Description
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest in the Solar System.
It is a giant planet with a mass one-thousandth that of the Sun, but two and
a half times that of all the other planets in the Solar System combined. Jupiter
is a gas giant, along with Saturn, with the other two giant planets, Uranus
and Neptune, being ice giants.

Jupiter was known to astronomers of ancient times. The Romans named it after their
god Jupiter. When viewed from Earth, Jupiter can reach an apparent magnitude of −2.94,
bright enough for its reflected light to cast shadows, and making it on average
the third-brightest object in the night sky after the Moon and Venus.

Jupiter is primarily composed of hydrogen with a quarter of its mass being helium,
though helium comprises only about a tenth of the number of molecules. It may also
have a rocky core of heavier elements,but like the other giant planets, Jupiter lacks
a well-defined solid surface. Because of its rapid rotation, the planet's shape is that
of an oblate spheroid (it has a slight but noticeable bulge around the equator).

The outer atmosphere is visibly segregated into several bands at different latitudes,
resulting in turbulence and storms along their interacting boundaries. A prominent
result is the Great Red Spot, a giant storm that is known to have existed since at
least the 17th century when it was first seen by telescope. Surrounding Jupiter is
a faint planetary ring system and a powerful magnetosphere.

Jupiter has at least 67 moons, including the four large Galilean moons discovered by
Galileo Galilei in 1610. Ganymede, the largest of these, has a diameter greater than
that of the planet Mercury.

Jupiter has been explored on several occasions by robotic spacecraft,
most notably during the early Pioneer and Voyager flyby missions and later by the
Galileo orbiter. In late February 2007, Jupiter was visited by the New Horizons probe,
which used Jupiter's gravity to increase its speed and bend its trajectory en route to
Pluto. The latest probe to visit the planet is Juno, which entered into orbit around
Jupiter on July 4, 2016. Future targets for exploration in the Jupiter system include
the probable ice-covered liquid ocean of its moon Europa.

........................................................................PLEASE READ IMPORTANT...........................................................

you must put my Ghosts CloudLayer textures mod in world before it will show up in your mod folder then

open my mod 773189417 in mod folder OS/Users/your comps name/appdata/Roaming/space enginneers\mods

way it works go into you Space engineers folder

Programfiles {86}/Steam/Steamapps/common/SpacEngineers

place all textures from my Ghosts CloudLayer textures into folder

Programfiles {86}/Steam/Steamapps/common/SpacEngineers/Content/Textures/Models/Enviroment/Sky

and if you know sbc files well you can also enter name of sky in atmosphere settings under clouds

but these are for my new and upcoming planets so u dont have to go into any file it will be there as long as textures

are in S.E folder your good to go


.......................................................................................................................................................................................

due to the gravity strength this gas giant would be better at a larger size
you can acheive this by reading Doctor Octoganapus guild How to make Super sized planets

heres link http://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=637845840&searchtext=super+sized+planets

Cloud layers are jupitars storm clouds i did not create these clouds
you will also need my sky textures mod for clouds to work heres link

http://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=773189417

Works in Dev and Stable

i hope you enjoy

rate and sub if you like

UPDATED: Fixed heightmaps size also added extra cloud layers still WIP

UPDATE 2: added multiple layers to clouds to give it thicker look

Why do i spawn it but then, see nothing but my suit lights, and HUD? how do i spawn it further

could you post some pictures of the surface? even without being able to take off, its still possible with ubber strong thrusters mods maybe?

@riotgrrl_adria How do I download a mod externally?
riotgrrl_adria 7 Jul, 2022 @ 7:16am 
@caseyrolltide24

Download the mod externally and edit a file called PlanetJupiter.sbc (or PlanetJupiterHD.sbc - I don't remember off the top of my hat) with your favorite editor software, like Notepad, Notepad ++, Atom, etc.

In there, you will find the value <gravity>xx</gravity>

Change whatever the xx value is to whatever you want.
Base value of 1 is earths gravity of 9.8 m/s

@soulbladex
Hmm. Ill have to look into that
caseyrolltide24 6 Jul, 2022 @ 9:43pm 
Do you know of any way I can lower the gravity? I like this mod but the distance you have to travel to actually escape its gravity field is a bit ridiculous for SE's scale, imo. Not to say that this is a bad mod.

I have an issue where asteroid and all planet dirt textures are corrupted (ranging from flat dark grey, to black, to black with white specks). This mod is likely dead, which is okay. I thought I would write this just in case.

This is what I've been working on.

I don't much have time to work on it with any regularity. If you want to contribute, send me a message through github.

Please do NOT create a new fork of the project.

@ninjawizard
the planet does indeed have a surface on it. In this version, the gravity it so bloody high that you won't be able to take off from it.
