    We only have a small taste of what Planetary Annihilation is going to be like.

    This is simply going to be ridiculously epic.

    Nuetrino better get those repeating build queues into the game. :rolleyes: Also, is there a way to que 100 units at a time instead of 5?

    Howleh crud....

    And I suppose THAT is probably what is going to need a slider for "biome scale". To make the map generate either small patchy bits of water all over the place (that), or generate larger consistent biomes and oceans.

    The above mod that isn't mine although I didn't think it existed at first and tried making my own. I have mine set for 10. Just because it cuts clicking in half for it to be 10 instead of 5, yet it doesn't dedicate you to build 100 if you just want 10-20 instead.

    Nice one, can you share some numbers on RAM/VRAM usage?

    Unfortunately I cannot. Someone posted that in The Realm chat. So I don't know what the specs are since someone else took it.

    I saw this and I remebered the 81x81 maps...
    No one played this, but I think that a 40players mega-game will be cool

    It's funny, because tatsu just posted in another thread about planet size, and this thread is like the "speak of the devil" phenomenon.

    This has got to have the surface areas of 18 size-2 planets on it alone.

    don´t want to backseatdrive or something ... but how bout a 300 radius to it for comparison?? assuming your comp can handle the weight ^^

    i don´t disagree that this is some efin huge planet to play own ... ... ... but i wouldn´t call it mega ..
    ( i can hear you guys saying already:" WHAAAAAT??? ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND???"
    to me mega would be having like .. 5 of those .. +1 or 2 moons to each + 10 to 20 nonstarting planetoids (asteroids ... obviously many of those , 1 or 2 metal planets, a few gasgiants) ...
    and players start in teams of 2 to 4 on each main planet ... it will be long, it will be hard (maybe), it will be across the whole system but it will be epic ... assuming any comp can handle that ...

    That would even work for 40 players.
    Btw: Is 40 players the limit, or is there a chance that there'll be even more players playing in the same game?

    I know! I'm bummed to – that was a really good idea.

    In the meantime, just try and look at the Plateaus. Use those for size comparison.

    When I'm done playing BF4 I'll mock up a comparison using the plateaus for reference. Won't be exact, but will be close.

    And that image is just a 2,000 size planet – not a 4,000+ planet!

    OMG size 3500 is stupidly huge o_O
    I can get it to start loading but before it finishes creating the planet where it does the texturing my PA freezes
    (i only have 4g ram and 1gb of it's shared with my Intel HD 4000 iGPU)

    I will keep trying until i find one over 2000 in size that generates my end for a comparison..
    (The 3500 planet i made before PA crashed was easy 2x the size of the 2000 size planet :eek::eek::eek::eek: It's bigger than the sun !!!!)

    You can't set higher radius with slider, but you can input totally any number into field.
