Giant asteroid
« on: July 13, 2019, 11:05:05 PM »
I just found an asteroid with acceptable gravity.  I've never seen one before. ;D

In case anyone is interested:
3-B Asteroid #10  Colony Cost 1.8  Temp 53.2  Gravity 0.16  Atmosphere None  Diameter 1800  Mass 0.0031  Density 1.10  Magnetic field 0.004

With that density and magnetic field, I guess it's a massive iron-nickel asteroid, instead of rock and ice.

Also, you couldn't mine it in C# due to the changes with Asteroid Miners becoming Orbital Miners as the diameter is more than 500 km.
