(Update) Stellar Neighborhood v1.7 - 94 Bodies

@Samps0n Sirius Bc is the flattest of all the planets. You could orbit 100m above the surface

Salt flats on a planet for crazy land races

Does this have the issue of only one light emitting source as far as solar panels ar concerned, cus i dont think the sun will provide even the weakest light in this, the only true stellar neighbourhood I have ran accross tho I am kinda new. And as far as the way I am taking this info in that the sun is the only thing not orbiting something, is this how the laws work in the program? You mentioned the barycentres and does that mean they need it to be programmed in leaving it free to calculate the other orbit? They each have individual gravity listed and I wondering if you had to come up with ithe barycentres yourself and if so are you an astrophysics expert? Does the program not always require the most massive body to orbit the smaller body or is that just the g/s2? As for an idea I have been wanting to practice deflecting, mining or using asteroids to build what I believe will incorporate the from end of our first true interstellar ships that are manned, asteroids. Maybe the ability to be able to have them small enough to move, close enough to get to from any rocky body that an early interstellar society would find practical, i dont require that all Droo exiting traffic lookout for the lighthouse on my ship hazard, now that would be cool, while not as effective as a Beacon in TRL but in-game that could have really cool effect. Would the lighthouse part even spawn in our games or is that a whole different can of worms?, one last thing you pointed out hundreds of days to get to %/c, considering you can't live for 3-9 months on under 8, or even 4 G's I would be confident that acceleration time begins 8-ish month maybe but most would likely accelerate/decelerate at 1-1.5 G's as tolerated, as a means of gravity

@SamTheFox I edited the post on PC

how did you get passed the 7 pic limit 0_0

I also made a system inspired by the Stellar neighbourhood u made. Its called the Gallo Ceti System.

How do u get the planets semi-major axis's over 1mil gm? pls tell

@GrandmasterPotato Describe the issue please so we can help.

How can anyone download this, it is glitchy on this page alone

New update. 3 new stars, Teegarden's Star, Van Maanen's Star, and 61 Cygni. Total body count now is 128, up from 94. Added Pluto-Charon. Linked are the new system maps. Update soon tm.

Are like the ones of the ksp mod galaxies unbound

Teegarden's Star and one other mystery system in the works...a teaser for the next expansion... ;)

@wettoaster It's a problem with the game, at high velocities and large distances, trajectories disappear. What you've got to do is burn fast enough that you get an intercept with your target's SOI, the minimum required should be around 100 km/s for the farthest star in the pack. Once you do that, wait until you hit its SOI, and then course adjustments should be easier. The faster the better. Same goes for brachistochrone type transfers to planets. Once you get close to a system, try toggling planet orbits off and on and if you are close enough they will return as normal.

Here's a guide, it's long, but hopefully it clears up anything.

uuuuuuuuuuh how come my ships flight path, and the path of the planets orbit disappear? like the moment my craft exists the sol system, its flight path vanishes and doesnt come back, makin it a little impossible to accurately fly to even alpha centauri

@sacr3dbac0n0 Ok, thanks for the information. Also, this is one of the best interstellar systems I have played, it really feels like a stock version of the Simple Universe. You and @lordvader0219 keep up the good work.

@Gen3ralInterstel1ar There's no XML editor to place planets at the distances as in this pack. You have to edit the XML file of the system on PC

@lordvader0219 @sacr3dbac0n0 Do either of you know of any good XML editors? I've been looking into doing a something similar.

@sacr3dbac0n0 Yea, I used a moderate powered ion engine and got to 2,500Mm/s in 2,500x timewarp within seconds. Very nice.

@W1ll1amTr1stan I see what you mean now. You are burning without timewarp, yes? I would highly advise using ion engines as they can burn through high timewarp. With that, an acceleration or decelleration burn can take me just 30 seconds. Most of far future technology that would enable STL intersteller travel would take a couple hundreds of days to accelerate up to cruise speed as well.

@sacr3dbac0n0 Also acceleration is quite slow, it took me ~3.7 minutes to reach 128,000Km/s. That's not too bad but if I want to decelerate, it will take approximately the same time to go to 23Km/s speed or so.

@sacr3dbac0n0 Yea, I don't know about that. Considering my ship has no payload, it is only used for extreme range travel. It's still quite slow though.
