Summary[]

The surface of volcanic biome worlds resemble scorched worlds, being rocky and occasionally sandy with erupting volcanoes everywhere. Plants will typically have crowns glowing with the colour of erupting lava, and some minerals have lava in their cracks. The resources Pyrite and Sulphurine can be found here, and there is no biome-specific plant resource on volcanic worlds. Basalt can be found as a secondary element in minerals.

Name generation[]

A volcanic planet's surface.

A volcanic planet's surface.

The biome type is indicated in the information panel when the player exits their starship. This is procedurally generated by adding one of the following prefixes to the Planet or Moon text.

The sequence is taken from the game file.

  1. Lava
  2. Magma
  3. Erupting
  4. Volcanic
  5. Ash-Shrouded
  6. Ashen
  7. Tectonic
  8. Unstable
  9. Violent
  10. Molten
  11. Flame-Ruptured
  12. Imminent Core Detonation
  13. Obsidian Bead
  14. Basalt

Conditions[]

  • Hazard protection is always on due to high temperatures. Coolant Network upgrades are recommended, especially on extreme worlds.
  • Heat storms can occur, draining hazard protection approximately three times more quickly than normally.
  • Extreme volcanic worlds drain hazard protection during a storm at the same rate as extreme scorched worlds.
  • The ground may self-ignite creating local high danger spots.

Weather[]

In extreme weather Volcanic Planets, storms cause fires to spread.
