Kharak (not be mistaken with the planet from Homeworld) is a dying desert planet orbiting around Tomera star. It was discovered in 2097 by deep space explorers looking for a new home. It was named after a planet from a computer game because it's characteristics are fairly similar. 5/6 of the planet is covered by desert highlands with little to no atmosphere. Only Torin Valley is deep enough to have an atmosphere thick enough to sustain life. The origins of the valley is unknown but most probably it was formed by techtonic movements generated by it's long lost moon. Around 10 towns were built on the surface before almost all of them got destroyed in the Telvinian War in 2102. The largest one was Cobalt Town situated by Cobalt Lake, the only source of water on the planet.


- HD texture for roads
- Friction changes for roads
- Atmosphere tweaks
- Clouds altitude transition tweaks
- Fix lighting issues (mostly it's waiting for Keen...)

Navigate to your Steam library, go to "steamapps > workshop > content" and copy the folder named "1731305566" to your local Mod folder which can be found at "#userfolder#/AppData/Roaming/SpaceEngineers/". When you create the world, make sure you add the offline version (1731305566), then save it and try to edit it with SEToolbox. After that you can change it back to the online version.

This planet is not a replica of the planet Kharak from Homeland, it was just inspired by it. The planet was made mainly for the HydrogenWars server. Future updates may change characteristics of the planet based on demand of the server community.

You are allowed to reupload it on the workshop, change it's preferences or use it in your scenario or creations without my permission. All I ask is a little bit of credit via linking the original post in the description.
