Unfortunately I can't seem to run this mod, because there are at least several upper case/lower case filename inconsistencies. e.g. a sprite may be listed as Ma_Rlyeh_icon.tga, but actually be called ma_Rlyeh_icon.tga, and so on. On Windows this makes no difference, but on Linux it's a killer.

Also, I think the idea of using forests for space (or vice versa) is genius. That should get over most of your problems and add a lot of potential for interesting things.

You should bear in mind that most things move slowly through forests, and forest survival is a skill things can have. Maybe forest should be the planet surface, and forest survival represents the ability to move rapidly over planet surfaces?
