If the planet generates was really done “loot box” style you wouldnt be allowed to pick the biomes, planet type or tier.
If would be something like “Pay 10$ for a generic planet, pay 100$ for a planet that has solid white deposits of minable oort”
You at least have some control over what you are asking for with planets to make you, Im guessing you are picking biomes that look “cool” or have no clue what they will spawn because thats what i went though before i stopped just picking random biomes hoping to get lucky.
I burned though 50.00$ before finding a emerald planet i was okay with, a friend burned though 100 finding a topaz planet, i think a guild spent 100 just tring to move a planet to orbit another one.
You could at least have some fun with your “i need biome help” post
If you are a EA backer you have access to the tool to create the configs and half of yall dont have that tool.
Players also cant be trusted to submit valid configs, they would do something like “oh if i just pick Olyimpus for my only biome my planet is solid diamond” either intentionally or because they just didnt know any better.
Players will game the system were possible,
It’s not hard to figure out that if a planet takes 15 minutes minimum to spawn. And a 24 thread cpu takes 5 to spawn a planet its not very practical to spawn a preview of what you are going to get. They run the servers up in AWS where you pay for CPU usage and knowing players they would just hit refresh all day burning up cpu and cutting into the bottom line.
If people want to learn how to pick the perfect biome they should be playing with the local universe on the test branch because you can generate planets for free.
