Seems to cause my game to crash on loading for some reason

Love you're planets bud good job

Some other suggestions I would like to make:
1. Make this planet a perpetually hot environment (hot at night, hot in daytime), its a bit weird to hover above the lava pool and have the hud say that the environment around me is cold.

2. Increase the field of damage both in the vertical and horizontal axis from the edge of the lava, current iteration requires grids to be within 10 meters of the surface in order for them to be destroyed. Lava pool in this iteration is not much of an obstacle, as you just have to fly 10 meters above the surface to go over them.

3. Combine this mod with water mod to make them flowy? I dunno.

All in all, nicely crafted horror planet you have here, I look forward to making my friends suffer the nightmare that is trying to escape this planet.

There is a bug with this planet. Removing Voxels by virtue of detonating a large grid warhead at the edge of the lava pool will stop the lava-damage script; you can land your ships fine, build etc. Reloading the world in single player seems to reset the script. I understand that you probably won't be able to modify the damage script per se, just putting this out there for everyone's information.

After adding the mod to your game you will need to manually place the planet. You should be able to find out how to do so with a quick Google search.

How to I load the planet into my Game use the Mod loader, and selected it to active, then it doesn't show is there something I need to do?

thanks @Echo for the explanation.

The Planet is part of the "Khurakan System" World/Scenario https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2852224218

So I had spend already some time in that system on other planet and then travelled to Erebus and got the non-damaging Lava at first visit. A bit unfortunate since that wasn't mentioned anywhere.

It's ok for men now that I know the reason

Scripts occasionally need a game reboot before they can recognize certain game elements as active. Initiating or registering them only at the time you load into that world.

If you placed your planet and went directly to work, then the script wouldn't have had a chance yet to realize their was an active version of the planet in game.

hi, strange thing happened to me: I arrived on this planet and found a wreck on a lava field. So landed next to it to expore. Actually made that wreck into a small base. Save game, quit.

Today I load that game and everything explodes! Wow.

So I understand that is is actually the purpose of the lava. Great!

But why could I land there initially without the damage?

To clarify--I'm not sure if Ryo is still active.

I know the script isn't yours, but I've found a repeatable bug and thought you might think of, or know someone who might know, how to fix it. If you hand drill right around the level lava exists, it breaks the entire script. To test, I dug a hole near a lava lake. After a good dozen reloads (to reset the script), it seems like if you break the surface, then dig, the script is fine. Digging well above the lava level is also fine. Tested it with a couple different sized planets, and a few different locations on the planet afterwords.

@Sargonnas Absolutely, go right ahead

Echo i love this planet! Would it be ok if I add it to my Planet Mod Pack for my Star Trek Server. I would credit you of course in the description and link back to original mod

Thanks!

@Almirante Orlick - I have no issue with it, go right ahead. Just Credit for the heightmap in the description is sufficient.

Hi Echo. I really liked the geography of this planet! Would you mind if I use it as a moon (but with different textures) to my gas planet? I will add you as co-author when I publish my planet.

Supposedly, never tested it myself on a server.

Again I reiterate, the script is not my original work. It was taken from Ravcor with permission of the Author

Damage script not working on dedicated server?

@Caio - That's a pretty big question

I would start with Doctor Octagonapus's Youtube video tutorial. It's a little dated, but a good chunk of it is still accurate. Between that and the official planet building guide, you can get about 80% of the way.

Past that, look at other people's modwork. See how they went about accomplishing a Task. There's plenty to learn by Reverse Engineering existing content.

And of course, the Keen Discord itself is a fountain of Knowledge. There's a lot of Talented people on there, and if you're stuck on something, they can usually point you in the right direction.

How can I make my own planet? All guides are outdated, and your planet seems so dope!

Figured out the problem doesn't work in MP

Then i don't know how else to help you, i didn't write the script. I'm just using someone else's work with their permission

Yup

Have you saved and restarted your game since trying?

I tried it in survival and the lava won't spawn at all and won't spawn on Ravcor either

I'd recommend reading thru the comments on Ryos version of Ravcor. This uses the same script, and the required settings have been discussed quite a bit in its comments.

Hey I installed the damage mod but still can't seem to get the lava damage to work

The linked planet will definitely fill that need. It damages any player or grid caught in it. Grid damage will start at the top layer and move its way down. (Its rain, it starts on the top)

My favorite is when weather damages grids, as it gives reasons to make meaningful choices in architectural design.

I Really wanna use the damage weather script for a radioactive planet at some point.

Thanks, I love murder weather.

That said, if you want a planet with murderous weather, you could try this one.

Its a special version of Trelan i made for a server I'm working on. Comes with a couple Acid Rain Variants.

Ok thanks.

This has 2 forms of Ash Storms (Similar to Sandstorms)

I debated making these damaging as well, but it would mean adding a 2nd script and make it more hostile than intended.

What kind of weather does the planet have? personally I wish a mod that brought No man's sky's hazardous weathers an I have been looking to do a survival on a planet that is out to kill you.

Thank you, driving on the lava is not advised

Вау, какая красивая планета!

*Does his happy dance*

I love how he immediately stresses how dangerous it is. Pretty common theme for my planets 😁

JackRPG just released a video on this mod: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCScLGELqjM

I was referring more to making a custom starter vehicle mod with a lower density requirement 🤣

I like a challenge but, that was my suspicion as to why. Modifying the atmospheric stats slightly could work. Been looking for a good lava planet as a hard start. I also found the lava player damage script on another planet. Thanks for your time.

While a custom mod could be made to account for this and make spawning viable, this planet was not designed to be a starter. Its meant to be something you visit after establishing yourself elsewhere.

The low atmo density will make atmospheric thrusters less effective, and there's no ice to fuel hydros.

Not to mention, if you happen to spawn over the lava you will be immediately obliterated. 🤣

Erebus has an extremely low oxygen and atmospheric density which sits below the required minimum of most respawn pods.

For some reason Erebus doesnt show up in the available planets for respawning. The mod is loaded and I have placed in my world it just is not available. Thats with custom and standard rspawn ships. Single player offline mode, scripts enabled
