Atmosphere types

Nope, you will not find a Gas Giant with a atmosphere of none. Unless you mod it in, of course.

And even if you mod in Gas-None planets, the game will not let you select Gas-None as your race type.

I am pretty sure that the game does not allow gas giant none combinations for planets at all.

No, you can have gas-none planets -- I have them in the Fantasy Empires mod, and they work fine.

Seems you need *a lot* of fantasy to imagine gas planets without atmosphere What else did you mod in - supply-using quantum reactors?

What happens with atmosphere converters?

Well, I changed the "planets" into Caverns, Forests, and Swamps and I changed the atmospheres to be various alignments. So a None-Gas planet translates into a Neutral Swamp...

Good question. I have no idea... what happens in the stock game when you try to convert a Gas planet to None atmosphere? Do you get a warning that it is impossible? Or does it not just work? I suspect it is hardcoded, but I'll test it out.

If you build an atmosphere converter on a gas giant to convert it to a none gas giant, nothing happens, no warning, just sits there the whole time. The standard game does include images for gas/none colonies, most people think they're pretty funny to look at.

[Kamog]

Which picture shows the gas/none colonies?

p.s. gas could be under the surface
