| Will those alternative classification sets be user selectable or will there be just one set chosen for the release and they were presented here for critique?

| 0.972 will have old planet classification (ie not changed).

| I have found a world that got me thinking about space engines planet definitions. There are clear definitions for terrestrial and gas giant world but no classification for the grey area. I submit to Space Engineer that you consider this for patching, I found a world that I think should be a gas Sub-Giant. It has 600atm at the surface but the thing is it's an oceanic so the pressure at the bottom of the ocean as at gas giant levels.
What I'm basically asking for here is a "what if" when the planet is generated like ESI. If it matches certain criteria then it becomes a Sub-Giant.
Images and location of the planet:
RS 0-7-1760765-842-63-6-114409-3748 A8

| NASA Discovered a new type of planet called a gas dwarf. Look it up.

| I think your classification is great. Don't change it. Maybe only add some data:
Atmosphere composition? (%s of top 3 gasses? e.g. water, oxygen, ammonia, iron, methane, CO2, etc etc.)
Surface composition? (% rock, % metal, % heavy metal, % water/ice)
Calculate colour of surface and atmosphere from data.

| Quote yaqdark (  ) Surface composition?
And maybe, if you change colors according to surface composition, then maybe generate how much Iron there is, so we might find a few planets like Mars?
Living among the stars, I find my way. I grow in strength through knowledge of the space I occupy, until I become the ruler of my own interstellar empire of sorts. Though The world was made for the day, I was made for the night, and thus, the universe itself is within my destiny.

I have actually found a lot of mars-like planets.

| Is this all the planet classifications or are there more that haven't been added yet?

If you want a list of most classes...check out my thread xD

| We need Carbon planets and Cthonian planets. Gas dwarfs and rouges are also needed.

They will fit into SE classification.
Carbon - desert or titan.
Cthonian - gas giant, ice giant, oceania or desert, depending on evaporation progress.
Gas dwarf - lightweight ice giant or heavy desert with thick atmosphere.
Rouge planet - not need a separate class. Classification in SE is based on mass and temperature, so it could be any "frozen" class.

| What about Y9 dwarfs what would they look like? Frozen terras? Terras with high pressure and a certain compound in water that would prevent water from freezing.

Like temperate gas giant.
Quote steeljaw354 ( ) Frozen terras?
Like ice world or Mars-like world, depending on what is prevail on surface: show or dust.
Quote steeljaw354 ( ) Terras with high pressure and a certain compound in water that would prevent water from freezing.
Like regular terra, but with denser atmosphere.

| I had the idea if at the time that there will be technoniques plates (continental drift) and erupting volcanoes as if it could not be added as if the planet is active or "dead" (I implies that the planet has over erupting volcano to technoniques plates).
Then but I think it was suggested, could be added if the natural or artificial term.
Example with Earth :
Planet natural active Earth
