This is an epic planet, though every once in a while I have to un-install and reinstall it to fix the textures.

For anyone working i can confirm this planet still works in 2025. Ore generates, wind and solar energy work as well, i tested this planet myself in an empty world. Theres alot of misunderstanding going on. Wind and solar will not show as generating power if there is nothing to use that power, i tested wind turbines and panels by placing them on the planet surface and then placing down a bunch of warfare batteries and went into the control panel and confirmed they were generating energy. Hope this helps anyone struggling.

Why the hell do I keep seeing comments asking about copper on these planet mods??? Copper isn't a resource in Space Engineers.

I know the comments are from years ago, but still, wtf.
cryptofurball75 30 Apr, 2023 @ 1:57pm 
Does this still work?
Krizzoula 6 Feb, 2022 @ 11:16am 
Wait does this mean you can only get iron, silver and gold no copper?

Shouldnt i be able to see the surface of the planet when i land on it like with the default earth like planet? When i try to land its just bright glowing blue, like th sun is behind the planet causing a glare off the atmosphere, however the sun is directly behind me and should reflect off the surface of the planet making it very visible.

Update or alternative with Jakaria's Water mod?
Soulfood 26 Dec, 2020 @ 5:56pm 
@MTLMODS this looks great and I look forward to exploring Kavac.
You have a lot of experience modding planets.... I'm learning, and want to make a realistic Europa-type with ice crust, deeeeep ocean,(using water mod) & rocky core. Do you think that's feasible??

I love this planet! and about the exploring part, well indeed I did find something, a huge heightmap overlap that lasts for kilometers and made my character clip through the ground. In case you have noticed this and are like past me and wish to know how tf to fix it, heres a tutorial dr octanagapus made to fix it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqDh8BvipwY

Still, I freaking love the ambient here, its so calm.

Thanks @Ciiborgz, I also appreciate you liking my work. Updates coming soon so stay tuned. Most will have some texture rework. All will have weather patterns, and some will get new grass additions such as flowers, etc.
Ciiborgz 22 Jul, 2020 @ 8:56am 
Really appreciate your work. I came back to Space Engineers and wanted to build a custom system and am almost only using your planets. Most planets are still back in 2019 or worse yet, 2016.
SMU  [author] 2 Jul, 2020 @ 12:43pm 
Yes indeed, they will once I finish updating them.
I recommend you check out "SMU Planets" collection, as there is where I announce anything related to all my planets, wether it's upcoming ones or updates, etc. This way you'll know for sure what I'm up to.
Cheers!

Hey MLTMods, any plans to support weather from the sparks of the future update with your planets?
SMU  [author] 28 May, 2020 @ 1:41pm 
No there isn't any ice here, it's too warm to be able to form some ice. Anyway, I will be updating all planets, maybe on the next release you will find Ice somewhere :)
Drav3n ZA 27 May, 2020 @ 4:51am 
Finding it quite difficult to get ice here. Lol, is there ice on the planet? :)
ECGadget 18 May, 2020 @ 8:45am 
Will do if needed! I shall make sure the thumbnail is modified too, thank you!
SMU  [author] 18 May, 2020 @ 7:04am 
Be my guest, just make sure you use your own thumbnail as well.
ECGadget 26 Mar, 2020 @ 9:24am 
@MLTMods Hello! Do you mind if I upload an edited version of this planet, with Better Stone configured, for use on season 2 of my series? Full credit will be given, of course!
SMU  [author] 24 Jan, 2020 @ 5:44pm 
Yup, no Cobalt here. Only Iron, Silver and Gold. Don't remember correctly but there might be some Cobalt within some surface rocks.
Henderson 24 Jan, 2020 @ 5:10pm 
Can't find any cobalt anywhere :(

UPDATE 2 / SE 1.193+
-------------------------------------------------
a) Updated the code to the new version

Nothing much really just made it work for the latest version of the game.
Everything should work correctly. I've spawned this without issues ( pink textures, etc. )
SMU  [author] 14 Jan, 2020 @ 11:32am 
@Sarekh, aye great to know you found it, I was wondering how long before someone found it.

@Rocimamadon:) It does not replace the earth planet

@RetroLogi ® Can't remember from the top of my head, but this should be 2 lines of code in one of the files. I'll let you know
Sarekh 17 Dec, 2019 @ 2:09am 
I found the thing to be found - well done!
Just wish I had found it earlier. Built a whole world on the planet, will have to incorporate that as well ^^
JustSpiffy 1 Dec, 2019 @ 9:10am 
Does it replace the earth like planet?
RetroLogi 27 Nov, 2019 @ 6:01am 
I'm trying to remove the Mineral Rocks present on the surface of planets, What should I change to do it?
SMU  [author] 6 Aug, 2019 @ 1:29pm 
Can't really remember, so that's why I gave a size range. I think 100km was the measurement that it was designed for, nevertheless if you feel that you need to open flat areas more, then go with 110km. You can as well set it to your own liking or needs.
Viper 31 Jul, 2019 @ 6:41pm 
What planet size, precisely, was the heightmap designed on?
SMU  [author] 26 Jul, 2019 @ 10:51am 
@Vento, hi I think is related to the loading of the planets. It seems sometimes they don't load correctly, only showing a low quality voxel surface, ignoring the hi res terrain map. What I usually do is spawn the planet and let it stand there for a bit, before going in with the character. This allows it to load fully. Not sure why this happens, but it has happened to me before with all planets.
Vento 24 Jul, 2019 @ 9:34am 
Hi, I have a problem with rock mining. when I dig the pieces of rock fall out of the voxel and I can't collect them. video https://youtu.be/YAcW4jMzTog
TurbulentTurtle 24 Jun, 2019 @ 4:29pm 
We should make a kebab planet, with like no uranium and a lot of silver or something weird like that or make an asteroid shaped like a kebab
SMU  [author] 20 Jun, 2019 @ 8:26am 
Yes. ;)
Pred 19 Jun, 2019 @ 8:22pm 
@MLTMods
No problem!
Is it visible from the surface at least? :P
SMU  [author] 19 Jun, 2019 @ 10:50am 
@Pred, hi. It's classified information ;) hehe.
Thanks for liking my mods. I'll try to keep up!

@KRAIDEN, that planet wouldn't last long. I'd probably eat half of it ;)
краиден 17 Jun, 2019 @ 7:16am 
kplanet kebab
Pred 12 Jun, 2019 @ 4:24pm 
Can I get a hint on the thing to be found on Kavac? :Khappy:
By the way I love your mods. I made a star system server with all your planets and moons, they are amazing. Keep it up!
Shuruna 11 May, 2019 @ 9:46am 
Thanks for the update :)
SMU  [author] 29 Apr, 2019 @ 1:34pm 
UPDATE 1 / SE 1.190+
-------------------------------------------------
a) Updated the code to the new version
b) Added Wind property
c) Fixed a grass issue
Nightchill 14 Apr, 2019 @ 5:43am 
Absolutely!! Many thanks MLTMods
SMU  [author] 14 Apr, 2019 @ 5:13am 
@ShadowsEdge, sure you may do that, the only thing I ask is for you to use your own image, and well of course a link to the original. So if you're ok with this, be my guest.

@Shuruna, I will be checking that out. I'm trying to get all of my planets updated again, but haven't found the time yet. So you might find some issues with some of them. Hopefully, by the end of the month I'll have a few more planets updated, this one included.

@| n f a m o u s, thanks !!! :)
Nightchill 12 Apr, 2019 @ 3:15am 
Is it ok to use your fantastic planets in the creation of a scenario? It is mostly for my own personal use but may publish it if it turns out well (credit given). It would have to have ore mapping changes as I'm wanting to incorporate Gen's Blocks and Ores in to the scenario. It may also need some atmospheric/gravity modification to match the needs of the scenario.
Shuruna 30 Mar, 2019 @ 6:15am 
Do you know why the wind turbines don't work on the planet? :)
| n f a m o u s 24 Mar, 2019 @ 7:44am 
Fantastic!
SMU  [author] 10 Mar, 2019 @ 12:45pm 
It should work, nevertheless, it will get updated.
FPC 24 Feb, 2019 @ 7:33pm 
Does it work next update?
SMU  [author] 20 Feb, 2019 @ 2:50am 
@Darks33d, thank you, glad you like it. More coming soon. stay tuned.
Darks33d 20 Feb, 2019 @ 12:49am 
I really like the open flat lands. It makes wheeled transport more viable. The "muddy" river water texture is also an interesting addition. Thumbs up.
SMU  [author] 19 Feb, 2019 @ 5:33am 
Oh ok, this one will be featured in the Tian7 system, where planet Tropez-R4 is to be found ( ice planet )
Still 6 planets more to go on this system, to have it finished.
Cheers!
REAPER 18 Feb, 2019 @ 9:24am 
Yup :)
SMU  [author] 18 Feb, 2019 @ 8:35am 
@KyloSkeng, hey there, you mean custom solar system?
REAPER 18 Feb, 2019 @ 7:55am 
Sweet planet, highly recommended for a custom [Solar]
