[Space] Changes to the Wordbuilding Sequance

[scc]

With a pre-designed world 21 and 22 get complicated, or at least fiddly, because you've got to fit a planet with a previously set temperature, and thus distance from the star, in there. You've got to either change every orbit between that planet and the first gas giant or change the planet's temprature.

Are you saying that the density shouldn't have been allowed to go that high?

If I've got a predesigned world I don't bother to place the first gas giant. I just let it end up where ever it ends up. And no. I'm not saying that. I'm saying it's impossible under the rules to generate a small world with that density at that temperature which is that large. You accidentally generated a standard sized moon by looking at the wrong column.

No, the values are good, but it looks like as density goes down and/or gravity goes up there's a chance that it will change size.

I'm pretty sure they aren't.

287.72/.7 equals 411.03. Square root of that is 20.27. Times 0.03, the maximum value for a small world and you get 0.61 diameter. It is impossible to get more.

Found the problem, I had the formula entered into Clac wrong, and as basically treating diameter as gravity and vice versa, no problems until working no MWWR
