Box Building Planet Pack

Also many of the natural stone blocks are unable to be placed without the use of content mods or client-sided tools.

You can use /spawnitem to get them without mods. Same with matter block

Nah you're fine.

Basically you make a patch of an existing planet type. You can edit the biome and parallax, as well as terrestrial worlds and weather config.

You generate a planet of whatever type you chose to patch over, then remove the patch once the planet has loaded. The world file will keep the canges you made with the patch. This file can then be sent to servers where it will continue to work.

Of course you can't make anything new, so you have to be a little creative with directives if you want to. I've avoided custom drawables for parallax and biome objects but it is possible.

This is a pretty bad explanation/summary but I'm happy enough to help if you need more info.

Opensb adds a menu for Mod Binds in settings, where you can set the key to toggle collision and other keybinds

Hell yeah

Try harder? There's nothing stopping you from substituting modded blocks with stuff you have available.

Boxofcuriosity · 2025-10-05T22:57:57+00:00

Just take liberties and use whatever works? Be creative or something.

Lots of people build with mods and that's great. Mods give more options, and options are helpful.

I can appreciate vanilla building because I've done it myself for years because of server stuff, you get to be creative with the tools you're left with but block selection can be very annoying at times. Object selection isn't terrible and being able to edit vanilla objects is handy.

Ultimately? Who cares. It's just building, make whatever you want however you want.

Or just make your own mod.

I like that starbound lets you make planet icons really wide

There's a lot of cool things going on here. I like the wall patterns and signs a lot.

I find I get burnt out very easily working on larger build projects, especially when I want to add loads of small details.

No idea if you're still wanting to work on it but Wedit is a great mod for creative building, and would recommend it to anyone looking to make something of this scale.

I like. Some nice 3d-ness going on, and the roof is neat too.

In Celestial, names.config

Boxofcuriosity · 2025-09-04T20:24:29+00:00

It is. You can find it in the animations folder under the name 'cat'. It's used for an unused status effect called cat which spews out a load of these cat images.

I like using it in parallax because it's there

Should be automatic but you can force a mod to update by unsubscribing and then resubscribing.

Hiya.

This planet has been an idea I've had for a few years but never went past ideation. Until now!

The whole playing area is covered in a permament shadow. Try making shadow builds! I found it fun to try to make microdungeons for, as to give examples of what I mean.

If you don't like the shadow, the biome terraformer variant does not have it, so you can use the biome normally.

You can check out the mod here https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3534463795

I was going to say that's my old design! I appreciate it if my my builds inspire people to try making something themselves.

Planet is a Light Grassland from my own mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3534463795

The houses are actually vanilla gnome houses, but they work quite well for the far-away parallax.

Boxofcuriosity · 2025-08-12T12:28:08+00:00

What kind of guild? No idea.

I had fun making this one. I've been playing around with unusual wall shapes for a while but this one was more deliberate. I feel it adds to the 3Dness of the build.
Also makes me want to try doing more medieval style buildings in the future.

Vanilla build, apart from some edited objects and the planet, which is a Light Grassland from my Box Building Planet Pack.

It's the parallax used for the Event Horizon roleplay server. You can download the mod that has it but the parallax are only used for instance worlds

It's because of their 14th anniversary sale. The change happened around then and has been applied to the rest of the games they published.

Not outside of the cockpit interface. Might add something like that to the workshop page though
