please update mod

Would it be possible to have a configuration file to change the minerals, I've seen some mods with them in AppData, I'd love to use this mod only with uranium, but its files are as .bin making it impossible to use.

@emperor I'd recommend not using them together. They are essentially the same script just tweaked.

Hi entspeak, i've tried to use your ceres and your black hole mod's together. If Ceres spin-gravity script is active then the black hole script no longer deals damage to grids. Everything else seems to be working.

@Kelnontealth - If you upload posted for the server to pull from and don't make it publicly available (make it "Friends-Only" okay. If it needs to be public, then permission won't be granted. Thanks!

Hey, we would like to use this on a private server with just the Uranium removed (we keep it space only) - assuming we back link to here for the actual planet and just have it posted for the server to pull from, any issues with us doing so?

Is this safe to use in a game currently? Looks really good.
entspeak  [author] 5 Mar, 2019 @ 4:50am 
No. This is a mod, not a game save, so there are no structures.

I hope this has no atmosphere texture because I have the Black Sky of Death bug

Finally, I found some mods based off The Expanse.

@Jacof33 - It’s a form of artificial gravity. Put a ball on a string and spin in a circle. The ball will pull away from you. So, spin gravity is created by spinning Ceres fast enough that anything on it is pulled away from the center. In The Expanse, the Ceres Station is built underground and the floors are what we would call the ceiling on Earth.

@Jacof33 It's basicly a centrifugal force caused by rotation of Ceres. It's present on any object in rotational move (for example even here on Earth, but Earth's gravity is pulling harder in oposite direction, thus we are kept on surface)

whats spin gravity

!!!+++!!!
entspeak  [author] 19 Aug, 2017 @ 6:09am 
Yeah, I found the way to do it. I just haven't published the world yet.
venator2070 19 Aug, 2017 @ 4:10am 
Also you say there that you are looking for a way to make ceres 9,5 km. You can do that sorta.... it has to be a world though. A friend made a 60m planet for me https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/229936474743767051/348239737393381397/image.png to make gravity in my dyson sphere.
entspeak  [author] 18 Aug, 2017 @ 7:47pm 
Oh, well, then... ahem. Have at it. Just give credit. :)
venator2070 15 Aug, 2017 @ 2:19am 
I asked him and he said you apparently made some modifications so he said to ask you^^
entspeak  [author] 14 Aug, 2017 @ 1:48pm 
@venator2070 - Digi created the gravity script. Best to ask him and be sure to give him the credit.
venator2070 14 Aug, 2017 @ 12:40pm 
@entspeak me and superhappyalien are currently working on a construct similar to a dyson sphere. If it is ok with you we'd like to use that reverse gravity script to be able to walk on the inside of our base asteroid. Since you are abscent for a month now we'll use it in our faction (only accecible for friends) and give you full credtit. If you don't wish us using it pls contact us.
entspeak  [author] 17 Jun, 2017 @ 6:21pm 
thanks!
superhappyalien 17 Jun, 2017 @ 5:38pm 
Good work here :)

I'm so happy to see The Expanse moving into Space Engineers! F yeah!
jackik 12 Mar, 2017 @ 4:37pm 
can you somehow add both? i don't know about formating. but the alligning stuff might work with the positive valuse while keeping the negative ones in effect.
entspeak  [author] 12 Mar, 2017 @ 4:35pm 
@jackik - Yeah, negative values for natural gravity don't seem to work - it resets it to positive. For the regular version of Ceres, I've added an insignificant amount of gravity.
jackik 12 Mar, 2017 @ 4:31pm 
very interesting idea. how come you have these issues? did you use something else than the natural gravity used on other "planets"? No idea what else could be used though.
If so then perhaps it's just the game engine that can't cope with negative/positive values at certain places.
If not then consider adding a very insignificant ammount of natural gravity.

i find the magboot and character auto allign quite nice actually. it also makes sense.
entspeak  [author] 8 Mar, 2017 @ 4:37pm 
Ceres has insignificant gravity. In the sci-fi series THE EXPANSE (books and TV), Ceres has been "spun up." Meaning that they found a way to get it to rotate fast enough to create a centrifugal force equal to -3g at the surface - like spinning a basketball... things below the surface will be pushed toward the surface and things on the surface will fly off.
StrelokFreeman 8 Mar, 2017 @ 1:17pm 
What the heck is "spin gravity"?
entspeak  [author] 1 Mar, 2017 @ 6:13pm 
@Zucon - I don't understand? This is a mod planet... you have to paste it into a new world. Or, if you are already using my Mercury to Ceres world, you just need to replace the Ceres mod planet with this one in the mod list. Does that make sense?
Zucon 1 Mar, 2017 @ 6:10pm 
is this add it auto or i have to add to my world
