After around a year of development, I feel that it is finally time to open a Dev thread!
Boundless aims to be a mostly realistic, expansive, and detailed interstellar planet pack. This is my first (of hopefully many) planet packs that I'm going to be releasing, and I've learned a lot during the development of this pack. Development started wayyy back in February 2023, and has been steadily undergoing since. The home system includes 8 planets, ranging from the scorched Koron to the far-off ice giant Oura. The homeworld is the 3rd planet from the Asterai-Mikra binary, being more massive and larger than Kerbin, and hosting thin rings and 4 moons. A major point in this pack is focusing on all types of bodies, ranging from binaries to dwarf planets, which I find very little in other packs. There will be a total of 6 dwarf bodies in the home system, and some will even have moons. These will range from small asteroids to mun-sized icy bodies.
The system in total will have 41 bodies.
I will not be releasing any of the interstellar systems as of 0.1, only the main system. See below for details.
A bit of clarification in regards to the soon-to-be 0.1 release:
What will be in 0.1:
- Most major bodies/moons in the Asterai (home) syste,
- Full EVE/Scatterer support (no volumetrics atm)
What will NOT be in 0.1
Parallax support (1.0/2.0)
Volumetric support
Interstellar destinations (I promise I wont do an intercept games with this, lol)
Biome maps for all bodies
Science Defs (In need of creative writers)
Future plans
12+ total systems, 3 of which will be detailed to the level of the main system
Homeswitch
Full parallax 2.0 support
Volumetric support
Lore (?)
Full list of bodies in 0.1 (And some plans for 0.2/0.11)
Images (Spoilered in case you want to go in blind upon release!)
