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:
| Cluster | System | Planet | X | Y | RUs | BioUnits | Risk | Weather | Tectonics | Temp | Fuel | Type | Territory | ΔSol |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sol | Sol | Jupiter-A | 175.2 | 145.0 | 1176 | 0 | 2 | 1 | 4 | 0 | 0.74 | Radioactive | Human | 0 |
| Sol | Sol | Mercury | 175.2 | 145.0 | 1060 | 0 | 2 | 1 | 3 | 3 | 0.35 | Metals | Human | 0 |
- Risk is a number equal to the sum of the points greater than 2 in each of the three hazards.
- Temp is scaled into a 1-8 range to match the other two hazards. From a glance at the code, the temperature breakpoints are at <50,<100,<150,<250,<350,<550,<800, >=800.
- Fuel is the lander round-trip cost, equal to
(PlanetDensity * PlanetRadius)/5000, with a max of 3.0. (this appears to be what the code uses) - ΔSol is the distance from Sol in Hyperspace units.
- For more bonus points, add a column for the total cargo size of the planet's RUs. --Elestan 07:52, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
- Looks good. I would personally prefer to keep the 'hostile territory' column and remove the 'race territory' column, but no qualms otherwise. You've got my vote of confidence. It would be nice if Zeracles and/or Cybersoul could take a look at your proposal, but I can't guarantee they'll be available anytime soon. --Shiver 15:28, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
