could this be added to the planet file itself directly from the document?

Could what be added to the planet file directly from which document?

Just a repeat of my post on the Megamek forum to avoid doubling up:

If no one has claimed it yet I will start with the original FASA House Liao Sourcebook (1624), specifically Sian Commonality planets of:
Sian (submitted)
Barras (submitted)
Betelgeuse (submitted)
Buenos Aires (submitted)
Drozan (submitted)
Grand Base (submitted)
Menke (submitted)
Principia (submitted)
Sigma Mare (submitted)
Turin (submitted)
Victoria (submitted)
Ward (submitted)

I will then work my way down the list of Commonalities.

the updated doc you have. Could it be added to the planetary file on MHQ or MM?

Jayof9s · « **Reply #33 on:** 26 February 2012, 21:06:19 »

Spreadsheet updated again. I added Luthien, Tharkad, Atreus, Terra and Strana Mechty tonight.

I'm adding the planets to planet.xml in the SVN, so anything I receive or add myself will be available in the next release.

Thanks Jay for the info.

Jayof9s · « **Reply #35 on:** 28 February 2012, 09:31:27 »

Once again, planetary data submissions are appreciated.

Project Update: I've received a few more planets (see the spreadsheet linked in the first post) and I spent quite a bit of time yesterday updating when planets were captured during the Clan Invasion.

Taharqa had already started on this with dates from the Invading Clans source book (Ghost Bear, Smoke Jaguar and Nova Cats) and I expanded with info from the Wolf and Jade Falcon source books. When the next update is out you should be able to start a campaign in late 3049 and watch the Clan Invasion Corridors appear over the course of 3049 through early 3052 before they were stopped at Tukayyid. You will also be able to see planets that are in conflict (when it lasted more than a day) as you advance through those years.

I plan to continue updating faction change dates in a similar fashion so that planets will turn over when they're captured (or as close as I can get since they don't always release specific dates).

My next round of faction change updates will be coming from the 2x NIAS 4th Succession War Atlases.

I'm using the latest svn and trying to enter a contested world. I saw in the change notes that thtis should now be possible. However, when I enter two factions in the same faction change I receive an NPE. I've tried / , and- as separators. Could you give me the proper way to do this?

Thanks

Sorry I didn't respond sooner, I missed the post. The proper way to do multiple factions is:

<faction>DC,FC</faction>

The entire entry for a conflict would go something like this:

<factionChange>
<date>3039-08-05</date>
<faction>FS, DC</faction>
</factionChange>

You would then make a similar entry with just the remaining faction and the date that the conflict ended after the planet returns to a single faction's control:

<factionChange>
<date>3039-08-13</date>
<faction>FS</faction>
</factionChange>

You should not get an NPE while loading MHQ but I have noticed that from time to time multiple factions will result in an NPE for just the Interstellar Map tab during certain dates (but MHQ will continue to run). The strangest part is that it sometimes works fine and sometimes doesn't. From the NPE message it has something to do with drawing the map, hopefully it can be fixed before the next release.

Edit: for further clarity (since I had it wrong in my example): do not leave spaces between the multiple factions: i.e. DC,FC not DC, FC - it causes issues with the map working properly.

Jayof9s · « **Reply #37 on:** 29 February 2012, 23:57:56 »

Update: 40+ new planets, some new factions, and all the Clan Invasion dates are now committed to the SVN. I also have data for at least 20 more planets to proofread/edit and they will likely be posted tomorrow.

A big thanks to the contributors so far!

We still need lots of help though, 60 planets only puts us at barely over 2% of the planets on that map. If you've got some old source books sitting around, spend sometime and help populate that map!

Just a related question: are recharge stations being included in planetary data? and will they influence travel times in MekHQ? I ask because currently MekHQ does not take in account the recharge stations available in major systems and the travel times are bigger than they should be...

Warpimp · « **Reply #41 on:** 05 March 2012, 08:52:15 »

That occurred to me as well last time. I was going to enter data from the Chaos March book, but there is little data besides jump, transit and recharge data.

Jayof9s · « **Reply #42 on:** 05 March 2012, 10:31:14 »

Thanks for the submissions ocherstone!

I've got a bit of catching up to do after a busy weekend but once I get it all entered the project will be well over 100 planets (most of which are in the SVN now) + some faction change dates updated (entire clan invasion) and the addition of empty systems linking the home worlds and soon the near periphery worlds that couldn't previously be reached.

I'm not sure where the PDFs disappeared to but some of the data we're looking for is likely in those books. I doubt they have all of it though (however partial submissions are better than nothing). Also, don't forget to check the spreadsheet linked to on the first post as there are several planets in-progress - either submitted and waiting for me to proof/edit and enter into the SVN or being worked on by someone. Just so we're not duplicating work.

The times are currently incorrect because there is no data entered for the planets currently in MHQ released. The only individual data they have are their names and their x-y coordinates for drawing them on the maps. Everything else is just a basic filler template that gives all the planets the same info. The entire point of this project is to correct that problem.

To actually answer your question; yes MHQ can handle recharge stations and will take them into account when they're added. If you look at the first post there are tags for Zenith and Nadir Recharge stations as well as star types (luminosity, sub type, and spectral class) and system position, MHQ will make use of that data when it is actually entered to calculate the correct recharge times and transit times (or very close, sometimes the published data doesn't 100% line up with the published calculations but it usually does or is extremely close).

If you can build the current SVN, go ahead and check it out. While 100 or so planets with data is a very small percentage of nearly 3,000 planets, there are enough in there to test out the correct recharge / transit times.

I managed to download free pdf copies of the original FASA House sourcebooks a couple of years ago from the official CBT website (they were sans illustrations). However, I have not been able to find them either in the last couple of months (now that I have discovered Megamek and in has rekindle my interest in all things BT). I believe that Catalyst has removed these free pdfs because they are now selling pdfs of some of the original FASA House sourcebooks (I assume they are working on the remaining ones as well).

The original FASA House sourcebooks have information on a small number of the 3,000 planets in the Inner Sphere and the information is not complete, in the new Field Manuals and updated Catalyst House sourcebooks I believe that they include the economic data (A-A-A-A-A) and climate data which did not appear in the original FASA House sourcebooks. Could someone else please confirm this as I do not own any of the new Field Manuals and updated Catalyst House sourcebooks yet?

Thanks for the submissions. We don't actually have the capability for HPG changes at this time, I'll talk to Taharqa about how difficult it would be to include a way for more data changes since a lot more than factions tend to change on planets. And I know there had been interest in having a tainted climate option added - either from massive pollution on some planets or from nuclear fallout.

Edit: We're going with 1-1-3040 for the change to the FedCom, so you used the correct date.

The standard dates we will use for the the FedCom, LA, and worlds that changed hands during the 3039 war and ARDC would be nice to have posted somewhere.

The 'standard' dates we'll be using are already in MekHQ. If you don't have anything more specific to include with your submission you can even just skip the faction part. A lot of the faction changes will be updated to be more accurate from source books that cover various operations/wars (Clan Invasion as an example that is already complete in the SVN and my next project will likely be the 4th Succession War based on the War Atlas books).

I got a batch of 20-30 more planets added to the SVN tonight with about 30 more waiting to be added. We're at just under 100 planets in the SVN, soon to be just under 130.

One request for anyone that submits data going forward, please send all info to my email: jayof9s at gmail.com. I realized after being busy the last few days that trying to keep track of planets submitted in PMs on 2 forums and posts on two different forums + submissions in my email is tough to keep track of if I get busy for a few days.

I don't think I missed anything but please take a look at the spreadsheet and let me know if I either have left you off the contributors list and/or if any planets you submitted didn't make it onto my list of either in progress or completed planets.

Regular bump/update: we're up to 177 planets with data in the SVN + several other additions.

A lot of planets with data do not have descriptions, if someone wants to work on these write ups that would be welcome. As always submissions are welcome, just remember to check the spreadsheet in the original post so you're not redoing work that is already done. The spreadsheet also lists any missing tags/details for a planet.

Please send all submissions to my email: jayof9s at gmail.com

Time for another bump:

We are now up to over 230 planets with data!

However, we still need submissions as there are a lot more planets left.

An additional job I could use assistance with is planetary descriptions. A lot of the planets we have data for were submitted with no description. I've been going through and adding these myself when I get the chance but usually I find more planets we don't have at all and work on those instead. So if someone is interested in going down the list of planets with data but no description (see the spreadsheet linked in the original post) and submit descriptions for them, that would be greatly appreciated. Please keep in mind that these descriptions should be re-written so we are not plagiarizing any source.

Another job that I could use assistance with is faction change dates. This is easiest to do per war/battle source book. All you need to pass along to me is the planet name, what date the battle for the planet started, how long the fight on that planet lasted, and which factions were involved. For instance I've done the Clan Invasion based on the info in the Clan Jade Falcon, Clan Wolf, and Invading Clan source books and pulled out the dates of attacks and how long planets were considered contested for every planet hit during the clan invasion. Other similar books are the 4th War Atlases, Historicals, JHS, etc.

As usual, please send all submissions to my email: jayof9s at gmail.com
