The systems used most (Standard 1-12 AS I or II) don't have ice planets specified.

Didn't you see the XLS?
Planets called in every system type are multiplied by the number of times that system appears in the quadrant, that gives every system the relative importance is has. |

Re: Vacuum breathers get gypped in FQM?
Yes, I did. But, there should still not be many more Rock planets in there.

Re: Vacuum breathers get gypped in FQM?
The difference lies in the balance of planet sizes:
In stock all sizes have the same multipliers except huge that has nearly twice, so balance of planet sizes depends mostly of sector types.
By forcing so many tiny, small, and medium planets and relatively less huge ones FQM alters that "balance".
Forced huge-gas planets compensate this for gas dwellers (slightly overcompensate actually), but non-gas huge planets become relatively rare and that is the only size in which ice is as common as rock and where ice dwellers found most of their facility slots.

Re: Vacuum breathers get gypped in FQM?
I suppose that makes some sense. Care to do an analysis of FQM Deluxe? That one I know is going to be rahter unbalanced, but I have no idea how unbalanced.  |

Re: Vacuum breathers get gypped in FQM?
I dont have definitive results yet, there's some minor mistake I'm trying to find.
But so far I can tell you this:
*Rock-ox is not as good as you thought, other atmospheres specially Carbon Dioxide and Methane get even more planets
*The best combination seems to be Gas-Hydrogen, near twice as good thant the worst Ice-Carbon Dioxide.

Re: Vacuum breathers get gypped in FQM?
Well... that was just a guess, as I hadn't looked at the amounts of planet pics in the image mod too closely.  |

Here you have the results:
| Hydrogen-Gas Giant | 9.73% | | Methane-Gas Giant | 8.76% | | C Dioxide-Gas Giant | 8.73% | | C Dioxide-Rock | 8.41% | | Methane-Rock | 8.28% | | Oxygen-Rock | 7.71% | | Hydrogen-Rock | 7.70% | | Oxygen-Gas Giant | 7.60% | | None-Rock | 6.99% | | Oxygen-Ice | 5.64% | | Hydrogen-Ice | 5.43% | | None-Ice | 5.34% | | Methane-Ice | 4.89% | | C Dioxide-Ice | 4.79% | | None-Gas Giant | 0.00% |
