Planet names
|



A collection of names for planets.. Very usefull when you're about to edit the
starmap for a custom game and you don't want to use the original names....
Maybe you as host want to make your game more difficult for expert players -
those players who know by heart that planet #278 is Oakhurst... Or because you
are very tired of some of those 'funny' names like Baseball and
Eurodisney World. Or you're about to create a more realistic universe
and you want to include some more names of existing planets.
Just save this page as plain text and delete the headers. Use the plain text
file as input for the PlanetNM.exe tool I wrote to create a (randomised)
Planet.nm and Planetxy.dat file for you.
Timo


As you look at Tim's original list of 500
planet names (i.e. the PLANET.NM file), you can observe serveral groups of
names originating from different sources. I've sorted the list into these
groups so you can pick the groups you want to use in your game.

Just a small list. If you've got some bright ideas for new names, drop me a line and I'll gladly add
them.
The names are kindof logically sorted in a way only conceivable by me (I
think). If you get the logic: well done, if not: bad luck. :-)
