Planet Pack Spreadsheet-interested????

[Klapaucius]

I've downloaded a bunch of planet packs recently and have been having fun using Mission Builder to explore new worlds.  However, I was losing track of what is what and which had atmospheres and oceans etc.  So, I started an Excel spreadsheet with most (not all) information on the planet packs I have downloaded that are more or less compatible with my KSP version. I realize there are wikis out there, but I like having all that information in a one page chart.  It helps me choose where to go.

Is this something anyone else would have an interest in? I can put it up on Google Docs when I get a few more things entered, though it would be cool to make it an open document that could be added to.

So far I have data entered for the:

Stock System

Gameslink

Gallileo

Kerbol Origins

After Kerbin

Valentine

Dwarf Planet Plus

Kronkus

Outer Planets

Extrasolar

Other Worlds

The data includes:

Body name, radius and circumference, rotational period, gravity, escape velocity, atmospheric info in applicable (and whether air-breathing engines will work), whether it has an ocean, etc.  Most, but not all of the stuff you get if you go into the planet info tab in the tracking station. So nothing new here,  just a different format and putting it together all in one place.

I'm also considering doing a long-term thread where I take some of my myriad of planes and create short videos of flying on alien worlds--for fun and for a reference and as a shameless promo of my oddball craft on KerbalX.

I don't use planet packs personally, but it sounds like a good idea anyways!

IMO, any planet-pack listing would be sadly incomplete without New Horizons:

Spreadsheet... well, OK, might be more comfortable than hunting for all the bodies in the tracking station, not sure what it could add.

What I really want is a hot juicy porkchop!

Like this:

A good transfer window planner for the outer systems...

Edit: Not a mod. External. I'm already running out of RAM when playing KSP.

This is the opposite of what you asked for, but...

I'm pretty sure most transfer planner mods are pretty light on RAM alone... I myself use Transfer Window Planner. Kerbal Alarm Clock will give you something close to the optimal date of the transfer but not a porkchop. Mechjeb also has a porkchop planner but doesn't provide as much help in plotting as TWP does (TWP will show you the angles) and there is another mod that will actually make the maneuver node for you but I'm not sure what it's called.

TWP and KAC are both fairly light on RAM as far as I know, and if you already play with MJ then you already have porkchops.

Great.
