Laserzwei Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 This is a simple asteroid respawn script. It's based on vanilla's respawn file, but extends it for a use in actively loaded sectors. It turns barren asteroid fields into nice mining places: Video of an 360x sped up process: It is not required to set the variable numRichAsteroids seen at the very beginning. I only had to use this for demonstration purposes. It comes with 2 config options: respawnTime The time until the next batch of asteroids gets spawned. and respawnAmount An percentage of the sectors original number of asteroids. List of sectors with this script attached by default: asteroidfield asteroidfieldminer functionalwreckage miningfield pirateasteroidfield piratefight resistancecell smallasteroidfield smugglerhideout wreckageasteroidfield startsector So it only works in these sectors. * It requires at least one (empty) asteroid in the sector to begin respawning. From Avorion 0.23 on, this mod will be continued in the workshop (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1692998037) Since 0.23+ became the main gameversion, there is no download here. Motivation: I mothballed an older project over at Github and I didn't want to throw this here away. So I updated it for 0.20.x. This is not the only asteroid respawn mod: Regenerative Asteroid Fields With very customizeable resource respawning sectors Asteroid Respawner Attachment in the second post very similar script to simple asteroid respawner (might be outdated) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
