Acid World
Revision as of 05:39, 30 March 2016 by Tristavius (talk | contribs) (Added some examples - still trying to work out how to convert the planet data density into the in-game Mass in 'es' (I assume Earth Standard?). Moved notes to separate section. Added additional descriptive text. Completed extra fields for info box.)
Description
Acid worlds are represented in the solar system view as green planets and and tend to be resource poor, offering only large quantities of Common Minerals in the form of Acids and low chances of bearing life.
Acid worlds have low to moderate tectonics (2 to 5) and weather conditions (1 to 4) with average gravity (0.24 - 0.38). Fuel costs for landing vary between 0.5 and 0.8 with an average of 0.62. Overall Acid worlds tend to be around 1/3rd of the size of Earth.
Resources
The following resources are found on Acid Worlds:
Mineral | Category | Deposit Size | Avg Dwarf1 | Avg Giant2 | Avg Super3 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Formic Acid | Common | Heavy | 31 | 41 | 51 |
Hydrochloric Acid | Common | Heavy | 31 | 41 | 51 |
Hydrocyanic Acid | Common | Heavy | 31 | 41 | 51 |
Nitric Acid | Common | Heavy | 31 | 41 | 51 |
Phosphoric Acid | Common | Heavy | 31 | 41 | 51 |
Sulfuric Acid | Common | Heacy | 31 | 41 | 51 |
Life forms are rare and are found on only 10.8% of Acid Worlds, accounting for an average of 52 units per life bearing world. (Minimum 2, Maximum 186).
