Cosmic Social Distancing

This mod adjusts the positions of planets to avoid any being closer than 3000km. Pairs of planets are incrementally pushed them apart until all are separated by at least this distance.

  • This also applies to other space locations.
  • Planets of larger size than the default (i.e. magnitude >= 1) are given extra room, and conversely for smaller planets.
  • The base minimum distance is configurable in settings.
    • This parameter is a starmap measurement ‘on the screen’. When we say the default is 3000km we’re using a measurement scale implied by the length of the connections from Nauvis in vanilla Space Age.
  • Locations registered as the parent (or grandparent, ...) of another location in PlanetsLib are treated as exceptions; two such locations will not repel each other.
  • Locations with hidden=true or the PlanetsLib field sprite_only=true are also excluded.
