This is an add-on for Planetary Diversity.
This is not a stand-alone mod and will not work without Planetary Diversity.



This module adds nine unique planets with events. Some have special resources, origins that allow you to start with them, and random nearby neighbor starting systems. They are balanced to have 1 or 2 on a small galaxy but all on a larger one. If you choose to have one in your game for any reason, it will remove the system from other places. They give you access to special resources, technology, and/or relics. None of these origins gain nearby neighbors, like other strong planet origins in vanilla.
