DaftNESIV Excursion I: Planet Formation Exercise

PHASE 1

update1s.png


Planetoids Spryllino and Vert have had a very violent collision. A small fused core has survived, material has been thrown to nearby planets (50% control to each player).

The same has happened with Bill3000 and Domination3000, with the surviving core called DB3k for short (50% control to each player). Masses of rocky chunks have been sent flying out of the inner system.

Planetoids Daftpanzer and Farow seem likely to have a similar collision in the next few cycles, unless something changes.

The icy ball called Merciary has grown fast by gobbling up lots of icy material from just outside the frost line, and even has a thin atmosphere of nitrogen and helium. Merciary was big enough to capture the eccentric planetoid of Omega as a moon when it made a close approach. Its neighbour, Cull, is only slightly smaller.

The outer system has lots and lots of room for manoeuvre. However collisions do seem likely, as the eccentric super-comet Otsuj disturbs the orbits of nearby objects. This is also causing many small comets to fall towards the inner planets.

At this point, the heaviest object overall is the hot and highly metallic planetoid called Hunter.

NOTES: New players can still join at this point, and you are allowed to specify fractions in the starting distance (EG 1.66 AU) so you don't start ontop of each other.

Thanks very much!

I won't join this, but I'll def. lurk. Good idea.

Will this hurt Pre-DaftNES IV in any way?

@lord_joakim I diverted about 15 minutes to this update. It is a distraction, I apologise, but I felt inspired. I'll get back to the IV update now...
 
Planetoid merciary,

Orders: Accrete
 
DB3K
Orders: Migrate: Towards the sun
 
What don't you want to play with me?
 
Order: Collide with asteroid DB3K.

Vert, I suggest you tell it to accrete, and then we'll hit it more slowly and then we won't lose quite so much of each asteroid into space.
 
Asteroid Heraclius:
Distance: 9 AU
Orders: Accrete
 
Spryllino-Vert
Order: Accreate to destroy DB3K when we collide. :mwaha:
 
Asteroid Advantage

Distance: same AU as bestrfcplayer
Orders: accrete in the direction of bestrfcplayer to try an' gobble 'im up.
