Diaspora

Diaspora (formely known as Far From Home) is a simple mod that allows you to select a different home planet than the one you start on. The concept is similar to the Lost Colony origin, except it allows for two different species to have the same homeworld even if separated by light-years.

The mod adds 24 traits that can be used for setting up different home planets than their starting planet. The Homeworlder traits determine the worlds that will be the homeworlds for the species using the Diaspora traits. The Exodus traits select a random barren planet in the galaxy to act as your homeworld. The planet will always start with a Terraforming Candidate modifier if you want to role-play as someone who lost their homeworld to some sort of cataclysm.

• Create a species with the Homeworlder trait. This species will mark the homeworld for all other species using the respective Diaspora trait.
• Create a species with the Diaspora trait.
• Force Spawn the one you aren’t playing as, or both of them.
• There are only 8 Homeworlder traits meaning there are max 8 different shared homeworlds in a game.
• There are also only 8 Diaspora traits, but they can be used multiple times, so there is nothing stopping you from every species having originated from the same planet if you wish.

The Commonwealth of Man starts with the Alpha Homeworlder trait instead of the Alpha Diaspora trait. This is because Lost Colony spawns a planet that will act as a homeworld for this species, making said homeworld the anchor point for all other species. So basically Earth spawns as the homeworld for the Commonwealth of Man Humans and is treated as the homeworld for the purposes of the Alpha Homeworlder trait.

Besides prescripted_countries, this mod also doesn’t overwrite any vanilla files, so it should stay compatible with most mods.
