Hi there. This Idea came me as I heard the Linkin Park Song - Castle of Glass. It would be cool, to find a Glass Planet in some Systems with a firy Sun. It could Replace some of this "backed to Dead" Planets. I thought it so: The upper World is compleatly out of Glass and Crystals. Trees and Plants have crystalized too, or was burned to ashes. Insted of Lava, there are patches of molten Glass on the Overworld, surrounded by multicolored Obsidian. If the Player digged down, the first thick layer would be clear glass, later Obsidian and beyound this "dead Earth" or dry Sand. If the Molten Glass comes in contact with the dry sand, it would make it into obsidian. If the molten Glass comes in contact with water, it would become cracked glass, that will hurt the Character if he or she goes over it, because of all the sharp edges it would have. But it could be harvested from the character (in liquid or hard form) and be used in a melter, to make normal glass out of it. I know we have the Crystal Furniture allready, but maybe some more glassy Furniture would look cool too? For example: - Use Glass, copper, Silver and Gold, to make a Mirror for the Wall, - tables with Glassplates, - new sorts of kitchenware, that is placeable, - make the glass coffee mog placeable - Doors out of thick glass and so on. There could be some Crystaline Monsters on the Planet, because no normal biological ones could live on such Planets. And maybe there could be a Quest from one of the Colony Guys, that he or she needs the best glass, that can be found in the Universe, and that would be a core glass fragment in one of this Glassy and crystaline planets. Glass and Crystals that shines with an inner light, and as reward, the Player would become some Blueprints for this special glass. Oh, and it would be cool, if you would build in some useful blueprints for Obsidian too. Dark Glass Blocks, Colorful Building Blocks and so on. See ya
Maybe we describe planetary hazards as "incinerated planet full with crystalize sands : temperature are very high." You should put a weathers describe too.
Hmm... A Frozen Vulcan Planet? Frozen Oceans with underground Vulcans, or Oceans out of liquid Nitrogen several thousand degrees cold? And the Vulcans on Frozen Planets don't throw out Magma / Lava, insted they spit out Liqhid Nitrogen, Ice and Crystals, that damage the Players if they are hit, and bring extra Ice on Blocks if they hits the Ground. Oh, and it would be cool, if there where some sort of Instable Planets, where the scanner from the Orbit says so. It could be a normal Wood / Grasland or even an Ice World, and if you go on it, there are Earthquakes, crevices where comes Lava, or liquid Slime or Acid Water or what ever lies underground out of them and destroy the overworld, make it a complete new Biom set. Oh and Why are there no Vulcans on Ocean Planets? Where comes the Islands from? A little strange or not?
If I recall correctly, Vulcans come from a desert planet ... J/K, the English word you are probably looking for is volcano.
ääähhh... Jep, Volcanos. xD But a new race, similar to Vulcans would be nice too. Maybe as Keeper and Cleriks in the Ark that tells the Player a little Background Story? xD
Freeze desert? What if it describe "high pressure air and cyro sand around here " you can found cyro chest with blueprint too.anyway if we can explore gas giant,we can have chance for loot(air types)
