Planet modifiers

Each planet has a small chance of containing a modifier that will affect the colony should the world be colonized. They may be positive, negative or mixed, identified by the color of the modifier's border.

Random anomalies can generate a great variety of planet modifiers but those usually do not have any effects.

Random modifiers[]

These modifiers can appear at random on any planet outside an empire's home system. If terraforming technology is researched some of them can be removed either via a special decision or by terraforming the planet. A planet can have up to 2 random modifiers

Modifier	Effects	Spawn chance	Removed by terraforming	Description
Bleak	−5% Habitability −1 Food from Farmers −4 Max Agriculture Districts	×0 if Tropical ×0 if Lush ×0 if Rich Microflora		Life struggles to survive here, and while some clings to a tenacious existence it is anemic and sickly.
Tidal Locked	−30% Max Districts Enables the Day Farm Construction decision	×3 if moon ×0 if Gaia World Always present on Proxima Centauri b		This world is tidally locked around its star, meaning that one side always has daylight while the other is locked in eternal darkness. If life exists here, it is likely limited to the twilight regions where the two sides meet.
Weak Magnetic Field	−5% Habitability −5% Pop Growth speed +10% Physics from Jobs	×2 if Low Gravity ×0 if Abundant Geothermal Activity ×0 if Strong Magnetic Field ×0 if Gaia World		Although habitable, this world has a weak or non-existent magnetic field that offers little protection against cosmic radiation.
Hazardous Weather	−10% Habitability −5% Happiness +20% Energy from Jobs +4 Max Generator Districts	×0 if Gaia World		This world suffers from unstable weather patterns, with violent storms frequently appearing out of nowhere to wreak havoc on the surface.
Hostile Fauna	−10% Habitability −5% Happiness +20% Society From Jobs	×2 if Lush ×2 if File:High gravity.png High Gravity ×0 if Titanic Life		This world has evolved extremely Hostile Fauna, and the surface is rife with lethal predators waiting to ambush their next meal. Their biology offers great research opportunities, however.
High Gravity	+10% Building cost +10% District cost −5% Habitability +2 Max Districts	×4 if Planet Size 22+ ×2 if Planet Size 20-21 ×0.5 if Planet Size 12-15 ×0 if Planet Size 1-11 ×0 if Low Gravity ×0 if Gaia World		This planet is unusually dense and so has uncomfortably high gravity.
Low Gravity	−10% Building cost −5% Habitability	×8 if Planet Size 1-6 ×4 if Planet Size 7-11 ×2 if Planet Size 12-13 ×0.5 if Planet Size 20+ ×0 if File:High gravity.png High Gravity ×0 if Gaia World		This planet has an unusually low density and therefore much lower gravity than most planets of comparable size.
Wild Storms	−5% Habitability −5% Happiness +20% Physics from Jobs	×0 if Gaia World		Spectacular electrical storms wrack this planet's atmosphere on a semi-regular basis.
Abundant Geothermal Activity	+4 Max Generator Districts +1 Engineering from Technicians	×2 if File:High gravity.png High Gravity ×0 if Strong Magnetic Field ×0 if Weak Magnetic Field ×0 if Relic World		This planet has many accessible geothermal hot spots. While this poses some engineering challenges, it also provides extra energy generation opportunities.
Atmospheric Aphrodisiac	+5% Habitability +10% Pop Growth speed −20% Government ethics attraction		Tomb World Machine World Hive world	Something in the air of this planet seems to put people in the mood to reproduce.
Extensive Moon System	+10% Minerals from Jobs +1 Max Mining Districts	×0 if not Gas Giant ×0 if no moons		This gas giant has an unusually large amount of natural satellites. Hundreds of small moons and moonlets orbit the planet.

Subterranean Wildlife	+2 Max Districts +4 Max Mining Districts +1 Society from Miners +20% Building and District Upkeep	×2 if Low Gravity ×0 if Asteroid Belt ×0 if Ocean World		This planet has a thriving underground lithotrophic ecosystem. Herds of mild mineral-crunching subterranean creatures dig out large caverns, leaving them available for mining and colony use. The animals provide unique research opportunities for the miners who direct the packs to valuable mineral deposits.

Minerals[]

A planet can only have one minerals modifier, which affects the planet's Minerals production. They cannot be removed by terraforming.

Modifier	Minerals from Jobs	Max Mining Districts	Spawn chance	Description
Poor Quality Minerals	−25%	−3	×4 if Low Gravity ×0 if Gaia World	It is unknown if this planet simply formed this way, or if some unknown race once stripped it of its more valuable resources. However, we do know that the minerals present on this planet are of unusually poor quality.
High Quality Minerals	+15%	+4	×4 if File:High gravity.png High Gravity ×0.5 if Relic World ×0.1 if Tomb World	An abundance of high quality minerals in this planet's crust makes mining here a lucrative business.
Exceptional Quality Minerals	+25%	+8	×8 if File:High gravity.png High Gravity	The exceptional quality of the minerals in this planet's crust provides a truly staggering opportunity for mining.
Carbon World	+15%		×4 if File:High gravity.png High Gravity ×0 if not Barren	This world has been formed mostly out of carbon, and contains little oxygen.

Terraforming candidates[]

Terraforming Candidates are modifiers that have a small chance to appear on uninhabitable planets and are always added to worlds ruined by a crisis. The modifiers allow the planet to be terraformed if the Climate Restoration technology has been researched. They do not appear if the required expansion is not installed. The chance for the a planet to have the modifier is scaled by the Habitable Worlds game setting.

Modifier	Planet	Chance	Required AP	Description
Terraforming Candidate	Barren	1%	—	Though barren and devoid of life, this planet has water in frozen form and may once have been home to a thriving ecosystem. With the right technology, it could be terraformed into a habitable world.
Frozen Terraforming Candidate	Frozen	1%	Hydrocentric	Though cold to the point of being unable to sustain life, the frozen water on this world could allow us to terraform it into a habitable world, if we can find the right method.
Toxic Terraforming Candidate	Toxic	15%	Detox	Though the noxious gases on this world make it unfit for life, with enough effort they can be broken down into less lethal compounds, eventually allowing colonization.

Event triggering modifiers[]

The following random modifiers trigger an event roughly one year after the planet is colonized. The event can only trigger once per colony.
