Does this mod work for bugs that depend on the time of day on the planet (day/night)? Or is it worth looking for these beetles also only during their spawn time?

Nevermind... I just read Soüp's comment and Azure Fang's answer below. On this particular Tundra planet I have a Midnight biome and thats why the Xenofly spawns there.

This mod seems to spawn every bug on every planet, contrary to the description which states "... all bugs applicable to a particular biome to spawn on all valid planets." I now had Xenoflys spawn on a Tundra planet when the Xenofly should only spawn on Mutated and Midnight. That makes hunting particular bugs now even more difficult.

This work with FU's bugs?
Azure Fang  [author] 7 Apr, 2020 @ 7:10pm 
My wording was poor - that's how it's supposed to function. The primary biome of a planet only determines its visual from space; the game will call any applicable spawn tables beyond that, so when a major biome is used as a sub-biome, it brings with it monster and bug spawn tables.

Weirdly, this mod seems to be causing bugs to spawn per biome, not per planet. So on a single savannah planet I was getting forest, savannah, and desert bugs depending on where I was on the surface.

Making good progress on the achievement though, thanks!

this one does work

Is this mod a better version of Bug RNG Removal? I need one that works
Revalopod 29 Apr, 2019 @ 8:22am 
Yeah but it starts being a worry when spend half an hour in volcanic and get 30+ bugs but not a single phoenix fly, the chances are super low of that happening, so I'm either extremely unlucky and the RNGods despise my soul, or there a problem
Azure Fang  [author] 29 Apr, 2019 @ 7:42am 
Probably nothing. That's luck.
Revalopod 29 Apr, 2019 @ 7:27am 
Help, I've found dozens of heathuggers and glowbugs but not a single Phoenixfly. What's wrong????

This thread details a safe method that will keep the rest of your progress intact. I will update the mod description to include this.

How can i reset the planets that i already visit ?
Hadronaze 1 Aug, 2017 @ 10:54am 
I did not know they were removed from lush biomes at some point. Thanks so much for explaining that.

@Hadronaze
Actually, if you're going off of the wiki it's woefully out of date. At some point Glowbug was removed from Lush planets, leaving only Butterbee, Fawnfly and Mudstag, but nobody updated the wiki to reflect the asset change. I'm actuallly going to go in and correct that wiki page, so thanks for alerting me.

So I'm sorry, but I won't add Glowfly to Lush. The intent of this mod is only to allow the vanilla bug spreads for their biomes.
Hadronaze 1 Aug, 2017 @ 9:37am 
Would it be possible to add glowbugs to Lush biomes? I know they also spawn in Volcanic planets. Lush is the only biome to have 4 different possible bug spawns as opposed to the usual 3.

Thanks for making this mod. Was a pain to keep finding asteroid rain magma planets only to find that it was the same bug I caught before.

Azure Fang, thx for explaining
Azure Fang  [author] 28 Jun, 2017 @ 12:52am 
@*Yuki*
Ah, thank you for that. But by it's description, that mod may cause conflicts. The problems it addresses in addition to the RNG removal has been patched in-game. This mod only addresses the RNG.

I know this effect was integrated into BEES!, but that's been discontinued and is only available as part of FU now.
*Yuki* 27 Jun, 2017 @ 4:08pm 
I think, there was mod like this before, but cant find it

Excelent!.
