This mod just adds the gas giant biome into normal planet rotation. The gas planets that generate in normal star systems behave a bit more like normal planets in that they are normal planet sized and usually don't have moons but are otherwise the same as the giant ones from vanilla.
There are a couple slightly different versions of the mod:
- Gas Planets Everywhere All allows gas giants to replace any planet. This option will cause all planets to have their biomes reshuffled but allows for gas planets to have moons, with the caveat that sometimes the game will generate gas moons. This version makes gas planets fairly common, you'll run into them every few systems.
- Gas Planets Everywhere Primes Only limits gas giants to only replace prime planets. This option will maintain the existing generation of the majority of planets in the game but will only generate gas planets at the outer edges of the star systems. With this option, moons will never generate as gas giants at the cost of the added gas giants not having moons themselves. This option makes the gas planets a fair bit more rare than the All version does.
Installation and compatibility:
Download the .zip of the version you want and extract its contents into No Man's Sky/GAMEDATA/MODS. Make sure that in the No Man's Sky/Binaries/SETTINGS/GCMODSETTINGS.MXML file that the option DisableAllMods is set to False.
This mod will conflict with anything that edits METADATA/SIMULATION/SOLARSYSTEM/BIOMES/BIOMELISTPERSTARTYPE.MBIN
