Using the Settings File

The settings file for REX is located in RealExoplanets/Settings.cfg. It can be used to do the following: 1) Set custom scale factors 2) Enable or disable systems to your desire 3) Enable or disable stock-alike names

• Explanation of each setting:
  • "stellarDistanceScale:NEEDS[RealSolarSystem]" - sets the scale factor for stellar distances when using RSS. A value of 10 would mean stars are 10 times further away than in real life.
  • "stellarDistanceScale:NEEDS[!RealSolarSystem]" - sets the scale factor for stellar distances when RSS is NOT installed.
  • "sizeScale" - scale factor for all distances, including planetary radii, when RSS is NOT installed.
  • "massScale" - scale factor for all masses when RSS is NOT installed.
  • "atmoScale" - scale factor for atmosphere heights when RSS is NOT installed.
  • "rotScale" - scale factor for rotational periods when RSS is NOT installed.
  • "[SystemName]" - enables or disables the respective stellar system.
  • "stockNames" - enables or disables stock-alike names when RSS is NOT installed.
