Realistic Star System - Default Locations (Vanilla)

That did the trick, thanks

On the Space Engineers client the world appears under "Workshop". Create a world with it on your client and then upload the world to your server.

Hello, how do i set this up on a dedicated server? i added the mod to my server but cannot find the map anywhere while acessing my server via FTP.

ok cool, Thanks :D

@Sebforce116 To make planets bigger you'll need to edit the \SpaceEngineers\Content\Data\Scenarios.sbx file and change the scenario settings. Look for the section that looks like this:

<WorldGeneratorOperations>
<!--Planets Start-->
<Operation xsi:type="CreatePlanet" DefinitionName ="EarthLike">
<PositionCenter x="0" y="0" z="-0" />
<Diameter>120000</Diameter>
</Operation>
...

You can choose to copy the <Operation> tag or replace the contents of a tag depending on whether or not you can to keep the original. You can modify the position and diameter from here. You can also change the DefinitionName if you want to use a custom planet generator, it'll work as long as you remember to add the mod while creating the world, otherwise you'll just be left with empty space.

If I was creating a gas giant this way, I'd probably just add a 0 to the end of the diameter. They'll seem really big then!

for pandora

oh no not that, I just want a bigger gas giant, you know like 200km or something

@iprdn Keen won't let us touch the asteroid cutoff altitude, unfortunately.

Gravity with squared falloff (like in real life) is the only way to have stable orbits like in real life (that is, if SE weren't so buggy, making it impractical at best). What you mean by "orbit" is just sitting in space, which isn't very realistic at all. I would make the planet gravity go on forever if I could, but unfortunately, Keen also doesn't let us touch at what point the gravity cuts off, it's locked at 0.05 G.

By the way, you don't necessarily have to get outside of the gravity to build a space station. If you build a space station at 0.1 G, you get the bonus (or curse) of free gravity without needing generators!

@aaronfranke, it get ages to get to orbit, during this process I am flying through huge amount of asteroids in the planet gravity field - not very realistic at ll.
Defult gravity ranges was pretty good for this world model.
Asteroids too dense.a

@Sebforce116 They're actually the default size, but the gravity and position is tweaked.

I do know how to make gigantic planets, however they LAG SO BADLY that I do not recommend it. But, just for fun, I might make a truly real 1:1 scale solar system if somebody were to put an Earth model on the workshop (with continents and oceans like Europe and the Atlantic ocean etc) but there would be lag!
