Is there gonna be a scenario editor
Once the player has reached the end and reached the Ascension Stage, creative tools are unlocked, allowing them to mess about and use it to create their own scenarios and stuff.
Smaller questions like these are more suited for the Quick Question Thread though.
Depends on what do you mean by “scenario editor”. If you mean something like a custom campaign in some games where there is a fully featured editor for making them, the answer is that it’s unlikely. If you mean sharing planet settings with other players to see who can survive the best, then that’s definitely something that will get added.

I had an idea right now that what if the “scenario editor” was an planet editor with extra functions depending on what stage would you select would give
the complexity of editor like:
-
in the microbe stage it would hive you minimal fumction ea.: Hight editor and also I would like way to affect the speed and movement of the continents in the later stages.
-
in the society stage you would also be able affect the
Fertilitty of the land, the factions themselfs, species (mostly the major species), hight and the size of the individual territory.
I have a another idea what if in ascension stage. What if I create a solar system and create it to a a aware stage and then “release” it and players could start as any creature they want. Would it be possible?
I have an idea: how about using the Ascension Planet Editor to create scenarios?
Then other players can play them.

I merged this post to this thread as the title was different by just a single “!” character.

It seems to me that given that thrive has an open source code, which allows you to make mods that I can completely rebuild the game, as well as the ability to script, all this suggests that the full version of thrive will be a simulator of EVERYTHING!
But only if people make those mods. So far I don’t think anyone has done anything from the mod suggestions thread.

to flourish is still a little popular project, so there are few mods, and it will gain popularity only after the beginning of development of the aware stage

I generally think that the planet editor will be the host of pretty much most long-term multi-stage scenarios you can think of, like desert-ish planets. When it comes to the strategy stage scenarios, I think that they would just allow the player to give themselves an unfair advantage, so perhaps it shouldn’t be implemented.

Scenarios in general in my opinion aren’t meant to be seen in the same vain as full campaigns. Having there be limits for what stages you can’t use seems weird.

Considering that scenarios are probably not important enough to be coded into the base game, there will likely be mods for making (and sharing?) them.
Probably? Again modding of future stages is nothing but speculation atm and planned ingame content is “possibly scenarios” with ascension

You mean like scenarios with no upper time limit, allowing you to ascend whilst playing them?
