Overview

Planets are natural Space Objects strewn throughout the galactic map. Each planet is assigned an ID and a name to differentiate itself from other planets in the galaxy. Each planet is different in its minerals and fuel that may be mined, and the densities thereof.

You grow your empire by colonizing and developing these planets. As you expand, you will eventually encounter neighboring empires.

Each planet has a climate in the range from 0-100 degrees that is used to determine the conditions of the planet.
