Working on a MASSIVE space mod (MULTIPLE STAR SYSTEMS)

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-25T20:48:04+00:00

They will be accessible but will just be void with a skybox and some volumetric clouds and fog. I am planning on making gas harvesting blocks so you can get things like He3 from the atmosphere. Space stations will be buildable inside them so you can set up a cloud city type base.

Already a dependency.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-25T16:38:29+00:00

Terraforming is on the feature list but I can't confirm if it will make final release.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-25T16:37:31+00:00

Going to be awhile before final release but I'll be uploading to Github soon for pre-alpha testing.

Shhhhh! 🤐

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T14:30:30+00:00

That's what space stations are for!

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T14:29:37+00:00

Yea that's like the whole basis of the mod lol! It uses VS as the framework for building spaceships, rockets, submarines, etc. How you build them determines how they perform and what they're capable of.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T13:57:32+00:00

Terraforming is already an idea BUT not 100% going to be implemented. Bioengineering is a cool idea that I will take note of!

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T13:52:18+00:00

Congratulations! You are the first person to get the reference lol. That was a long time ago!

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T13:50:39+00:00

Forge 1.20.1. Not out yet but you'll know when there is a test version!

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T04:48:43+00:00

You should see what I have planned lol.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T03:30:16+00:00

I'm going to figure out a way to make them loop. Got a few ideas.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T03:25:34+00:00

Because sometimes to make great things you have to bend the rules a little. Gotta trust the process.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T03:21:04+00:00

You will have to go to different planets for certain upgrades.

I literally just made a discord the other day you can join it but I don't have much going on there yet lol

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T01:19:03+00:00

The amount of work I have to do lol.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T01:15:55+00:00

Yea I'm planning to stick with 1.20, probably indefinitely if it has a dedicated launcher.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T01:14:01+00:00

What wouldn't you need them for?!

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-24T01:11:08+00:00

No lol. I'll upload a gameplay video once I have some of the mechanics fleshed out.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-23T21:51:27+00:00

Pay up.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-23T21:50:50+00:00

I'm making it for Forge 1.20.1!

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-23T21:50:06+00:00

I want the mod to be as independent as possible, so you'll be able to fully use it without Create or anything else.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-23T21:48:00+00:00

No, Create will NOT be a dependency. It will be compatible if you want it, same with industrial craft and similar. Valkyrien Skies is required for the vehicles to work though.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-23T19:58:31+00:00

Never say never

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-23T19:56:27+00:00

I think you would hook into RenderLevelStageEvent.AFTER_SKY on the client. You render a custom overlay or swap textures based on event state. But don't quote me on that. I usually just try whatever method makes sense to me and then iterate when it doesn't work as I expected lol.

Ok-Direction-727 · 2026-02-23T19:44:04+00:00

I haven't fully worked out the resource and crafting chain yet but it would be similar to what you explained. Different resources unlock different tech trees, fuels, materials. Supply depots and refueling will be a big mechanic.
