I find this one interesting in the fact that it is a moon of a Desert planet as shown in the pic, the Skin for the Desert planet looks interesting itself.

So apparently this galaxy has the biggest amount of ocean planets, I've ever seen, but I've managed to find this planet with lots of islands, couldn't find anything better, but I like this planet.

Yeah, I wonder why you can't ever find a planet that looks like Earth. There should be planets with lots of oceans and a few large continents.

Look at the one I posted. cool

edit: Donatelo's planet has a similar landmass fraction as well. They're not common, but they do exist. It seems though the the most common terras fall on either extreme; either very little water or very little land.

These have been excellent submissions so far, and I hope there will be a few more! It's going to be very difficult to choose just one planet. biggrin

I'd love to throw my automatic mapper at this challenge, but I've been away the past week and just got home, so I only had a few minutes. This is what I found: planet RS 5434-49-8-2400624-659 A6

Orbit shot:


Surface shot:


I think there are better landscape shots for this planet, but while exploring I got:

so the above picture is the view that I happened to have when it crashed. I don't have time to revisit today.

Alright, time's up! The submission period has ended and the voting period has begun. Everyone on the forum is encouraged to vote! Remember a few points:

  • You may vote for up to three submissions*
  • Participants may not vote for themselves
  • When voting, simply make a post with the usernames of the persons you're voting for, or something similar which makes it clear that you're voting and who you're voting for
  • If you try to change your vote (i.e. edit your voting post) after the end of the voting period, your vote will be discarded
  • Voting ends in exactly three days. Results will be announced as soon as possible after voting is over.

    Happy voting!

    *I changed this rule just now, thought it might make voting easier for some of you :)

    Watsisname, on neither my vanilla nor custom installs does your world have life, so something weird must be going on there.
