    I'm new to modding planetary annihilation, and I want to install a few mods. The only problem is that when I have more than three mods installed my game will load and the UI's will load but there would be no planet or system.. Is there a limit on how many mods you can have installed? Is this a bug? I looked around on the forums and couldn't find anything whatsoever. The mods that I currently have installed are floating framework, Setting Manager, Eco Manager, and Team Build Color. Do I need to run My computer is able to run Planetary Annihilation great and I'm not understanding why the system isn't showing up. Not sure if it matters but I have tried launching Planetary Annihilation both from the desktop and from the mod manager. I also added a DxDiag.txt. Any help would be appreciated!

    You can have as many mods installed as you want, provided that the individual mods don't break anything.

    I have... I dunno. At least a dozen installed and my game runs real smooth. Some are a lot simpler than others, but some are fairly extensive.

    Mods often break when new builds of PA are released, until the mod author updates them again. If you are using a set of mods that works, then add another and it breaks, have a look at the forum thread for that mod, as there may be information there about the issue.

    (If you're not sure which mod is causing the issues, turn them off one at a time until you no longer get the issue)

    Well, I did find a fix for it. I installed a mod called "No Blackscreens" by Cola_Colin and it works great now.

    I do think we should consider merging some mods.

    Guys if ever you have a problem with mods ask here and you'll be sorted out immediately : https://forums.uberent.com/threads/are-there-any-mods-what-are-they-like.57013/

    In the O.P. I explain that if you ever get that problem you can hit f5.

    If you still get a blackscreen every now and then, hit f5 to refresh the screen. At one point I had a few dozen mods active at once and it was fine.
