[MOD] Floating Cities: Colonize Gas Giants

[dosaki]

Hi everyone,

I've made a mod which lets you colonize Gas Giants by building floating cities on the atmosphere!

It's a Society tech and needs colonization tech to be researched first.
Gas Giants still have 0% habitability and this should be raised with the other techs.

I've published it in the Steam Workshop.

Note: This still lets you play Ironman, but I am not sure if that's intented.

I'll update the graphics when I can. At the moment, I'm using free to reuse/modify images.

Please tell me if you've got any problem. It's my first time modding Paradox games, so I may have overlooked a few things.

very cool idea!

Might I suggest moving the tech to Engineering? Just because Society is already much better than the other two lines.

 

[Arcvalons]

Great idea, awesome mod!

This would go very nicely with a mod that adds in gas giant species. Wonder if you'd need to separate giants out into Jovian / Neptunian / Pegasan etc. types to avoid them being overpowered though - a different tech for each with terraformability between them.

Great idea. I'd like to view it as gas planet exploration instead of colonizing. Somewhat like harvesting stations in orbit...

Would you mind to have Gas Giants to be choosen as origin planets? No idea how to do this, but yeah, call it a request.
Having some methan-breather species arround which I'd like to include. (T'Ca, Chi, Knnn)

If only we could have our builders be able to build cities (aka stations in orbit) with buildable fields on them.
Rather than simple colonization.

I like the effort tho.

I'm actually working on something like this for another mod

Can you let me know how you did this? I'd like to enable colonising of Gas giants and Asteroids (small cities, high in energy and minerals)

Note: I've discontinued this mod as I have merged it to Colonize Unlimited©.

You can look at how the mods are coded by going to: C:\Users\YOUR USER HERE\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\workshop\content\281990

The mods in there are under folders with their steam workshop id.

Do you happen to know how to tone down the number of resources in the game?
