Hey Tychonoir,

If you want to add a new anomaly, you'll need to add it to the list of the AnomalyDefinitions, but also to the list of PlanetaryAnomalyDefinitions:

<DatabasePlugin DataType="Generator.Definitions.PlanetaryAnomalyDefinition, Assembly-CSharp-firstpass">
      <FilePath>Public/Simulation/AnomalyDefinitions.xml</FilePath>
      <FilePath>Public/Simulation/AnomalyDefinitions[*].xml</FilePath>
</DatabasePlugin>

This is required by our code architecture, because AnomalyDefinitions are used in game and have "fake" GeneratorInfo, while PlanetAnomalyDefinitions actually use the values for generation purposes. However they are defined in the exact same way in the same file, so it's not needed to duplicate the XML entries.

Wait. You're saying there is a hidden data table that doesn't appear in any of the xml files??

Yowsa. No wonder I'm tearing out my hair over here!

This really needs to be documented somewhere... It's not evel listed in DataTypes.txt

Thanks for the help!

(I should point out that your example didn't work, however. I had to do it like this:)

<DatabasePlugin DataType="AnomalyDefinition, Assembly-CSharp">
           <FilePath>Simulation/AnomalyDefinitions.xml</FilePath>
 </DatabasePlugin>
           
<DatabasePlugin DataType="Generator.Definitions.PlanetaryAnomalyDefinition, Assembly-CSharp-firstpass">
           <FilePath>Simulation/AnomalyDefinitions.xml</FilePath>
</DatabasePlugin>
