True Mars Atmosphere

Description
Sorry for the lack of an image, there's not exactly much to show with this. :P

Basically this does what it says, it replaces Mars in game with mine which has real life gravity values and almost non-existant atmosphere (0.06%), making atmospheric thrusters totally useless. This one also includes some very slight oxygen values, in par with real life oxygen rates, however the decimal range is so small that I think the game just rounds it to 0.0 anyway.

Reference Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_Mars

Now for some detailed info that I typed earlier while making this;

Real Mars Gravity: 3.711 m/s² (0.376g)
Mars Atmospheric Density: 0.06% Earth
Mars Oxygen Density: 0.00086477521767458390096546822247231

Save files that have Mars already placed, will need to be altered for gravity value to be changed. Atmosphere density and oxygen will update on all pre-placed planets.

Mod has been updated to the latest version of the game. I cannot fix the scenario that starts with Mars due to the fact that the Scenario starts the planet with a specific gravity, however the planet's atmosphere is updated properly. You'll have to manually edit the save file to fix the gravity however. Any newly placed versions of Mars, will be completely correct with this mod's values though.

I can look into it sometime. I haven't opened the game in a very long time though. Should be an easy fix, just takes motivation. I mean, I barely have 18 subscribers so I haven't really tried. xD

Any chance for update? Or are you fed up already with Keen breaking mods (totally understand).
mazrados 15 Jul, 2020 @ 2:10pm 
It seems they do it often.
Tried also another similar mod (Real Mars) and it also does not work. However I did not check in Mars scenario, so maybe it's only intended for this one.

Well, I guess KeenSWH fucked up planets at some point then. They like to fuck things up a lot and then refuse to fix anything.

I guess this mod needs update.
If I use it in game in progress it does not change anything and if I start new star system game, there is no option to choose Mars.

I'm not sure how wind turbines will work with this. I made this before them.
mazrados 15 Jul, 2020 @ 7:43am 
I guess wind turbines are also useless?

I don't use it on Mars anyway, because I like realism and in real world it's useless on Mars.
And it's more chellanging so more interesting :)

Great :) Thanks for info. I must try it than :)

Will work with any world that has the default Mars world in it.
