Good luck. @Spud can likely answer questions about YAML arcana. I've given up on the game for numerous reasons a month after first trying it and will be trying to forget it.

Based on comment provided I am reworking the files.

Enjoy your mod that does half of what is intended. I had already created my own valid version before I even wrote to you. What you've created gets rejected and never even used.

Does not change the fact that I had 10 other people download and run the mod and none of them reported any errors not to mention the almost 500 people that are currently subbed and only are reporting an issue. - and you are right that I am new to modding but before publishing i did run each file through a an online YAML checker like https://yamlchecker.com/ and the site also did not report any issues. So you are welcome to take these files and make a competing mod that does the same thing.

I had to re-subscribe to re-read the file and examine it.

First, it's not even a valid YAML file because it's missing the opening and closing markers that identify it as such. They are not optional. They were correctly included in PlanetSizeChances, so what reason other than carelessness was there to exclude them from StarTypes?

Second, the single lone nonsensical name property shouldn't be included: it potentially causes conflicts and it's flatly unnecessary to the task.

Third, the indentation of the third key is wrong and differs from all the others. Indentation matters enormously in YAML.

That file should never have been published as-is. If you can't reproduce the errors, it's because none of you know what you're doing.

@ VulcanTourist

I have doubled checked the StarTypes yaml file and I can not find or duplicate your error, nor have any of my testers been able to duplicate your error upon downloading the mod .

@ VulcanTourist
Thank you for the feedback - I was not aware that the structure was incorrect as it seemed to function - I will try to update when I get time.

One of this mod's YAML files is carelessly not structured as a YAML file and produces these errors when the game tries to read it:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\298050\2993255477\StarTypes contents are not compatible with YAML implementation

Unable to find YAML document within C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\298050\2993255477\StarTypes

Thanks for the info. Thumb up for you

I looked into "Diverse Specials and Massive Planets V2.5" and both that mod and this one modify the Planet Size YAML.

Currently if you want massive planets you will need to load "Slightly Better Planets" first and then load "Diverse Specials and Massive Planets V2.5" - This sets the planet sizes as specified in "Diverse Specials and Massive Planets V2.5"

However if all you want is the diverse specials load "Diverse Specials and Massive Planets V2.5" first and then load "Slightly Better Planets"
