More POI's on planets?

[Gwennein0619]

ive seen people saying that they increased the number of pois on planets so theres more stuff on the planet but i dont know what to edit in the files to accomplish that. any help?

You can increase number of POIs (while playing single player) in playfield.yaml definition files in the game's installation directory: "Empyrion/Content/Playfields/<name_of_playfield>/playfield.yaml".

You open the file with a plain text editor, find "POIs:" section and increase numbers in "CountMinMax:" for the groups of POIs you want to have more on the planet.

i ve got 2 questions:

1. if i raise the water level on a planet and thus reduce the land mass, do POIs spawn on the remaining land or do they spawn underwater too thisway?

2. if i want to flatten a planet much more - like giving omicron more desert plains rather then rocks, how would i do this?

the guide postet by xango is very helpfull, thanks!

1: POIs spawn on land. Exception: raise water level After the planet is generated.

2: for terrain name use barren or desert2. See the guide for the section titled Terrain, first example.

great, thanks for the answer! I wasn't into this until now and it seems to offer a lot of experimental fun :)
