P-3986 Avidas

Description
P-3986 Avidas

This mod contains one celestial body: The planet P-3986 Avidas. Spawns well at any size (but intended for medium-large) and contains all ore types.

Avidas stands alone in the silence of space with no moons. It's essentially a big rock with a little gas on the surface. There's a thin atmosphere of mostly dust and CO2 (sorry no O2), but it's nothing to write home about. The surface is marred with giant scars that extend almost from pole to pole all across the planet. If you're a big space spider or a cyberdog and you're wondering where your friends are they're probably on this planet somewhere. Why would anyone come to this horrible place you ask? Um...do you like Uranium? Well dig ANYWHERE and you'll find it*.

*not responsible for meltdowns, thermonuclear wars or other society-ending uranium-related disasters.

Update 3-18-17: Replaced the original (now imcompatible) ground texture with a completely new one. There are still some atmosphere adjustments that need to be made, but the pink textures should be gone now.

That's why your arid rocky planets had such strong P-3986 Avidas vibes! I didn't know you created the original!

I don't remember the gravity for this planet specifically, but it's probably 1G (the same as the Keen Earthlike planet) or somewhere in that area. It's extremely rare for me to go above 1G gravity so you'll probably never run into this on any of my planets. If I were to make high gravity it would definitely warn you in the description.

Is the gravity suitable for jetpacks? I have been to some worlds where activating them just makes you slide downhill.

It's currently not possible to spawn grid items (pirate or otherwise) using the planet spawning system. The only way to get pirates is to manually add them using creative/Space Master.

Sounds great!

If I could one more question, any odds of seeing SPRT on the planet or do they more or less appear on all planets?

Yes although Keen never fixed the bug that caused that error I resized the planet so that it would load correctly.

D4V3C9000, Greetings.

I have been eyeing this for some time now and before I grab it and add it to my world, I wanted to ask about your prior post, can the planet be loaded currently if loaded to full size?

Will it load correctly?

Warning to anyone who uses this planet. Since I cannot get a response from Keen about if they plan to fix the bug that's preventing medium-sized planets from loading I must assume that they're not going to fix it. That means that I am forced to resize this to a full-sized planet. I didn't want to do this mostly because it will reconfigure the planet surface and most likely destroy anything that you currently have on the surface, but without a proper game fix I have no choice. You might want to make blueprints out of your bases just in case.

I figured it was an issue on SE's end, just thought I'd let you know. Very nice planet by the way, looks lovely in the daytime. Nighttime might need a bit of polish, but not sure there's much you can do about that.

Yes it's a bug and its been reported. The error described in the message does not apply to the heightmaps in question (they already are divisible by 8 then 4). There are no non-standard sized textures in this mod. Just hit ignore a bunch of times and it'll load correctly. Since what SE wants is already true there's not much I can do to fix it. We'll just have to hope they fix it in the patch tomorrow.
