OLD IK006-FL-U

Old Version without weather. new file --> https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3446310551

Note: There is a new version named IK006-FL-U Alu (Ore Redistribution) which removes Cobalt and uranium from the planet for those that wish to add contrasting planets to further encourage trade and travel.

Descriptive Report
IK006-FL-U is a lush world filled with a combination of trees strongly resembling earth pine trees as well as the more tropic appearing alien trees. Its surface is comprised of vast red mountains, gorgeous valleys, large expanses of frozen wastelands, and crystal like frozen lakes. Though similar to many earth like planets this hostile world is filled with no shortage of predators. The abundance of wolves on the planet's surface can be daunting. Warmth is a lacking quality but freezing to death shouldn't be an issue so long as you avoid the higher elevations. The same can be said of its harsh scarcity of oxygen. The planet is covered in blistering winds that make wind turbines an excellent means of generating power in the lower valleys. The air density is thick making air thrusters an extremely viable commodity so long as you stick to the lower elevations and navigate around the perilous mountains it has to offer. Scans of the planet reveal that it is highly abundant in all necessary resources. Its main ores most commonly found are Iron, Silicon, and Nickel. While Silver and Gold are common they have been reported to be found mostly below standard issue ore detection range. Deep scans reveal small deposits of Cobalt, Uranite, and Platnium can be found deeper beneath the surface levels. Magnesium scans have also been shown to exist at deeper levels but in much larger pockets than all other known resources. Gravity seems on par with most standard earth like planets and thus standard land vehicles are a desired means of travel across much of the planet's surface. Since much of IK006-FL-U is a frozen wasteland there is little to no shortage of available hydrogen.

Overall Threat Assessment
Survival rating is far more harsh than most earth like planets due to air quality, freezing winds, and extremely high populations of dangerous carnivores. Much of the elevated terrain renders air thruster travel impossible while the lower valleys and flat lands make it ideal which may result in sudden and unexpected loss of control resulting in possible injury or death. Magnesium and Platinum can be difficult to find making establishing a foothold against hostiles difficult as ammunition of any type will be scarce unless explorers invest time in locating these hidden ore veins. Due to the number of wildlife attacks it is also possible to burn through ammo at a faster rate than you can produce it. Since Cobalt is also very difficult to find it should be noted that making heavy armor to establish durable fortifications will also be challenging.

Early 2025 update

It's been quite awhile since I've last played or modded SE content. For a few years something was seriously wrong with my computer and I was unable to access any steam community pages including the workshop.

If anyone has any solutions, fixes, or want to modify THIS planet feel free to do so as long as you give credit and mention the original content/mod. This permission only applies for this planet and any planet that has this 2025 notification in their description. Modification and re-uploads of some planets created jointly between myself and creator KOBB may not be subjected to re-upload and modification due to those planets being his property. See the description of my other planets and look for this 2025 notification too see if those planets are open to modification and re-upload permissions.

On a side note: I hope the creation and customization of planets becomes an actual in game feature in Space Engineers 2 down the road. I no longer remember the first thing about modding planets after all this time. It's just been far too long and I'm not sure I'll ever get back into learning the ropes of modding when SE2 reaches that point in development.
