Does anyone know how to change what building is made when a colony is made?

Does anyone know how to change what building is made when a colony is made? If so I would like to know how. Thank you.

I don't know if the default building itself can be changed like that BUT you could probably replace it with an event upon being colonized (or when it starts being colonized too I suppose)

Both of these are on_actions

You could try over-riding the 00_building.txt entry. Keep the key, over-ride the localisation, over-ride the icon. Theoretically the hard-code only cares about the building_ key.

Lie, mid-game?

I suspect the thing which makes a colony shelter drop is

capital = yes
level = 0
[/code]


Anything else which is a level 0 capital would therefore also be a potential initial building. You'd just need to change the conditions so that only 1 of them is a valid choice at any given time (so if the alternative one dropped on a tech, have a not ={ techname} as the pre-req on the colony shelter and techanem as a requirement for the replacement).

If that's not in, then yeah, use events.

so if I only wanted a building one of the buildings on a Arctic planet then I would put:

capital = yes
level = 0
is_planet_class = Arctic

capital = yes
level = 0
is_planet_class = Arctic

Well, is_planet_class would have to go in the allow field, but yeah.

Would this work?

building_asteroid_base_capital_0 = {
    base_buildtime = 180

    cost = {
    }

    planet_modifier = {
        pop_ethic_shift = 0.10
    }

        potential = {
            planet = {
                OR = {
                    is_planet_class = pc_asteroid_base
                        NOT = {
                            has_building = building_colony_shelter
                            has_building = building_capital_1
                            has_building = building_capital_2
                            has_building = building_capital_3
                            has_building = building_asteroid_base_capital_1
                            has_building = building_asteroid_base_capital_2
                            has_building = building_asteroid_base_capital_3
                            }
                    }
                }

            }

    planet_unique = yes
    capital = yes
    level = 0

    produced_resources = {
        food = 2
        minerals = 2
    }

    upgrades = {
        building_asteroid_base_capital_1
    }

        prerequisites = {
        "tech_asteroid_base"
    }

}

Not quite, you've included it in the OR ={} so it'll allow it if it is an asteroid OR if it doesn't have any of the buildings listed - so basically, any planet would be allowed it. This would be what you're looking for:

building_asteroid_base_capital_0 = {
    base_buildtime = 180

    cost = {
    }

    planet_modifier = {
        pop_ethic_shift = 0.10
    }

        potential = {
            planet = {
                        is_planet_class = pc_asteroid_base       
                        NOT = {
                            has_building = building_colony_shelter
                            has_building = building_capital_1
                            has_building = building_capital_2
                            has_building = building_capital_3
                            has_building = building_asteroid_base_capital_1
                            has_building = building_asteroid_base_capital_2
                            has_building = building_asteroid_base_capital_3
                            }
                }

            }
    planet_unique = yes
    capital = yes
    level = 0

   
   
    produced_resources = {
        food = 2
        minerals = 2
    }

    upgrades = {
        building_asteroid_base_capital_1
    }

        prerequisites = {
        "tech_asteroid_base"
    }

}

You'd also need to add not = { is_planet_class = pc_asteroid_base } into the colony shelter, of course.
