Kargatua: Poly Centuri System

[Kevin_kerman]

There will also be Kargatua: To Close For Comfort which will add

• Yaqq, a lava planet incredibly close to Kargatua
• Inferno, a lava planet with an atmosphere, but a very thin one, orbits Reo, and at one point, might become habitable
• Kraket, a hot Jupiter with only 2 moons
  • Jeiq, a small lava moon of Kraket
  • Odet, a small odd moon
• Jris, a large lava world really close to Cynus
• Lavis, a new moon for magnus

Any suggestions

Maybe a tidally locked world, half burnt, half frozen, and a slice of life in the middle.

[Kevin_kerman]

Ooh, that sounds neat

[Kevin_kerman]

new poll!

[Kevin_kerman]

I will do a texture revamp for most of the celestial bodies( not gas giants)

there is a bug with some gas giants that will also be fixed in the next update

 

Jodi, I do, and lav will also get lava Lakes oceans and rivers

[Kevin_kerman]

I wall also increase the size of Kargatua and Korgotua

I will start adding biomes,starting with Kory

[Kevin_kerman]

a trailer will be posted on my YouTube channel before 1.0 is released

[Kevin_kerman]

Update 0.5 "Into Darkness"

will go live on Hopefully Saturday or Sunday

It will add

Spoiler

• Kargatua
• Korgotua
• Tremble
• Cynus
• Gargatua
• Magnus
• Reo
• Bug fixes
• Kory
• New moons
• Wormholes

 

Update 1.0 will add some other features, which will not be showcased just yet, but will be shown in the trailer

Update 1.0 will definitely add 2 sub-moons of melf though, and a new moon of coronia, called Goos, an Atmospheric moon with hydrocarbon oceans that has property's similar to eve

update 0.5 will remove oranert, I will add a new star in a later update that oranert will orbit.

[Kevin_kerman]

Update 0.5 will have texture updates for Jodi, Ido, Lav, Fooms, Jeroga, Jeor, Rewt, and a new sunspot texture for poly, there will be more in update 1.0, and all gas giants will get better textures(including rings, Normal textures, and color)

I will also add sunfix

I just had a new idea that might stretch the realm of possibility, but what if there was an abnormally large rocky planet 3,000 kilometers in radius and a ice planet 3,800 kms in radius and they were binary, let me know what you guys think!

That it does.

In the right conditions, a earth mass planet can become a gas giant.

I don’t know what odd conditions could cause that.

Fun idea, though.

[Kevin_kerman]

yeah, I think that the limit is like 10 earth masses, so this could theoretically be possible as this would be like 5-10 kerbin masses

I think tyrant is like 8 Kerbin masses.

Maybe make it really low density? (Low geeASL)

[Kevin_kerman]

yeah, that's what I was thinking, wow I did not realize tyrant was 8 kerbin masses

[Kevin_kerman]

a few oblate moons and planets are coming in update 0.5!

If so, is there any chance you could move Poly to the other side of its orbit at Year 1? This would enable a Grand Tour mission with Beyond Jool installed to continue to the Poly system with relatively little effort. Otherwise, you'd have to wait a hundred and fifty years. It looks like this can be done by changing the epoch (in seconds) to 1210000000000 instead of 0.

and @Kevin_kerman, just set the meanAnomalyAtEpoch to 180 because messing with epoch can\will break save files.

i will not do that because i am adding supermassive blackholes that will mess with you (they are around 4-5 times that of kcalbeloh)

[Kevin_kerman]

I am almost done with update 0.5, it will be posted on GitHub in a few days

[Kevin_kerman]

I had to make the blackholes smaller because the game kept complaining about it

[Kevin_kerman]

I will probably just post on GitHub for every update and space dock only for the important ones eg 1.0, 1.5

[Kevin_kerman]

I just made a texture for Orto, I also made Goos not have any liquid on its surface and instead have a atmosphere of chlorine

[Kevin_kerman]

Release 0.5 is almost ready!!

[Kevin_kerman]

Release 0.5 is on github!
