Its probably the planets radius, you have it set to 40km

#

okay of course

elfin swan Its probably the planets radius, you have it set to 40km

40.0 is not 40km?

#

oh I am sorry... I didn't know this.

#

is it not?

vast horizon Jun 18, 2024, 12:30 PM

#

Uhhh

#

wait, its radius is 40.5

elfin swan Jun 18, 2024, 12:33 PM

#

just change it to something like 15000 and see if it fixes it

vast horizon Jun 18, 2024, 12:33 PM

#

I was gonna make a gas giant the size of Jupiter

#

well for future reference, "Radius" is measured in km, and "Mass" is measured in Earth masses

#

Jupiter is 318 Earth masses, and has a radius of 71,500 km. You can work off of those values.

#

so 71500.0?

elfin swan Jun 18, 2024, 12:40 PM

#

sure
