Planet size contest ;)

Re: Planet size comparison

that is rather impossible. For a amount of mass in the universe to become a star it needs a critical mass to "ignite". This would mean, before a planet is bigger than a star, it would become a star itself. Systems with two suns orbiting each other are known though.

Brown stars are the bodies in between. They just have not enough mass to become a real star, but have too much mass to stay a cold planet.

that's what I tried to explain to them.

The Earth is flat!!!

The Earth is flat I tell you! heathen!


Hit 1080P

(germans you've been baddies, you don't get to see it.)

Oh my... your planet is so... big! :shock:

Call me maybe?

Re: The Earth is flat!!!

pf why would you upload it with music? Proxtube works again finally xD

that really looks too big to play on

I'd play on dat

I can't compete on radius, but I can on height range!


Height Range = 1000


Height Range = 1500

...wow. How do those play? Can units navigate on them?

Oh shiiit! Pathfind your way around that one!!

may I just say, I love it even though it may have the traits of a kindergarten art project

There was once a plane flying into the mountains. It never came back.

One says that it still bugs at a corner..but..who knows? :lol:

On the insane height range I can say only this: FTL. And no, that doesn't mean Faster Than Light but Forget The Logic.

BTW I don't see anything in laws of physics why a massive planet couldn't have a tiny brown dwarf star orbiting it. It would occur only by the planet's SOI (Sphere Of Influence) catching such a small wandering star which would have been kicked off from its system. Or should the planet be a plenimo (wandering planet without a parent star) which would get a small star into its SOI.

You people are crazy.

But I have to say, that 300+ radius planet looks awesome.

Anyone on this forum have access to a supercomputer? :lol: I'm curious as to how far we can take this.

Because you just can't have a planet with a greater mass than a brown dwarf. A planet with the mass of a brown dwarf *becomes* a brown dwarf. A tiny brown dwarf is just a gas giant.

I look forward to playing a multiplayer game on those giant worlds.

You asked for size 500, here you go:



Although the sun is getting in the way...



Yes, that's the sun being in the planet itself. :mrgreen:

nnooooooo you stealers!!

how'd you do it???

how long did it take, I left mine runing for nearly 5 hours... :cry:

ah but you have resources and height range on zero.

... "small" cpu? :lol:

I just noticed... is it overlapping the sun???

yea the sun is getting in the way says he...

scoot sun! scoot! can't you see you're bothering?
