7 days to die galaxy far far away

Beautiful galaxies in the night sky

Client side only mod.
Skybox replacement for nighttime sky.

Changes each night to a new skybox. Synced across all clients using the same settings. (changes at 12pm Noon for seamless immersion)

Settings.xml to choose group or single skybox.

<!– Random galaxy each night? –>
<shuffleGalaxies>true</shuffleGalaxies>

<!– Frequency of change? # of days, 1, 7, 3, etc. Whole Numbers only.–>
<shuffleInterval>1</shuffleInterval>

<!–
Galaxy Type? This setting will control which group of galaxies to
shuffle through. This setting requires shuffleGalaxies to be true –>
<galaxyType>all</galaxyType>

<!– Use only one Galaxy? This setting requires shuffleGalaxies to be false–>
<galaxyName>nebula2</galaxyName>

Review settings.xml file for more details on possible values.

You can specify a single galaxy to always use, or shuffle through a certain group at the desired interval.

Adds SO MUCH “flavor” to the game its great! Really makes the nighttime sky really different and it makes the game more immersive. Questions though, is there a way you can have it NOT override the Blood Moon Sky? and is it possible to add in the “NORMAL” night sky into the rotation of night time skys? Thank You!

Beautiful mod, there’s something to do now in the evening, stay up on the roof and just awww at the night sky. I/we don’t scavenge at night because zombie settings are set to nightmare and we play hard core 1 life. Fantastic mod.

<!--  Use only one Galaxy? This setting requires shuffleGalaxies to be false-->

Change these two settings in the settings.xml file located within the mod folder.

This is really cool. The zombie apocalypse would seem a lot less bleak with this going on!
