Oh I thought you meant an endless planet type (instead of lava, barren etc.). Like created by the endless or something. That would be cool.

I think with a blue background and making the stars island with regions on it would be easyer.

It's a fair idea, but it would demand huge resources and time-investment. It's not likely to happen and it's not a distinguishing feature.

What if you had Endless Space, but the planets had continents, you would click a button and enter the planets atmosphere and vie citys and ground units. It would certainly give you more control over invasions, but it would be a lot of work.

good concept, however it would kind of defeat the purpose of it being a "space" game, but it wouldnt be a bad mod, altho the planet would have to be MASSIVE for it to work :/

= Endless Game.

Which is pretty awesome, but like others already mentioned, it'd be alot of work to pull off, more-so than any regular modification, a total overhaul really.

And that will burn out most people rather quickly, not alot of modifications that do that ever get out of an unfinished beta state.

Possibly 100% pure silicon, just a massive planet-sized computing substrate which once housed some of the 'virtual' faction, would be pretty thematically cool. Hard to see how it would balance though, sounds like something you'd get in a scenario or campaign, if the game had such a thing.

My idea was a mod that removes space and replace it with a planet. Instead of the universe you would have one large planet. Instead of planets you would have continents. I know its way different then the actual game but everything thats in now could be ported to it with different models. I personally think this would be amazing!

Not much point posting ideas for mods, if you want it, go forth and mod!

(But as others said, there are plenty of good earthbound TBS 4x games out there already).
