I believe you mean this one?

A new article about the TRAPPIST-1 system. The planet h is completely confirmed now - its orbital period is 18.764 days. Also, rotation period of the star is measured - 3.3 days. All data is added to the updated addon pak. The link in the opening post is updated also.

TRAPPIST-1.pak

Strange thing - I have to reduce the star luminosity back to it original value of 0.000525 (bolometric, not visual). In my 0.98 installation it gives correct temperatures on planets (not accounting for greenhouse and albedo).

I also forced atmosphere and clouds on some planets, so they are looking more realistic.

Rotational axis of the star have some fake values, just to make its equator coincide with orbits of planets, which is very likely. BTW, I found a bug in 0.98 - parameters PoleRA and PoleDec gives incorrect result, probably related with a known bug of wrong orientation of the equatorial grid. So our own Sun has incorrect rotation too. It is fixed for 0.981.

PS: I renamed this thread to TRAPPIST-1, because it is completely about this system. The new exoplanets thread is here.
SpaceEngineer Than You! Only one small prob: After I install the latest update I get this strange error message in console:
► Show Spoiler
Also trappist -1 appears twice in F3 list. ? I delete cahce folder after install.How stupid I am - I now noticed it is a bug of 0.980 and fixed for next release - ignore my post.

Sorry I didn't see your second clarifying question TheRedstoneHive
Trappist-1h transit photo on Twitter
I hope I got it right this time for ya!

First, WE NEED TO STOP FINDING NEW PLANETS, NASA!!!! Second, We need to find a way to get there!

Mudkip909, NASA isn't to only one finding planets, you know.

Not only that, but the reasons for finding the planets have little to do with wanting to go to them.

I made a planet addon just for TRAPPIST-1 e - It adds onto the TRAPPIST-1 plugin made by SpaceEngineer, and will add on to the TRAPPIST-1 system that will be released in a future update.

I feel like some people don't want to find new planets because it means constantly updating our programs.  It's a pain.  They should just do a mission to detect new planets every 5 years so we don't have to keep updating everything so often :P

Trappist-1 planetary system was already in 0.9.8? I downloaded an add on for it someone sent me, I hope I didn't overwrite anything.

edit- I think this is the same add-on they sent me.

Yes it is, but on the date of 0.98 release, only 3 planets were known in the system.

I just looked through the .pak I have, it only has 7 planets, does the above update include the "h" planet?  I actually did not even know there was an "h" planet until I read this thread- SE is on the cutting edge! :-)
