Here's an odd question: Can I edit the background color of the map?

[goboking]

You know how each biome has its own hue, even when everything in the biome is removed and only vacuum remains?  Is it possible to change these hues by hand?  Or is this something that can only be set when a map is generated?

I've got a mod that does that (Eerie colors), although it's not updated to LU yet -- will be ready for release with more config options

 

Although if 'by hand' you meant 'without a mod', then nope.

Sounds great!  I'll keep an eye out for it.

By "by hand" I mean I'm thinking of hand-crafting an asteroid in debug mode, but I'm hoping there's a way around biomes being mis-colored by background hues that don't match.

The hues are connected to zoneType (defined in world gen files) and currently the only way to edit them is a mod. The one I have changes it before the game initializes textures

I'd love this mod to make a return
