No but I redid the map creator so that all the current maps (including ones that aren't randomly generated) use the new planets as well as the Vanilla planets.  I don't use this post to much so if you go to the related link on this post and ask questions on the official sins post I will probably answer questions faster.  Hope you enjoy.

This mod does too much modifications to the game. 4 squadrons can now destroy a capital ship in 20 sec and the CPU only build carriers so you see like 30 squadrons in a zone and you lose your entire tier3 fleet in 1min. You can now lose planets to culture very easily and early in the game. I'm returning to vanilla game and I'm waiting for a mod that ONLY adds planets type and NOTHING else.

Damn, I thought it would be more like the Sins Plus mod--just a variety of planet types.  Deleting the file now.

Dreossk, Scalion & CenturionJixra the solar sons, and sinsplus mods (here https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/301574) and the celestial bodies mod (here https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/338406) sound more liek what you want and urban expansion IS  more complex than these mods because of the changes in ships balance.

Agreed - I only play with Sins+ / Bailknight Graphics because there's not a single gameplay-altering mod out there that doesn't suck.
