Just out of curiousity, what would you say is the hardest of hard sci-fi? Real life But real life isn't "fiction"

Real life But real life isn't "fiction" Reality is stranger than fiction

But real life isn't "fiction" Reality is stranger than fiction Even stranger than fan fiction?

Reality is stranger than fiction Even stranger than fan fiction? No. That is an exception.

And Brony fan fiction defies all laws of relativity, reality and humanity.
On that, we can all agree.

Real life But real life isn't "fiction" It is, and not a very good one at that. Plot twists are either sadly predictable or make no sense at all, characters are poorly written, pacing is terrible and it is clearly written to make a (very unsubtle) point. Even worse, it is clearly written by committee and no-one there even seem to agree on what point they are making in the first place. Storylines are randomly thrown together and then anticlimactically dropped. And people, even those that are presented as smart, are sometimes collectively so stupid it is a complete immersion-breaker. And tech makes no sense. I mean come on, you got nuclear power for 70 years and you're not even using it for rocket propulsion? And fusion that is always "twenty years away". Sure, that's how technological development works. And quantum computers DO NOT WORK THAT WAY DAMMIT!

Not to mention: nuclear power, safest, cleanest, most environmentally friendly, least harmful impact on nature or humanity of ANY power generation technology ever, but then whole nations known for their scientific ethos and rationality boycott the stuff based on anecdotes, hyperbole and ignorance.

The Iota Piscium system is now updated. The updates are far and few apart not because people are patiently waiting, but because nobody cares lolAdding 2 computronium nodes and Hera's satellites. Fixed the planets' masses.

How do you install this? I'm not sure where to put the textures.

Data for the planets are put inside the existing CelestialBodies.txt, textures go to Textures folder.

So you are saying that it will work if I put the "CDE - OA Celestials Texture Pack 1" folder into the CDE/Mod/Textures folder?

When you get in Children of a Dead Earth (the stock files folder)'s Textures folder, you'll see all the textures in there, and no folder inside. You probably know what to do by now.
