That is likely because one mod, Modular Encounter Systems, was updated to include a feature called Combat Phases. AaW is not updated for it, so if the Combat Phase is active, no bases will spawn. An easy fix is to just disable Combat Phases: /MES.Settings.Combat.EnableCombatPhaseSystem.False

No NPC bases are spawning on Agaris.

That's because Agaris uses an oremap with manually placed ores. The mod description has the locations for the ores. They are a few kms apart, so that's why you haven't found more.

Just curious... has something mucked up the ore spawning recently? Even adding a 2km ore detector, I can't find much of anything on Agaris in this beyond a single patch of Cobalt. Went to some other planets in the solar system (and added an Earthlike) and things seemed fine.

There's always that one. >.>

WHAT BLUEPRINT
Its literally a solar system

good mod

Do I just have bad luck or do trading stations not spawn?

seems to be a drop pod spawning issue. spawns under the worlds sometimes and only spawns in one general area and not randomly around the world.

yeah, this planet was designed well before that change, but I'm thinking maybe something can still get down there, drill and fills would be able to, if they didn't CTD the game upon attempting to drill underwater (likely cause it tries to drill the water, and the game breaks when it does)

Anyone have an idea on how to get the platinum on Agaris with Water Mod 3.0? Now heavy armor is damaged below 500m depth, and the platinum is further than that, so not even a heavy armor submarine would survive. I suppose I could go to the other planets/moons though.

does this have MES

First load the system normally, then log out and go to the mod settings for this saved game, there you only have to exchange the old water mod for the new one, but make sure to put it in the same place as the old mod.

It worked for me, at least I haven't had any problems so far

Apart from Bylen Planet who makes error messages...

Hello, is it possible to change this system to the new Water Mod 3.0 ?

The planet Bylen generates error messages in the F1 menu.
It says: the Bylen Mod would access the physics interface via an external threat and that this could lead to possible crashes.

Use those to make yourself a GPS in the game and that will give you a start. Some are not right I have found due to the planets being moved while the stations were not. Doesn't hurt too much. I attribute that to "enemy" misinformation trying to undermine my standing with other factions. Can't win them all.
Just be careful not to change your Sandbox.sbc file. Just read it. I do know there is a way to fix this by moving the broken stations and then resaving the world file to upload. That would be very difficult though.

The issue with trade stations - I looked in my sandbox.sbc found in my save game folder and found 77 that are on planets and 33 in space. Easy to find them. Just search for "<IsDeepSpaceStation>" without the quotes. The ones listed that are true are space stations the ones as false are ground. For my save the faction ID listed for Space Pirates is the first ones listed and have a faction ID number of 273060811546874192. 4 lines above the "<IsDeepSpaceStation>" is the Position for the station in x,y,z.

Love the work done, but I do have a problem with the world. I am getting the 'World failed to save' error, and from the very get-go too. As soon as I load the preset and try to save, it gives me that error. Any advice would be appreciated, as I found little that would truly help in the long run online.

(Shortening the Voxel names in the save files supposedly only works for a while until the names get longer again, as apparently they contain ore placement data - or so reddit says.)

Maybe I misunderstood the description?

It is said that this solar system is designed in such a way that you have to fly from planet to planet to get all ores, but why can you then find all ores (including gold, silver, platinum and uranium) on the same planet? Doesn't matter which one you take?

The only ores scattered across each planet are these new crystals etc.

I just thought you would have to fly to another planet to find gold or uranium, for example.

I done some testing and the npc stations do spawn , only issue ive found is some of the ground stations are spawning in space and also in the gas giant so any hauling contracts could potentially want you to go to the gas giant which i dont know if thats possible

Just found two trade stations within 5kms of eachother on Thora 4 when looking for the uranium vein... so I guess they are there, just super hard to find. (been to 5 planets/moons so far to find these two)

Are ore maps broken or am I unlucky? I spawned on Thora 4 and the only resource I have found is platinum yet I'm using a rover with an ore detector with an 800 meter range.

Also not finding any trade stations, as I understand it the "map" has to be initially created with economy turned OFF, once at least one of the planets have been spawned in then it can be turned on, otherwise trade stations will never spawn on fixed bodies. If this mod/world was made with it on then I'm afraid we're all out of luck, unless you want to go and try and find a deep space trade station. Those are present, I can see them in my sandbox.sbc file, good luck with that though unless you copy the gps co-ords out of the file. Mod author, was this preset made with economy off initially?

Love the variety of planets. Like another user below not finding any trade stations, didn't have cargo ships either until I installed mods, unfortunately no such thing exists for trade stations.

is it compatible with real orbits or will i have to fix the overlapping gravity wells manually?

@=Thoraxe= Theres another version for that https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2738243419

Do these work with the Industrial Overhaul?

The most recent update broke solar panels on planets. They still Work in orbit, Im getting errors about sky boxes being broken.
MOD_ERROR: Ares System, in file: D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\244850\2723138110\Data\Planet Agaris.sbc
Resource not found, setting to null. Resource path: D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\244850\2723138110\Textures/Models/Environment/Sky/Landsky_texture.dds

For some reason, any spawn on Agaris seems to be missing their subgrids, such as wheels on AQD's respawn rovers. Other planets like Crait seem to be fine though.

@CaptainArthur yup , and made a new games few times.. not a single gps datapad on inventory.. and no stations found , btw love the work u made on the planets :)

@PhilSwiftHere21 ME do work, at least wasteland encounters v2.

@barretazo turned on economy in the settings?

anyone found any trade stations... ??

Is Modular Encounters functional in this new system?

Okay, so I'm not too stupid to find it? YAY. Ty for the quick reply and the great work btw. Enjoying this system a lot. Agaris is beautiful.

@Frog of War Ah I made a mistake. Uploading the fix now. Try again in 5 min

On the Agaris v2 map (https://www.maptoglobe.com/B1Xrqzyat) there is only 1 source of U: at the southpole. So I eventually looked at the map and went along the Ni-Co line till I met the ravine in the middle. There I circled in search of U. Sorry, do not have 3d map mod installed.

@Frog of War which U are you trying to find? Can you send screenshot of your 3d map

Cant find Uranium on Agaris either. Searched extensively (triangulated via Ni-Co and also Co-Fe), searched high (looking for blotches) and low (<150m with large Ore detector)

@Chrisbitz This one fixes a possible issue with the other one having Luma as a planet for multiplayer.

Whats the difference with this and the preset world 1?

Love this! Only question is, on Agaris, how deep is the uranium? I've flown over with small and large grid ore detector and can't detect it.

So curious does this work wtih the agaris npc system?

@panda "David attenborough" - You can find the wild Jakaya in many a habitat here he roams in the space engineers universe

@Jakaya So random seeing you in the wild.

Glad you got it working Cpt :)
