It was an alright challenge. I found the first few missions to be quite enjoyable

I found the last mission a bit too grindy because visitors were turned off. I actually had to turn colonists off on the last mission when I hit about 350 population. Then it was a slow crawl to 250 metal. The 10k was a bit of a pain with no visitors but it was doable. I sold my Meds/Spares/Guns/Bioplastic and just kept buying up all the cash from the traders. tedious to be sure.

I just finished this campaign and I really enjoyed it. Well done!

@wolfdwg. Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy these.

Planet Nine is designed to work with Wind Turbines, not Solar Panels. Trying relying more on the Wind Turbines and Energy Collectors.

planet 9 was almost inpossible because of very short days. Nights actually take very long and there are sometimes blizzards inpeding light from hitting my base and I have to survive another day without power. Like every living room or work room or meteor laser needs it's own very large solar panel and very large power collector. I constantly run out of power during titan, planet nine, military base. Now I'm stuck on psyche mining.
wolfdwg 15 Jul, 2020 @ 6:12pm 
Just finished these. Tough but not impossible. Great. Thanks Nestaron
Base Invaders 23 Jun, 2020 @ 9:31am 
In planet nine I really don't want power problems because nights do take very long.

Titan is Identical to the S class storm planet. there are no blizzards except one detail- titan has more lakes. Re-enable solar panels for that challenge. Planet 9 makes sense to turn off solar panels.

The campaign is setup so you have to recycle every ship. By doing this you will have enough materials to setup a basic base.
isthebombastichivo 23 May, 2020 @ 3:22pm 
OOOOOOO I thought the ship never gave you anything, thx, this will help in future campaigns
Nestaron  [author] 18 May, 2020 @ 2:22pm 
Recycle the ship and build the cafe/canteen and a water fountain and you should be fine. You might need to build during the early part of the storm. I always build the Power Source, battery, water collector, airlock and canteen in that order. Try that.
isthebombastichivo 18 May, 2020 @ 1:58pm 
There´s just not enough time****
isthebombastichivo 18 May, 2020 @ 1:57pm 
I mean frick dude, my estrategy was this, I made everyting to pass the night, a battery, a solar panel, a water colector, a oxygen generator, and that´s it, next day when the storm passed, I made a processing room and a mine, I mined only one mineral, and tried to process it, but there´s just enough time and my colonists die from thirst or get severe thirst before they can process it and make a dining room to not starve, I DON´T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
Nestaron  [author] 15 May, 2020 @ 3:42pm 
@isthebombastichivo - Don't expand too fast, you just need to survive for the set number of days, I believe it's 18 days. It's actually not that difficult, if you don't rush to create items you don't need, or extra items. You have enough resources to create 1 of each needed item to survive at the start, you'll need to mine resources and get starch to complete the objectives.

@Ghost - Please double check to see if it has downloaded to the Challenge folder. If it has not try unsubscribing and resubscribing.
isthebombastichivo 15 May, 2020 @ 2:10pm 
DUDE I REALLY NEED A TUTORIAL FOR MARS CAMPAIGN
isthebombastichivo 15 May, 2020 @ 1:54pm 
man how tf I play mars challenge without dying?
Ghost 7 May, 2020 @ 1:03pm 
I've subscribed to this set of challenges on Steam, but when I go to Challenges it doesn´t appear any Solar System Exploration Challenges.
osirish 19 Mar, 2020 @ 12:47pm 
Great campaign. Thanks a million. Keeping the game fresh.
Amber Doe 8 Oct, 2019 @ 3:25pm 
Sweet and balanced challenges. Really fun to play. Thank you for your work, it was really worth it!
Brother-Redemptor 23 Sep, 2019 @ 9:03pm 
Please some modder add tunnels to the game. It really opens up some placement options for utilities later in-game.
=FC=Carbonizer 23 Sep, 2019 @ 5:54am 
I very much enjoyed playing this , Thank for your hard work
darren67 9 Jul, 2019 @ 12:23pm 
I agree with Aecenad...Pluto is the 9th planet. I think it is a clear case of 'planet-envy' to me!

Great mod all the same. Thanks for sharing all of your hard work.
dcjinva 19 May, 2019 @ 1:21pm 
You the man! I found it right away, just did not see the scroll bar in the Challenges screen before. Like I said, I can be pretty dense... Thanks!
Nestaron  [author] 19 May, 2019 @ 1:10pm 
When you load the game go to Challenges and then scroll down until you see the Solar System Exploration set of Challenges.
dcjinva 19 May, 2019 @ 1:09pm 
I've "subscribed" to this set of challenges on Steam, but how do I actually load/play them? I assume I'm dense and this is a very simple thing to do, but I've have not done DLC-type stuff before. Thanks.
Robert 9 Feb, 2019 @ 12:37am 
Then it should be planet 10 or planet X
Nestaron  [author] 8 Feb, 2019 @ 4:37pm 
Planet Nine in this scenario is not Pluto.
CMKpower 8 Feb, 2019 @ 3:28pm 
Why's everyone talking about Pluto when Pluto isn't even mentioned in this?
Hasn't everyone heard about Planet Nine at this point? If not, why would are people jumping to the conclution that it's reffering to Pluto?

Looking forward to try this though.
nixtempestas 26 Jan, 2019 @ 12:27pm 
It never ceases to amaze me just how agitated people can get when taling about the Pluto planet/dwarf planet "controversy"

Seriously, who cares? it's classification has no impact on it's astrogeological composition, interesting orbital characteristics, historical astronomical significance etc.

When using the term "Planet Nine" these days, it is very clearly referring to the hypothetical super Earth, not Pluto, Nibiru/Planet X or any other Kuiper Belt/Oort Cloud object, real or imagined.
Robert 8 Jan, 2019 @ 2:21am 
What do you mean "proposed" planet nine
Just call it Pluto
Pommes Commander 1 Jan, 2019 @ 10:49am 
we will more new planets and challenge please
Hecke1605 22 Nov, 2018 @ 5:24am 
Sehr gut
piddlefoot 20 Oct, 2018 @ 1:37pm 
They will never defeat Pluto the planet !
All the other bodies that size have names too, its just most them are numbers, Pluto is special, it was the first one we saw out there, leave Pluto alone !
j_schie 11 Oct, 2018 @ 1:48pm 
Im having some trouble with this... I just got it onto my planetbase game because it seems super cool. But every single time i go to build something, an error screen pops up saying i do not have the permission to do it. So i dont know what to do about that? Every time it happens the whole game just freezes
Mystericwolf 9 Oct, 2018 @ 8:22pm 
@ Dunestyler - We know how to write - that's unbelievably lazy to insist that something isn't what it clearly is, becuase "it's so hard to remember." I'm just going to call you "bot" now, since all you trolls look alike... How about our solar system isn't as simplistic as some charlitans out there would have us believe. (Knuckleheads STILL think that the sun is bomb...yeah, I'll take their advice on planetary physics - NEVER!!) :steamhappy:
Dunestyler 8 Sep, 2018 @ 12:46am 
on Pluto:
ok it's really pretty simple:
if you want Pluto to be a planet, get ready to 1. give us around 200 memorable names and 2. remember around 300 new names for planets.
I think, that practicality should be put into consideration when talking about the definition of "planet" and as it is not practical, to remember this many names, (you can usually only remember around 120 names of people... much less planets you don't really care about), Pluto is simply not a planet^^
ret7army 7 Sep, 2018 @ 11:07pm 
Nice campaign by the way
ret7army 7 Sep, 2018 @ 11:05pm 
well the shut the airlock trick finally worked for me took awhile but got past that stage and now working on being the defender 21 days down and a lot of work to be done before the time runs out ...
Nestaron  [author] 7 Sep, 2018 @ 7:57pm 
There are some people who believe that Pluto should still be considered a full fledge planet. I'm not going to get into a debate on that topic. However, for the purpose of this challenge "That" planet nine is the one proposed to be affect the orbits of the dwarf planets out in the Kuiper Belt.

I wrote up short one page or less "stories" for each challenge, but I couldn't fit everything into the challenge box in game. It would have been more obvious with the stories which one i was referring to.
Dunestyler 7 Sep, 2018 @ 12:21pm 
which planet nine is "that" planet nine? I only know the one proposed for reasons of the behavior of the orbit of other celestial bodies.
ret7army 5 Sep, 2018 @ 10:56pm 
Ah the joys of getting to 200 prestige ... every time I get above 150 invaders attack ... almost stopped them last time, was shutting down the airlocks ... sigh, but missed one ... well there's next time. ;)
Nestaron  [author] 5 Sep, 2018 @ 3:01pm 
I will update the text to say medium lab.
ret7army 4 Sep, 2018 @ 8:43am 
ah, good to know ... working it, still have a ways to go on this stage
jibche 3 Sep, 2018 @ 10:18pm 
ret7army, medium size lab does the job, you might need to build some other building at large size. I just built my buildings with maximum size.
