200 Stars: Dev log

Well, Horus, at least he asks questions about how to do stuff rather than steal builds...

... and him being Chinese, of course means he struggles significantly to communicate in English as casually as we do.

How do you know I am a Chinese?

You are right I am not a native English speaker

 

[BANDWITH]

and according to approximate calculations, how many textures will be in it and what will be the file size?)

Not much, a lot of textures will be reused because lots of textures slow down how fast the game opens.

BREAKING NEWS

@BANDWITH’s Phone has been located!
It was under a piece of paper on the printer.
A SINGLE PIECE OF PAPER, FOLKS, AND IT WAS LOST FOR THREE MONTHS.

He seems to be surprised that you found him.

Heh, that’d be one of the oddest features of the Moto G6

So should I use chinglish?

 

[TtTOtW]

So should I use chinglish?

Haha, no. But what I mean is that while you may understand the sentences we write, you struggle to see when it is a joke or when someone is serious.

 

[James Brown]

Haha, no. But what I mean is that while you may understand the sentences we write, you struggle to see when it is a joke or when someone is serious.

I barely understand and…
Yes because I am NOT a native English speaker and I don't have much opportunity to hear someone speak english,my parents are worst in speaking english ,and…are you a native English speaker?

 

[James Brown]

Haha, no. But what I mean is that while you may understand the sentences we write,you struggle to see when it is a joke or when someone is serious.

Yes yes yes that's my problem, is it OK to use language instead of English here? Because I saw someone who write other language but Gurren understand that language so if I write Chinese is there someone understand?

 

[Roger Jolly]

Someday we will all speak Mandarin and write Arabic

You can start a Chinese Thread

 

[James Brown]

Actually,my English is better than Mandarin(we call it Pitonghua),I speak Cantonese, if I speak mandarin,it will be difficult for me

 

[Roger Jolly]

Actually,my English is better than Mandarin,so guess what do I speak?

Um, keeping in the Asian?...Vietnamese?
Is my wild guess, or Korean rounds out the probability

Your English is excellent by me

 

[James Brown]

It is good to talk to someone in the wee hours

 

[TtTOtW]

James brown we have chinese members. But we keep to English so we can all try to understand each other.

 

[In_thrust_we_trust]

Is aerosis in there? I think it was a class f

A SINGLE PIECE OF PAPER, FOLKS, AND IT WAS LOST FOR THREE MONTHS.

Here we find ourselves somewhat beyond the minumum release date. Let me show you what has been completed so far!

"What,"
I hear some of you ask.
"That is not the 2,000+ planets I asked for! You're a fraud! An imbecile! This inadequate delivery--"
BE QUIET
In my spreadsheet I call the Starforge, this is the planet making interface, and how it works:

• Inputtype: input of a type of planet, listed on the left
• Inputmass: mass of the planet in kilograms
• Outputradius: the radius given by these two equations: V=M/d and r=(3V/4π)^(1/3)
• Outputgravity: the gravity given by M/r^2
• Hasatmo: determines whether or not the planet is substantial enough to have an atmopshere
• Atmodensity: determines the density of the atmosphere
• Terraintype: chooses a terrain idea[1] based on the type of planet and the atmosphere.[2]
• Terraintype2: same as Terraintype, but a second time
• Systemtoken: determines the "price" of a planet. Stars are assigned a number of tokens based on their mass and location[3], which are spent on planets until there are no tokens left.

[1] Things such as mountain ranges, rocks, plains, etcetera.
[2] If a planet has a substantial atmosphere like Earth's, there will be no craters, and terrain will be more rounded.
[3] There are "stellar nebula" (determined by me) that decide whether or not a system will get extra helpings of tokens. One nebula may be more rich than another, and thus have more planets and moons.

Gas Giants will use a different interface, but will still use tokens.

Very interesting System! Too bad the pack is so delayed, I would love to see it in action

The Starforge is up and running! Its a bit of a uh..
nightmare
at the moment but I'll fix it up soon.

So what does all of this garbage needed for?
All of this infrastructure is set up so I can be lazy and have my computer make planets for me. The reason I'm having the spreadsheet input work in mass and density is because it restricts the computer to nice, realistic values instead of throwing out an unrealistic number such as 20g/cm^3. (I'm fairly certain you won't find a planet made entirely out of tungsten)

Next up is the gas planet interface, which is the same thing but it has different compositions such as Hydrogen/Helium, ices, etc. and will also put the size cap on gas giants due to electron degeneracy.

Stay tuned!

Oh nice system!

 

[BANDWITH]

Oh shit.
Once completed, the Starforge will allow me to make 1 solar system roughly every 20 minutes. Multiply that by 200...
2 3/4 days straight of making solar systems to reach the end goal.
Huh. I might want some volunteers.
