Large Game Customizations

Description
This is a series of customizations that I'm making to make large-game (>150 systems) maps more interesting. I've been using it with the second-most difficult AI.

Artifacts PlanetGenerator and StellarGenerator are a bit more frequent.
Floating Continents can now be added multiple times.
Giga & Tera Cities Added. Bigger, more expensive, take longer to build, but are still better overall. Also slightly increase pop cap.
Research goes a bit further.
Protoplanets can be morphed into a LVL 3 resourse.
More resourse types can be terraformed, but the higher level ones are *quite* expensive. Lvl 3's are 20-40 million, and the scalables start are 80.

Further work that I want to do:
Make an artifact that will capture an owned resourse asteroid, and add it as a moon to a planet.
----Currently, I can add a moon to a planet, but it won't let you build a moon base.

Allow merging of multiple floating continents.
----Requires me to make and implement a script that will give a count for the number of a particular status that is on a planet.

Make adding multiple floating continents cost exponentially more energy.
----Again, scripting.

Other Stuff, like more buildings, maybe.
Fix stuff like Forges being built on floating continents having non-intuitive behaviour.
Allow construction of floating continents/moons for ore, at a higher price than an artificial planet.

Most of the rest involves editing scripts/*.as files, and I'm still working through this.

Feel free to take any/everything that you'd like from my mod, I don't really care. Heh.
Working as of 25/6/2015

Awesome changes for late game on big systems, I am looking forward to those combined floating continents!

Thumbs up, have played a bit of it.
Stable, good addons, generally ace!

looks interesting, I'll give it a go. Thanks dalo.

Well, that didn't quite turn out to be as simple as I planned when I wrote this. I wound up implementing the whole ability instead of writing a simple hook. :o

Based on the fact that you claim you can add a moon without being able to use it, I will assume you are under the impression that the 'Moon' status is relevant to your efforts. It is not - you must make a hook (a script, as you put it - located in scripts/definitions) which calls the Planet::addMoon function. I'll post a super-simple example of an AbilityHook implementing this function in the mod's Discussions section.
