just wondering, is Auraxis like the same as Earth eg:

Size
Land/Water %age
Terain (land)
Distance from sun
Day length
Atmosphere
Gravity
Seasons (Planet tilt)
Year length (if known)
Moons.

and any other stuff that relate to the Earth like animals or tempreture etc. I wanted to know this cos from the pics ive seen, the planet does like almost exactly like Earth, so can u tell me wich of the things listed are the same in Earth and Auraxis?

I think the physics side of it would be the same i.e. temp, weather, gravity etc. I imagine it was hard enough to code physics that everyone is used to, let alone create your own planet physics and actually get them to work :eek:

As for animals, altough a fun distraction, it would probably use bandwidth that could be best spent somewhere else. Hopefully someone in beta *looking at Hamma and co.* can shed a little light on this.

hmmm... the story is that they found a planet pretty similar to earth, and therefor colonized it...

Guess it is like earth then ;)

Size- ???
Land/Water %age- Lots of water compared to earth.
Terain (land)- Volcanic, arctic, desert, swamp, forest, etc.
Distance from sun- ???
Day length- ???
Atmosphere- similar to earths, or we couldn't colonize it.
Gravity- similar to earth's, I think.
Seasons (Planet tilt)- ???
Year length (if known)- ???
Moons.- I believe 2.

If I recall, Araxus is a rogue planet. It was drifting around and got caught in the gravity well between two stars millions of years ago, hense the wormhole between the stars and the twilight-like evenings.

Seasons: None (some continents sort-of represent different seasons, though)
Distance from Sun: Which one?
Year length: Don't think there is one. Use Earth Standard.
