I bought a new computer recently and re-installed BoTF, but it soon struck me that I'd not copied over the Mod installation file or even noted down the name of it >.<

Basically, as I'm very fussy about only colonising planets with over 250 max pop, I had found a mod that boosted most planet sizes. A barren planet for example would have up to 150 instead of a meagre 5-70 and almost every system with 4+ planets met my 250 pop requirement more easily.

I'd guess that this is part of a larger mod, anybody know of one which increases planet sizes without a whole bunch of other drastic changes to the game?

I believe you may be looking for the Colonies mod. Not certain though, since I've never downloaded it, but I'm pretty sure that one does increase Colonies pop size, among other things.

BTW, great quote Abbs.

Ask and ye shall recieve!

Here's the Planets mod:
