Update pls

For all of ya'll looking for some asteroids update, I took the liberty of attempting to provide you with a 2.0 update for The Belt.

Credits given to the authors where due, but there hasn't been activity on their part in forever, so here you are!

http://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1321563947

Will this be updated at all for 2.0?

When is this getting updated to 1.9.1?

Hey Lamb. Do you want to repost the mod? This mod is depracated and the author hasn't said anything since 1.6.*.

Any idea if this'll be fixed?

this mod still works for 1.8.3 but you need to enable it after you start a new game or else your starting pop will be 1

@kwheeler: Did a quick test and the below fix resolves the bio trophy issue. Not sure on the whole event chain part but looks good to go.

@kwheeler: May have found the issue but not 100% sure on the fix.

Simply put, find the file '00_on_action.txt' in both the following locations:

[MAIN_STEAM_FOLDER]\steamapps\workshop\content\281990\919110572\tbukv15\common\on_action\00_on_action.txt

and:

[MAIN_STEAM_FOLDER]\steamapps\Stellaris\common\on_action\00_on_action.txt

Then its just a matter of copy and paste the file from the Stellaris to the mod. The only issue I can foresee is that the event chain about picking whether to get the mining or growth bost may not activate as I think that file trigures it and I cant find the line that effects it. which either means I've missed it or its not there. Need to find out from @xl Zema lx what he edited in there. That should fix it... maybe... need to test it.

NB ALL: As far as I can tell this still works with 1.8 unless your playing as a machine race (which I haven't looked into yet), but to get the Asteroid Miner Trait back just add:

allowed_archetypes = { BIOLOGICAL }

Add this to the file 'the_belt_00_species_traits.txt' just below 'cost = 1'.

You should find this file in:

[MAIN_STEAM_FOLDER]\steamapps\workshop\content\281990\919110572\tbukv15\common\traits\the_belt_00_species_traits.txt

@kwheeler: I'm sure the machine race glitch is a similar problem (just one line along the same format but with MACHINE instead of BIOLOGICAL, but havent found it yet.

Hello? Can you please update this mod for 1.8?

Is this mod going to be updated at any point?

Hmm. With synthetic dawn, if you are playing a rogue servitor race, the Belt seems to start you off with no biotrophy races to tend, just the machine race. Since you don't start with any bio-trophy races, you are left with very unhappy rogue servitors who cannot let the mandatory pampering begin....

will you be updating the belt for Synthetic Dawn?

UPDATE???!!!

You updating to 1.8?

Does this conflict with mods that change Sol like Sol+?

Threw a bug into the bug report thread for ya, it's kinda a nasty one. Be careful with it, btw, becuase it might spiral out of control if you're using the same code as before for all the other celestial bodies now.

also - @oldstead66 - I'm working on a version that will allow for the colonisation of ALL celestial bodies (minus stars and blackholes) complete with UI textures to boot - just need permission to use some assets that i've 'borrowed' before i can upload it :)

SORRY GUYS - an update is still in the works, i've just been snowed in with real life stuff at the minute - a complete update will be uploaded before the new DLC drops, and i'll try to keep it updated regularly thereafter! :)

there are many bugs but otherwise it is a good mod

Seems this conflicts with the 25 square home world mod

I want to try this mod, but having seen that it hasn't been touched since May, and that there's apparently a game-breaking event bug, I'll be waiting until that gets resolved. Hopefully soon, I like to go with the Rare Earth mod and things like that...so this is right up my alley.

Soo... I just jerryrigged the changes I just asked for into this mod instead by looking at how you did it. I won't go into detail here, but add it on the suggestions thread.

Unfortunatelty these changes conflicts with Real Space. Much Sadness.

I enjoy this mod, and with Real Space and no FLT it redefines what Stellaris is.

I know this isn't really a Belter issue... I miss the option to colonize barren, barren_cold and frozen planets ei. Luna and Mars before learning how to terraform them.
My logic is that mankind can live in the void of space (and the belt) so can man live on planets with no atmo.

I've tinkered with a simple mod which just added 10% habability for these planets to all hab-traits. That allows for colonization (if you get that % up to 40) by picking 'extremely adaptive' trait and research or pick the right traditions. It's not a good life on that barren/cold world for the settlers, but it's possible none the less.

But I can't implement graphics or fix compatibility with this great mod. I'm not much of a coder.
I wonder if that might be something you'd be able to and want to implement. Also, I should probably post this in suggestions thread as well.

Thank you!
Oldstead

The Ai loves colonizing asteriods, but there seems to be a crash whenever the "Belters" species modification event fires.\

Any thoughts?

@tsaieric2000 I have been playing with mods more and more creating Awesome and well balanced collection (work in progress) and from what I can tell the fastest way to check those file is to go to mod folder and search for any 00_*.txt files and then check those against the mods you want to validate.

Just wondering, what vanilla files were modified? I am trying to see if it is compatible with some of the other mods I run.

This (The Belt) and Reworked Planetary Diversity (http://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=953216510) are my favourite mods but can't play them together. Any chance we can merge them somehow?

@xl Zema lx sure

Permission granted, so long as you reference myself and other contributors to the mod. :)

Hi! Love your work and ask the permission to integrate your mod into mine

http://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=738611313

This mod makes the scorge more dangerous than ever.

Hey all, sorry for the prolonged absence. Will be working on a full update, bug fixes and trying to finish the compatibility patches for Planetary Diversity, Coloniseable Home Systems and more - stay tuned for updates! (ETA 1-2 Weeks)

I went back a few pages and didn't see anyone asking about this, but is there any one working on a patch for reworked planets and the belt to work together? I think a patch would be possible since they don't direct effect one another, they just alter the same game file. I would like to colonize all of the things, thank you.

And the event for the creation of the Belters does keep firing.

Yeah, the added trait doesn't seem to allow my new "belter" pops to colonize asteroids on their own? I feel like this may be a mod conflict tho.

I get the event that says, "People have adapted to zero G blah blah" Nearly 20 times now. For 4 pops. Why? Its annoying.

is there any reason why the asteroid miner and asteroid preference traits do not work for me? I'm using More Stars and Planet Diversity and I looked through the _class files and it doesn't seem to affect anything

also is this compatible with the alpa mod

does this work with version 1.6

Still working on new version.

hey I installed it and am using the mod now, but it says my asteroids are only 10% of habitability

Also, not sure if a glitch or not, but I literally found an asteroid with 1 tile.

So...found a rather interesting side effect when combining this with the mod Growing Planets. You can grow the asteroids...to 25 tiles...some with 100%+ mineral modifiers.

I don't have realistic Stars but I have a similar mod "More Realistic Star Systems" and I cannot use the trait either.

I found that there are too many habitable asteroid instead of "normal" asteroids. (with 0.25 habitable worlds, Around 80% of the systems in the galaxy have the asteroids habitable worlds, that's crazy ! )
Which file is used to determine the percentage of habitable asteroids ?

sometimes I find empires whose capital / homeworld is an asteroid, and the Swarm can sure infest asteroids, but for me as a player the asteroid habitability traits dont work

So apparently this mod; http://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=717706829 makes the Asteroid miner trait not work, somehow.

i cant help but notice i have a while bunch of "asteroids" that are bigger than plants by a bunch
