Title: Race Creation
Post by: TMaekler on March 13, 2020, 05:42:59 PM
VB6 Aurora V7.1: I created a new race on a planet with 1.35G and 38% Oxygen with a total of 2 ATM. But if I place a colony of that race on that planet, it remains colony cost 2. So some parameter is off. I just can't figure out, which. Is there any way to see why there is colony cost 2? If I look at the stats of the race everything seems to fix and there are no poisonous gases on that planet... .

Oxygen over 0.3 atm is a Dangerous Gas.

How can I create a race then, which uses different breathable atmosphere? Or can handle higher oxygen levels?

Use SM to edit the body's gasses and reduce the oxygen content until the 'Dangerous Gas' notification disappears.

If you want Methane breathers:

Generate systems until you get a nice looking one.
Create a random race/faction on the future homeworld.
Use SM mode to edit the atmosphere (now that you have colony on the planet) so that it has 20% Methane atmosphere.
Use SM mode to delete the race completely.
Create a new race that is going to be your player race on that homeworld.
You now have a Methane breathing race.
