>>43997059I figured that traveling between planets that close to each other would be easy but it’s nice to see some concrete numbers backing that up! If we exclude traveling from f (Armilla) to e (Despina) or g (Euphemia) and vice versa then it becomes even more obvious! It also goes well with my idea of making each world specialized in something and actually helps with me a bit. Currently I intend b (Benerice) to be the main source of metal and heavy construction since it’s rich in both minerals and energy (and not having an atmosphere makes delivering them to orbit much easier) while Armilla might be a resort world mixed with exotic aquaculture export since it’s less connected than the other planets despite being sandwiched between Despina and Euphemia. Euphemia’s close enough that its thick atmosphere might be a decent source of helium-3 during its early history but the gas giant further away (which has to exist to stop Euphemia from bulldozing the inner planets during migration) might prove a better source once the infrastructure’s in place to handle bulk delivery. Now it’s a major trading hub since the environment’s less lethal and has a decent selection of basic molecules for resupply (how does FTL work in this setting?)
I haven’t decided on the role of c and d although d will probably be a hot desert planet since it’s as hot as Earth before factoring in greenhouse gas. The other one’s practically boiling so I don’t know what kinda world would be interesting to be there
