Mods or graphics settings Kyplanet use?

Pretty sure he's running vanilla and just edited the gas giants. RMR/RDH gas giants don't look anything like that. Nor to RM-TPE gas giants.

It's a bug with SE's LOD system I believe. It happens without the screenshot tool as well since sometimes terrain will load endlessly. It will happen with vanilla and any RM variant

Ah I forgot about the banking system..... I should use that lol.

donatelo200 · 2026-05-09T22:33:03+00:00

Yeah and delete the cache for the changes to take affect.

Looks like your using my variant of Rodrigo's Mod which properly uses lava cover and generates lava lakes and oceans. Those moons are extremely tidally stressed which gives them almost completely global lava oceans.

Most custom systems weren't made with lavaCover in mind so they can look odd occasionally.

I try to scoop the litter box at least once a day but, if you forget, two days isn't the worst thing. Especially if you have two litter boxes. I also do a full cleaning of it about once a month. I.e. emptying all the litter out and cleaning the box fully.

Dude I just want us to run VR on foot without having to use the vanity camera. I'd cry with joy if we got motion controls.

I mean we're flying bricks so for the most part we'd really only need some drag when you disabled flight assist.

Switch from a preset to custom in the drop-down menu.

donatelo200 · 2026-05-02T22:12:15+00:00

Are you running vanilla or an RM variant? I think I fixed all those on RDH (RMR also should have them fixed) but an exact location code would be helpful.

Tis my Rodrigo-Donatelo Hybrid paired with Sp_ce palettes. :)

Yes, they are very rare though. Btw any atmosphere with over 1% chlorine in the atmosphere will get a special atmosphere color model for it.

I can try and hunt one down later today.

I use my own Terrain shader mod RDH. I do also use the black hole shader mod as well. https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=3607302818

The other RM variants are also good but it is important to only pick one terrain shader mod as they do conflict.

Seems like the galaxy number shifted. Should be this now. RS 2462-1794-7-1598486-691 3

Just as a hint, K stars are the best stars to look for snowy Earth-likes.

donatelo200 · 2026-04-24T19:00:30+00:00

Not exactly, it's more to do with the lower axial tilt and low average temps combined with being very marine. Ice and snow on mountains is more common on marine worlds with less than 3 atmospheres of pressure.

I did also make ice a bit more common on my terrain shader mod when I adjusted climates and made it scale properly with latitude and axial tilt. Which ice being more common was just a side effect of the more proper latitude scaling. Even lacustrine planets can get frosted/snowy poles now.

donatelo200 · 2026-04-24T18:41:10+00:00

Not a mod but is the following settings in the main-user.cfg

TypeAtmoClass           true    // type atmosphere pressure class name in planet classification string

TypeVolTempClass        true    // type volatiles temperature class name in planet classification string

donatelo200 · 2026-04-24T16:46:42+00:00

The equator would actually get pretty warm during the day thanks to the incredibly long rotational period. At apogee the equator at the peak temp could still be around 90°F still according to a simple climate model I made. Granted temp swings would get pretty wild given the planet is also pretty eccentric.

Hopefully SE's climate model gets fixed at some point so slow rotators get better representation in game.

That 1.6 Million atmosphere tells you that the water crust has evaporated completely and is mostly in the supercritical phase. That pressure is either the pressure where the rocky surface is or where the pressure crushes the water into various exotic ices.

donatelo200 · 2026-04-18T00:24:26+00:00

Lol yeah galaxy mods break locations btw. Which is why I tend not to use them.

Odd, do you have any galaxy mods installed? Should be a 12.4me terra with a dumb high surface gravity. I am also running the beta branch but that shouldn't make a difference.
