📋 About This Mod
Start on any of the first three planets: Vulcanus, Gleba, or Fulgora. Choose your planet in the startup mod settings before starting a new game. Compatible with many modded planets!
Any Planet Start lets Factorio players begin on Vulcanus, Gleba, or Fulgora instead of Nauvis. Configure your starting planet in the mod settings before creating a new game. It supports many modded planets, offering fresh early-game challenges for experienced players.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Finally, you can skip the boring Nauvis early game and jump straight into the fun of a challenging planet.
- With 38k downloads and 8.8 endorsements, this mod is clearly popular and well-received by the community.
- The mod settings integration makes it super easy to pick your planet before you even start a new game.
⚠️ Cons
- Only the first three planets are supported—no Aquilo or other endgame planets yet.
- If you're new to the game, starting on a harder planet might be overwhelming without the Nauvis tutorial.
- Compatibility with modded planets is promised, but you'll need to test if your specific planet mods work.
This is for veteran Factorio players who want a fresh challenge by starting on a tougher planet. It's also great for players who want to skip the early game grind and dive straight into advanced logistics.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Before starting a new game, open the mod settings and select your desired planet—you can't change it mid-game.
- If you're not familiar with the unique resources and hazards of Vulcanus, Gleba, or Fulgora, read up on them first to avoid a frustrating start.
- Consider pairing this with other mods that add early-game quality of life to balance the increased difficulty.
