Stellar Coherence

Stellar Coherence Mod This is my first "real" Mod for GalCiv 3. It's best used for people wanting to build "realistic" displays of milky way star maps. You are free to use it as resource in your mods for credits given. Have fun!

Does the following:

All changes apply to galaxy game and map creator!

1. imports Venus, Uranus and Neptune for Solar system 2. imports moons for Jupiter (Io) and Neptune (Triton), Uranus has a ring system 3. imports neutron stars, brown dwarfs and red dwarfs 4. imports 5 variations of main sequence star (0, B, A, F, G) 5. imports all three variations (yellow, blue, red) of giants, supergiants and hypergiants 6. removes purple stars from distribution, they are still available in the map ceator 7. modifies scale of all stellar objects to better reflect real life size difference

See screenshots for visual impression.

FAQ:

Why no Binary Star Systems?

Because the game allows for similar binary star systems only. I recommend building a custom map, which allows for placing two and more stars close to each other to form multiple star systems. Or, you wait until I've got my own impression of Milky Way done. Will the stars be formed when starting a new game?

Yes, they will, but recon that the giant stars take more then one tile, so planet distribution around them is limited. Will you expand on this?

Depends on what you want to have imported. I have ideas for pulsars, quasars and supernovaes, yet haven't figured how to do it though.

Are purple stars enabled?
