What's New

This is the official v3.2 release of the Step NoMansSky Guide. Below is a summary of the major changes this release brings:

Better Planet Generation

Better Planet Generation (BPG) is an excellent mod, if ever experienced; however, Step can no longer endorse the use of the full mod. The Step Mandates are our guiding principles when adding and endorsing mods for our guides. In its current state, BPG adds new and alters vanilla fauna and flora. The problem with this is HelloGames changed how it handles scannable objects. This broke BPG assets from being scannable, which in turn breaks any quest given that requires scanning objects. This means the quest to fully discover planets doesn't work nor the quests received from mission boards.

Since BPG is breaking vanilla mechanics, it can no longer be considered suitable for Step. Due to time constraints, for this release the Guide has switched to using the individual Optional Files. Within the next few releases, Dud's mods and others will be considered as a replacement for BPG.
