Hopefully they have something good and concrete after in the summer! In the meantime I am still 1000% reading all suggestions for the next iteration of this mod. So anyone is free to let me hear them.

Understandable, will gladly favorite this set until things improve and settle.

I'm not working on any updates until PDX's summer UI updates and the vanilla game is settled. Also, 4.0 just doesn't appeal to me at all so far.

we need an update
Stepover34 May 18 @ 5:51am 
no, the game changed too much

Does this work for the new version of Stellaris? I would doubt it, right?

@Kem
Glad to hear it's working fine!
Kem May 14 @ 11:27am 
Thanks for the response, WP! I figured out that I wasn't on full-screen and that was why it was huge. I guess borderless does some weird things to the ui scale of this mod somehow.

It can't be dynamically resized, that's one of the fundamental things about UI modding in this. I made this for 2k screens (which is what I used) and made sure that people on 1080p would be fine, too (though it is pretty big for those guys).

An updated version, if/when it comes, might be slightly smaller because there is a whole extra tab now and each page doesn't demand so much space.

@Joker
Sadly I can't move the features back to the side-bar window. I'm planning on making the element bigger at least, though.
Kem May 13 @ 11:16pm 
Can you make an option to shrink it a little bit? It doesn't seem to match the size of the rest of the vanilla UI.
SheAway May 13 @ 6:27am 
The landscape images are very beautiful, but they occupy a large space, resulting in a relatively small display and operation area (such as building slots). I hope the new version can do a good job of balancing.

Regarding the background of the building slot, can you provide a background without any patterns? Some planets have colorful backgrounds that blend with building graphics.

Hello! a suggestion/request for the eco-dominance trait: examine all planetary modifiers in game, because some of them look like valid candidates (not just Titanic Lifeforms).
Zeizei Pumpum May 6 @ 7:31pm 
One of the best original work I see in a long time, pls take ur time for the update
also maybe more add-ons will be nice or more variety

Please update for 4.x to unbork Paradox's hot garbage planet UI.

For the blockers, which would pertain more to your other mods, it would be really cool to have events tied to clearing each type where the hivemind gets to make a choice on how to deal with said obstacles. Will it approach them with more gentle subversion or a violent absorption of problem areas?

Not sure how difficult such a thing would be, or if its out of the scope of your mods entirely but it would be really cool to see.
Servant of CTan May 6 @ 7:15am 
Hey! Really enjoy your mods and the immersion they bring to the game and I am looking forward to using them in my 4.0 games.

One feature request I would like to see (if you haven't already started working on it) would be for the "Wilderness Origin" hivemind to get specific interactions, both with the blockers as well as the UI and the custom fluff text associated with it.

I think it would be really cool to see a visual change of the UI elements to signify the amalgamated intelligence's take over of the world it is terraforming. Maybe as the colony advances in tier the UI will grow more and more 'leafy'/plant-like to signify the ongoing assimilation of the local biosphere.

Thanks for the update WP! As far as suggestions, if possible, I would like to see the planetary features brought back to a popout button so we can see them all with one click. As it stands in the new UI you can see like 2-3 features at any time and have to scroll up/down for the rest. It's truly dreadful.

1 click popout > doomscrolling until the sun burns out. In fact I think the entire extra planet tab that was added was a mistake. Do we really need to cycle through THREE tabs to deal with planetary development? Two was sketchy enough as is in 3.14, three is obviously just a result of their stubborness in not updating to a modern UI that is not so tiny they have to keep tabbing out new ones just so all the content can fit.
WP 🥔  [author] May 6 @ 3:55am 
Just FYI Now would also be an EXCELLENT time for you guys to give me any feature or improvement requests!
WP 🥔  [author] May 5 @ 5:19pm 
Thanks for the compliments guys.

Just to let you all know my general game-plan:
I likely will make a sequel "Planet View 2" edition of this mod for 4.x. But it won't be for a while because:

1. 4.0 is in a very broken state right now, I expect at least a month of two of PDX hotfixes and other updates. I don't want to work on the sequel only have things about the UI break again because of the turbulence.
2. It's just gonna be a lot of work, this original edition of the mod took a couple of months all on it's own.

Also I'd just like to say that this mod, exactly as is, working perfectly with 3.14, will always be here. So people that don't want to play with 4.x mechanics always can. I'm going to release the sequel on a new workshop page. It'll have it's own screenshots, etc. You can "follow" me as an author to know for sure when it releases.

Thanks, all!

Have to make do with Planetary Diversity's planet view mod... It doesn't hold a candle to this :steamsad:
Tanake May 5 @ 11:37am 
Absolutely love this mod and it's sub-mods, can't play without them anymore. Hope we get 4.0 update eventually :3 Keep up the great work <3

@Butterlord
Thanks so much for the compliment and talking about how it works with the other mod! That's cool.
@Stepover34
Thanks as always for helping people out!
Kido Virp Apr 19 @ 12:02pm 
found for 24 buildings, thx:steamthumbsup:
Stepover34 Apr 19 @ 11:17am 
check the discussions for compatible building slot mods
Kido Virp Apr 19 @ 10:34am 
Can't see more than 12 buildings (
Butterlord Apr 18 @ 7:21pm 
Absolutely amazing work! It's worth noting that this also has a high degree of compatibility with "All These Worlds," since that mod keeps the original 9 planet classes and simply renames them. Though you do occasionally get weird stuff, like seeing jungles on a marginal world, for example.
WP 🥔  [author] Apr 15 @ 5:06pm 
@Mental
Thank you! I think I'd like to! Depends how the patch goes, honestly, as I really don't like the "trade"/"wealth"/"logistics" mess, the higher pop numbers, the "Civilians" designation, nor much of what districts offer and thus might stay on 3.14.

So we'll see how the diaries go!
Mental Midget Apr 15 @ 9:08am 
Just to say I absolutely love your mod, it makes every planet special in sharp contrast to vanilla where they all feel the same. Will the mod be updated for 4.0 ?
WP 🥔  [author] Apr 11 @ 9:52am 
@土星环
Thank you!
土星环 Apr 10 @ 11:53pm 
what a nice mod!:zomthumbup:
WP 🥔  [author] Apr 10 @ 7:23pm 
@TiberSeptim
Actually no not right now i'm afraid! And with the crazy changes coming to buildings in 4.0 I wouldn't worry about it too much, for now.

Thanks for the compliment too! If you have feedback let me know.
TiberSeptim Apr 10 @ 2:47pm 
This is beautiful work; thank you! Do you have a personal favourite building icon mod?
WP 🥔  [author] Apr 10 @ 9:09am 
Todays livestream was very good! They brought back plurals for zones as well as some other nice flavour improvements. Looking better for 4.0 now!
WP 🥔  [author] Apr 4 @ 1:31pm 
I would also likely stack all the rural districts on top of each other vertically and make the area scrollable (exactly how modern UIOD works).

That'd give more width for the pictograms as well as spacing things out a bit better.
WP 🥔  [author] Apr 4 @ 12:47pm 
My current thoughts (if it happens).

AdorableSparrow Apr 2 @ 12:01am 
wait nvm stepover posted some in a discussion sub mods perfect.
AdorableSparrow Apr 2 @ 12:00am 
added 20 or 10 building slots but i don't think it shows on this, the UI overhaul added a scroll to it or something but im unsure. be epic if we could get some kind of support for extra buildings otherwise ill have to just settle with 12.
Stepover34 Mar 31 @ 4:41am 
@night_pryanik, there is a 24 and 48 building slot mod that is compatible with this mod, check discussions
WP 🥔  [author] Mar 31 @ 2:59am 
@Night
Scrolling the buildings is impossible, it's not supported by the game or any mod. As for the 36 building slots addon - I never made that. Check with that mod page!
night_pryanik Mar 31 @ 1:10am 
How can I scroll the buildings slots list? I have 36 buildings mod installed, but I see only 12 building slots, mouse scroll isn't working there (instead it zooms the galaxy view).
WP 🥔  [author] Mar 30 @ 6:23pm 
Unfortunately the team has confirmed as of beta 5/6 (the last one) there are still no performance gains and they haven't even started on most them.

Maybe something for 4.2 or 4.3, but I wouldn't expect much for 2025.
ReđÐeαтħ Mar 30 @ 1:25pm 
I think just because of performance, the way forward will be 4.0+...
I'm curious to see if you can make something decent out of their weird planet view.
Buildings are so tiny...
I just hope you'll give a try, but I understand if you don't :)
Annihilation Angel Mar 30 @ 1:14pm 
@WP this mod is so based, im sure whatever updates you make will be awesome
Stepover34 Mar 29 @ 2:21pm 
i hope this gets updated, It's so good
WP 🥔  [author] Mar 29 @ 1:39pm 
If this mod does come to 4.0 I'd just like to say that it will likely be MUCH less "Vanilla+" in style than this one was. And I apologise to anyone who might be let down by that.

I'd be trying my absolute best to create the sense that we're constructing multiple cities/settlements. The 4.0 suggestion that an entire planet is just a couple of intangible "Zones" or "Districts" is too abstract for me. Very ugly. I wish they'd just put zones back in the box. The game only needed more districts and a pass on buildings/planetary designations to do what they want.

On the flip side I learned a lot of cool stuff making "Mysterious Worlds" and am at the point where I could do very drastic stuff to the planet view now, if I like the idea.

But again, it all depends on how things go. If anyone has thoughts I want to hear them.
Annihilation Angel Mar 29 @ 6:26am 
@joshuajrutt damned 650? there was me all chuffed with my 420+ lol agree though, not touching 4.0 if this isnt supported
Annihilation Angel Mar 29 @ 6:25am 
absolute GOAT mod. should be in the game by default.
Zeizei Pumpum Mar 28 @ 11:51am 
So cool, hmmm not compatible with Planetary Diversity?
WP 🥔  [author] Mar 27 @ 4:35pm 
@ReđÐeαтħ
Thank you for the support. I'm watching the 4.0 beta closely, but for now there are many things I don't really like. I think there is a good chance it's going to be a disaster when it releases, and their deadline is so soon, too! So we'll see.
