TESTING FOR Planet Value for Colonization

The primary focus for many players is to develop a colony which is suitable to their needs. Due to the randomness of planet types, finding suitable locations for colonization can be challenging. This page will give you basic information to efficiently find suitable colonization.

What is a colony?

A colony is a player-owned location outside of the inner 8 systems. Players can purchase a deed for the right to construct a colony on the surface of a planet or moon. Since there is no existing land mass (outside of the inner 8 systems) that has oxygen in the atmosphere, the only method for colonization is to build domes in a colony on the surface of a planet or moon. A colony can have thousands of domes.

Include picture of Prolapserium.

Planet Shape

Picture of hard jagged surfaces. Picture of planet with lots of liquid.

Atmosphere

Colonies need gasses for domes. The best distribution of gasses is an atmosphere has the elements Nitrogen (N), Oxygen (O), and Hydrogen (H) available in some form since combined elements can be split into their primary components.

For example: << PUT IN CHART? >> CH4 can be split into Carbon gas and Hydrogen gas. NO3 can be split into Nitrogen gas and Oxygen gas. CH4 can be split into Carbon gas and Hydrogen gas. H2O

Pressure - Too high and it will take longer to empty a dome of bad gas.

Soil

Geo 5. Concentrations.

Silicon concentration determines the yield for all other resources. The higher the silicon content, the lower the yield.

Asteroid Belts Gas Planets

Colony

One colony can hold thousands of domes.
