Alpha Centauri Improved

Description
For a long time now, I’ve wondered about why Stellaris doesn’t have a good option for starting on Alpha Centuri instead of Earth.
So I went and made a mod for it.
And then life happened, and I kind of forgot to publish the mod.
For four years.
Anyway, here it is now.

This mod adds five different version of Alpha Centuri as possible starting system, including ones where Earth is a tomb world, and one where Earth is extremely young (Pre-Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event). Each version has unique anomalies, which change if you’re using the Human portrait. Additionally, there are alternate starting systems where you start on the planet orbiting Proxima Centurari.

This is still somewhat unfinished- Earth doesn’t have a custom archeology chain yet, just an anomaly, and I’d like to add a couple different variations to the story of how Earth perished. However, after sitting around for so long, I thought I had better get off my butt and publish it!

@Ha_konZ - it does not, so far as I've managed to test it. There may be some wierd edge cases, though.

Did this mod overwrite or conflict with your Improved Mars mod ?

@Nathaniel Herapen the Third - Thank you! I'm honestly surprised no one made a similar mod before.
It's funny how this never crossed my mind before. Of course our first stop would be Alpha Centauri System. Thank you for this!

oh, as it turns out my game lags at the start of every new month and takes a lot longer to load in and start a new game so i'm going to not play for a while anyway, unfortunate.

@youtubitz - unfortunately, the technical limits of the game prevent that from happening. Every non-player empire has to be either manually coded in - something which takes quite a bit of time to do- or randomly generated.

Now if You might add custom Empire's in Sol and alpha centaurie you would make my day, if it is not beyond what you want to do with this.

Made a major update, including a fix for the 'remnants' origin.

Take all the time you need

And yes, I'm still working on an update. Some parts are taking longer than I expected they would to write, and Real Life is interfering.
