Cantra's Addons

I have recently been getting back into space engine aswell as creating solar systems. I will be using this thread to post my mods and addons. I will be working on alternate solar systems, solar systems of my own, and more.

Please do not edit these or repost these without crediting me, thank you.

For this solar system it involves a concept that was featured in the book "What if the Earth had Two Moons?" by Neil Commins. Specifically this solar system features the concept of Anillo and Noom, Anillo is an alternate Earth in which it's moon revolves around in the opposite way, much like Triton does in our solar system. However I took it a step further and added my own variations of planets and moons within the solar system, and added some extras.

These mods are intended to work with Spaceengine 0.980, I do not know if they work with any other versions.

I took some screenshots as previews for this mod. This is Anillo, and Noom.

And another screenshot of the planet Sullivan, and it's moon of Heidi.

Here is my first iteration of an alternate solar system. This is the black hole sun. I intend on making an alternate solar system for every star type, at some point. To get to it, type in 'B.Sol'.

Made the Neutron Star sun, it isn't much different from the black hole sun system. To get to it, it is 'Q.Sol'.

I think that I have messed up the sc files for the Neutron star sun, so I will be fixing that sometime. I decided to kill 4 birds with 1 stone and do the white dwarf, red dwarf, K type, and F type suns. The files with the 'sc' at the end go in the stars folder, and the other files go in the planets folder.

Like the black hole sun and the neutron star sun, the White Dwarf sun isn't that much different, all of the planets are cold wastelands. Get to it with 'D.Sol'.

The M type sun looks different, though it's planets are not that much different from the other previous suns, get to it with 'M.Sol'.

With the K type sun we are finally starting to see some differences in temperatures, Mercury and Venus might be more hospitable. Get to it with 'K.Sol'.

The F type sun makes the inner solar system pretty much uninhabitable due to how hot it is. For the next few suns, this will be a common trend.

Here we have the A class sun, it is reaching the point to where Jupiter's moons are becoming habitable, however I will be making a variant of this later on today. As usual the 'dc' at the end of the file means it belongs in stars.

This is the B class sun viewed from B.Neptune, we are reaching the point where the moons of Uranus and Neptune are the only 'habitable' places in the solar system by temperature alone. The inner solar system is a hot mess.

The O class system is starting to go into the realm of stupidity, and marks the end of the main sequence alternate suns. Even O.Eris is at a temperature of around 1500 degrees Celcius, rendering the entire system uninhabitable. I might add an Earth to this system later on to mark how uninhabitable it truly is.

This is the Wolf Rayet star system, the sun is a star with the mass of 310 suns, however I have edited the orbits of the planets to also be 310 times larger than they are so that everything wouldn't be scorched. It is located slightly above the Galactic plane.

I made a solar system around Deneb. The giant versions of the solar system are going to be taking place around existing stars.

Very interesting. Is there going to be a solar system where the Sun has been replaced with a red giant?

Cantra · 28 Mar 2020 16:22

Someone else already made something like that. I apologize for being late. I made a star system around Arcturus.
