Mod Dlya Spore Scale Limit
See the TL;DR segment at the bottom if this is too long for you to read. 'The planets are an average of 500 somethings, with a range in size between 400 and 700 somethings.' This is from the Siggraph 2007 Planet Lecture.
But just how big is a Something? The creators of Spore have seemingly done all they can to hide any reference to real world size units, aside from the Parsec. The Parsec is on a totally different scale from planets, and given the following information I heavily doubt it has any bearing on the real world parsec distance. DISCLAIMER: All of these are based upon close estimations and may be off by quite a bit. We're not being too precise here. Obviously the planets in spore are small. The buildings and trees and things are visible from orbit.
But just how small is it? Because of the fact that the trees appear to be far, far bigger than cities, we can't use them for scale. They're too different from any real world trees that we have to throw them out. What about Creatures? Well at first this appears to be a dead end, but there is one thing which saves us. The Maxis-Made creation.

Spore Space Mod: No Galactic Core Travel Limit « on: 2008 September 30, 04:38:13 » Hi, this is a mod that removes the limit on your interstellar drive when near the galactic core.
Because of the apparently similar build, appearance, and name, I am going to make the assumption that an Al Packa is the same size as a real world Alpaca. This may be wrong, but it's the only creature we have in Spore canon that could possibly correspond directly to an Earth creature. An Alpaca is 1 meter from the top of the shoulder to the ground. The head of an Al Packa and an Alpaca is somewhat different, so we will have to use a proportion to find the height of the Al Packa based only on the body of the Alpaca. I chose a height of 1.85 meters from ear tips to ground. I put an Alpaca in a Civ Stage game, and measured his size compared to one of the small circle textures in the city's ground. One of those circles is 7 Al Packas across.
A city is 8 circlethings across. () A large city is 103.6 meters across. That's really small for a city. So then I had to find out how big a City was compared to a planet. So I loaded up my space stage game, and opened the planet Sporepedia, and found. Using this, I found that a planet is about 8 cities in diameter. So that's 103.6 times 8.
829 meters across. A planet is 829 meters in diameter. That's not even a single kilometer, and just over half a mile. Assuming my homeworld planet had a size of about 650 Somethings, a single Something is 1.27 meters (4.17 feet), For the purposes of being nice and round, and giving Spore a fighting chance at being large, let's make it 1.5 meters per something. I initially hypothesized that the rescale factor from real scale to spore scale was about 4/500, or 0.008. I was wrong by almost two orders of magnitude.
And all of this gives a rescale factor in actuality of 0.00014. For every 1 Real Earth Diameter, you could fit nearly 7143 Spore Earths in the same length. If you had a hollowed out Earth, you would be able to fit over 364.4 Billion Spore Earths inside. Let's have some fun and calculate the density of a world needed in order to have 1 gee of surface gravity and a radius of a Spore planet. We'll use the PlanetMaker equation. All of these units are in Earth units equal to 1. Surface Gravity = Mass / Radius 3 = Density(Radius) Plugging in for the Spore Planet we get: 1 gee = Density(0.00014) Density = 7142.857 Earth Densities.
Earth Density 5.51 g/cm 3. Density for Spore planets is 39,357,158.6 kg / m 3.
White dwarf stellar remnants in the real world have a density of 1,000,000,000. That's only two orders of magnitude of difference, like the difference between styrofoam and osmium. One more thing. We now know the size of a Spore planet, so let's figure out the size of gas giants, stars, and planetary orbits. According to this image, SporeEarth's semiMajorAxis is seven SporeEarthDiameters from the Sun's center. So one Spore AU is about 5.81 kilometers.
That is also exceedingly tiny. The rescale factor for Spore Orbits appears to be 1/25,000,000, or 0.00000004. That's 3500 times smaller than the planet size rescale. That would be like if the Earth orbited the Sun at a distance of 42,000 kilometers. As for the size of the Gas Giants and Yellow Stars: • Yellow Stars are 4 SporeEarthDiameter across, or 3.3 km across.
• Gas Giants are about 2.25 SporeEarthDiameter across, or 1.9 km across. • Comets appear to be the size of a building. • Moons are about 1/2 the diameter of a SporeEarthDiameter.
TL;DR • Spore homeworld planets are about 830 meters (2723 feet) in Diameter. • Spore's Earth orbits about 6 kilometers (3.72 miles) from the Sun. • Spore's gas giants are about 1.9 km (1.2 miles) across. Serial numbers cracks keygens. • Spore's small Moon-sized objects are about 415 meters (1361.55 feet) in Diameter. • Spore planets are around 7000 times smaller than real planets (Rescale factor of 0.00014) • Spore orbits are around 25 million times smaller than real planet's orbits. (Rescale factor of 0.00000004) • Conclusion: Spore planets are really small.
