[QUOTE="djdurant, post: 2822593, member: 22384"] Some example systems from my star system generator. Currently output regarding the moons is turned off (except name) while I balance the moons to be realistic. Next step (after moon debugging) will be life/populations. Updated: Now has the planet types of -Jovian: Largest of gas giants, metallic hydrogen. -Uranian: Smaller than Jovian gas giants, no metallic hydrogen. -Terrestrial: Rocky/metallic core/composition. (Mercury, Venus, Earth) -Planetoid, Ice: Less than 2000km diameter, hydrographics > 75%, temp < 273K -Planetoid, Rocky/Metallic: Less than 2000km diameter, hydrographics < 75% Hydrographics is percentage of planet coverage of water.
