rhogen

This is a commandline star system generator that draws heavily on the Worldbuilding Guide found on the Atomic Rockets website at projectrho.com. It generates semi-realistic star systems and includes calculations for mass, luminosity, radius, distance, roche/hill limits, temperature and more!

The only dependency this tool has is the PyCairo library. To get started, just clone the repository and run:

$ rhogen.py -h

Goals for the future include:

  • Ability to modify the JSON and re-import it for MarkDown and image generation.
  • Generate satellites around planets.
  • Generate rings around planets.

Output Formats

The tool has three output formats; you can output the generated system in either or all of them with the -oJ, -oM and -oI options.
