deadbeef79000, 1 month ago TL;DR: yes. Your starting planet is random. The environment and resource distribution is also random. It’s all random. You are just very unlucky. Permadeath makes pretty much everything harder too. It weights the randomness towards more hostile starting planets and scarcer resources. You can now, also tailor the difficulty with some very fine grained settings: some of which are around how much resources you need for refueling etc.
