Planet Yuma and it's population

[Emperor Tekagi]

I haz made an edit to explain further. But yes, 11 mill and done.

Me watching the daily drama turn into yet another Disco-doomsday discussion:

I'd say it should be zero on a planet with a gravity of 14,1 m/s^2. I sure as hell couldn't live with weighting over 1 ton instead of my current 85 kg.

Based on my calculations, you would be ~110 kg on Yuma.

Yeah, my bad, I miscalculated by a decimal place. Still I'd consider that a bit too much for my skeleton and muscles.

Regardless of what you think about CR, there are obvious problems with the timeline of this planet and its population:

- 817, DSE surveys the planet and its existence is publicized
- After the DSE survey ship is lost, CR enters the system
- Current day: Population 110 million

Going from "no settlements exist" to "population of 110 million" within the span of ten years is pretty ridiculous, refugees or not.
Now, despite being a strong believer in not giving specific numbers in the context of fleets and economies, I do think it's necessary and doable to include explicit population numbers on planets. However, populations on non-house planets are always going to attract a lot of scrutiny. Faction control over a planetary population is going to be controversial, even if it's a few hundred k.
This is a particularly extreme case, there wasn't even a retcon applied to justify the insane population number, it was just implemented as part of a wider trend of CR receiving the single most ridiculous devpush of any nonvanilla faction ever, far beyond even the Coalition or Core.

It would be hard to treat this as canonical inrp, while trying to maintain some semblance of adherence to realistic development.

All that happened in the system with no trade lane or even jumpgate connection. In the system where the Outcast fleet was stationed for a couple of years, the system which was bordering a nomad system, system that has all sorts of Liberty unlawfuls tend to operate and Gaians attacking Yuma as they hardly opposed colonization by CR back in the day.

So among things that you've mentioned, other conditions have been outstanding.

Not that I want to defend the trainwreck that's CR, but if 110 millions of people on Yuma in ten years don't make sense, then between 290 and 600 millions (infocard says two different things) on Gaia in a few months makes even less sense.

Because the way the population has been done in the Discovery mod is so ridiculous and inconsistent.

Fixed it for you.

Basilica was moved to Coronado right after this event in 2018 https://discoverygc.com/forums/showthrea...tid=165595

And moved out with the most recent patch. I dont know why you are lying about it being there for months, shooter. Being in hard denial against all the facts is meh.

Also wrong account, please change to Shiki
