Code
Planet "HATS-6" <-----Should be given a letter so that its name differs from parrent star, else SE console brings an error message
{
ParentBody "HATS-6"
Mass 3.190000e-01
Radius 6.977118e+04
DiscDate "2014"
Updated "11/08/2014"
Orbit
{
Epoch 2452899.6
Period 9.103950e-03
SemiMajorAxis 3.623000e-02
Inclination 8.821000e+01
}
}
This is located in file ''newexoplanets.sc''
I named it ''HATS-6 a''
Just for clarification:
''ExoplanetStar1.sc'' goes into YourSEfolder\Catalogs\Stars (or inside yourSEfoldr\Catalogs\CatalogSE.PAK\Stars
''ExoplanetStar2.sc'' and ''newexoplanets.sc'' goes into YourSEfolder\Catalogs\planets\ or \CatalogsSE.pak\planets
and corresponding entries in universe.cfg located un config folder

Gracias de nuevo!!! 
Only one thing, The recently discovered Kepler 438b and Kepler 442b appear like scorched lava deserts but in reality they are probably the most earth-like planets we have encountered.
Buen trabajo!
Ya han salido 9 planetas nuevos esta semana jajajaja no paramos de descubrir verdad?

| Quote pzampella, you should probably include some installation instructions so that users who aren't familiar with the catalog system can install it.
'Readme' file added!
n0b0dy, about HATS-6, it appears without the 'b' on http://exoplanet.eu/ for some reason, but I will fix it.
Also, I changed the addOn a little bit, so we can just put it in the catalog folder and edit the universe script.
FastFourierTransform, De nada y si, esos los agregaré para la próxima versión.
Also, I think they appear as warm deserts because the star data in the catalog is unaccurate. However, if that data is fixed by the next update, it could appear as a terra!Added (02.02.2015, 23:38)
---------------------------------------------
I just did a little update so we I can add the Kepler-444 system.

| I am working on a full update of SE catalog, using data form exoplanet.eu and NASA exoplanet archive. Both indeed have many errors in planets and stars names (NASA archive a bit better).

| SpaceEngineer, Nice! I've been using only the exoplanet.eu catalog because of the discrepancies with NASA's. However, each error I find it's been fixed.
I hope you can use the script to help you to update SE's catalog.

| NASA catalog is more accurate. I made a software which combines both catalogs (tries to fill the missing data in one catalog with the data from another, takes missing planets from both, etc). But the huge amount of work is needed to fix errors like different/incomplete planet or star name, missing star coordinates/magnitude data, etc. And in the end, some multiple stars are already hand-made by me for previous versions of SE, and I must accurately copy them into the new catalog.

| So,
I'm a total newb with mods here. I'd love to have the new exoplanets. I've read through the stickies and I've tried several different ways of putting these files in the pak, putting them in a unique pak, or just putting them in an unpacked archive and I still can't seem to get any of these new planets to appear.
I hate to do this because I can usually find things out on my own, but is there any chance someone can explain what I'm doing wrong, what I need to do right, or just where I need to look to find the answer?
Thanks a bunch.

Did you added them in the universe.cfg?

| Small problem here, but managed to install them due to the explanation 
You have mentioned 'ExoplanetStar1.sc'', ''ExoplanetStar2.sc'' and ''newexoplanets.sc ?
I am confused. I do have newexoplanets.sc, ExoplanetStar.sc and ExoplanetBarycenter.sc here, from the archive.
Also the barycenter file gives ERRORs at type and spectrum, at the position of for example "Kepler-443 Barycenter" there is no object.
Some suggestions ?

| DeeKay, Yeah, sorry! I forgot to add the 'Readme' file. I changed the script's names to make it more intuitive.
About Kepler-443 b, it is in the script and can see th object.
In any case, I want to fix some errors this week, so if you still have issues, PM me so you can help me!

| Well, no - problem still unsolved 
I downloaded this http://en.spaceengine.org/_fr/23/NewExoplanets3..zip, put the files to the correct directories and added them to universe.cfg.
Result: Errors as described. And i don't have ExoplanetStar1.sc and ExoplanetStar2.sc and no readme

| Sorry DeeKay, I've been a little busy.
I just added the ReadMe file again (I forgot to add it on version 3.1).
The problem was that I changed the name of the files, but they are the same! I hope this will help you

| Mod looks great, dowloaded without a hitch.
However--and this is a nooby question--i cant seem to search for any 3-letter Kepler planet, like Kepler-438b. Space Engine only recognized two letters. Is it something in the nomenclature?
