Talk:List of top mineral planets
This is extremely useful. Would it be possible to add a column with the planet types? It'd be nice to know whether a planet is a gemstone world, for cargo space consideration. --Elestan 05:01, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
- Actually, what would be even more useful would be to have a single table containing every planet in the game, with the following sortable fields:
| System | Planet | X Coord | Y Coord | RUs | BioUnits | Risk factor | Weather | Tectonics | Temperature | Fuel | Type | Territory | Distance from Sol |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sol | Jupiter-A | 175.2 | 145.0 | 1176 | 0 | some | 1 | 4 | -163 | ?? | Radioactive | Human | 0 |
| Sol | Mercury | 175.2 | 145.0 | 1060 | 0 | moderate | 1 | 3 | 165 | ?? | Metals | Human | 0 |
- From a glance at the code, Fuel should be equal to
(PlanetDensity * PlanetRadius)/5000.
- For more bonus points:
- Re-scale Temperature into a 1-8 range like the other two hazards. From another glance at the code, the temperature breakpoints are at <50,<100,<150,<250,<350,<550,<800, >=800.
- Make Risk Factor a number equal to the sum of the points greater than 2 in each of the three hazards.
- Add a column for the total cargo size of the planet's RUs. --Elestan 07:52, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
