I was wondering, whats the most accurate map of the Solar System out there, as far as SEIV is concerned.

Maybe we should get together and make a map of the Solar System in SEIV? It would be a one-system map, to be used as a template for any Map-Makers who would want it.

Of course, this raises some problems.

Should earth be a CO2, or an O2 planet(Technically its mostly CO2, but we use the O2, at least I think its mostly CO2).

Should there be 8, 9, or 12 planets?

How many moons should be included? Would Phobos and Deimos be included, or would they be considered asteroids?

I would also suggest we leave the Warp-Points out. That would be for the Users to add themselves.
Umm, Earth has about 70% Nitrogen, 23% Oxygen, and only a small % Carbon Dioxide - but since N is not a big factor for advanced life on the planet, I'd say go with O2.

I'd go with 9 planets and only major moons. That means ours, the 5 big moons around Jupiter, and a couple around Saturn (Titan and Mimas come to mind), Triton for Neptune, perhaps Miranda for Uranus, and Cheron for Pluto.
