decides what experience they want and what not.
It might get obsolete in the future, sure, but who cares.
