The short naming of central command has been really inconsistent across the game's files. This has always annoyed the shit out of me. CentComm and Centcomm and Centcom are now all CentCom, specifically with that capitalization. Why one M instead of two M's? Because Comm with two 'M's = Communications. Hence, Telecomms, NOT Telecoms. Telecoms is incorrect. CentCom was also chosen because CentCom with one M and this casing is most found throughout the game's files. Speaking of Telecomms, I corrected one instance in the game where it's Telecom. Like I said, this is not correct. There was only one inconsistency. Likewise, Nanotrasen has been changed to NanoTrasen. Nanotrasen only appears 20 times, where NanoTrasen appears 62. NanoTrasen is clearly the preferred, correct naming.

name = "Erebus"
|
|
desc = "Erebus was regarded for centuries as an uninteresting substellar companion to Nyx, itself a relatively uninteresting red dwarf. \
|
|
Massing at 44.7 times that of Jupiter, Erebus is a T-Class brown dwarf with a surface temperature of 963K, just above the melting point \
|
|
of aluminium. However, the presence of Phoron in and around Erebus has driven much of the activity of the first half of the 26th century \
|
|
in the Nyx system. Orbiting 39.8 AU from Nyx with an eccentricity of 4%, it takes a bit more than 315 standard years for Erebus to orbit Nyx. \
|
|
With over 80 moons with diameters more than 5 kilometers and hundreds smaller than that, Erebus is a hub of mining and corporate warfare. \
|
|
The most notable moon, but not the largest, is Roanake, a dwarf planet in its own right, which orbits with a high enough eccentricity to \
|
|
have significant volcanic activity due to tidal heating."

name = "NSS Exodus"
|

desc = "A highly profitable research, mining, and supply dock for NanoTrasen that serves as one of their many facilities in exploiting the \

wonders of phoron. It is currently orbiting around Erebus and maintains close contact with the NAS Crescent. The station itself has been \

a target for a large number of Mercenaries and other companies wishing to steal NanoTrasen's secrets."

name = "NAS Crescent"
|
|
desc = "The main hub for NanoTrasen in the Nyx system and is commonly referred to it by their workers as central command or \"CentCom\". \
|
|
The Crescent refines and stores much of the products that stations (such as the Exodus) bring in. It is also a large refueling and supply \
|
|
station of phoron and tritium in the Nyx system due to NanoTrasen being able to outsell almost any other company."

desc = "A relatively sub-par housing station that has a large population of aliens. The facility has areas for shopping, \

a few restaurants, and multiple blocks for living arrangements. The station is crowded, busy, and the air quality is a recurring issue. \
|

Nonetheless, it allows lower income spacers the means to travel in the Nyx system."

/datum/locations/void_star
|
|
name = "The Void Star"
|
|
desc = "No one quite knows who founded the Void Star, or indeed who actually manages the place. Theories range from a corporate money-laundry \
|
|
operation to interstellar mobsters, with the more far-fetched even suggesting the place has always been there, like some kind of haunt. \
|
|
Theories about the station's management are just as varied, though those who have been deep \"behind the scenes\" generally claim \
|
|
they've spoken to shrouded figures, ranging from one to a whole panel of three to eight. \
|
|
The Void Star is best described as a casino, complete with all the garish neon, advertisements and flashing lights such a description would entail. \
|
|
Orbiting at the edge of the Hauler's Tragedy, the Void Star can sometimes even be spotted with the naked eye - flashing and pulsing through \
|
|
the dull, dark asteroid belt like a beacon, broadcasting all manner of advertisements and promises for the gullible on just about any unencrypted \
|
|
frequency - occasionally bleeding over into encrypted frequencies, too. \
|
|
Despite the Star's remote location, traffic tends to be heavy. Despite the proximity to Brinkburn, the Star remains a relatively safe \
|
|
place - as safe as anywhere in Nyx would be, anyway. The Star employs a well-equipped fleet of defense craft, mercenaries and sophisticated \
|
|
drones, all ruthlessly enforcing the peace. As long as you have money you're willing to spend, the Void Star welcomes just about anyone. \
|
|
Some even call the Star home, as the sprawling asteroid-station offers hotel services; luxurious or spartan. Addicts, smugglers, pirates and \
|
|
privateers - you'll find them all at the Void Star, ostensibly at their best behavior."

surveys have been performed on the night side. Undergoing orbital decay due to the influence of Euthenia; expected to break apart due to tidal \
|
|
forces within 50 million years."

desc = "A superearth near the outer edge of the habitable zone, Yulcite has 40% higher surface gravity than Earth. \

desc = "A superneptune massing at 46 time that of Earth, Euthenia is one of the few planets still commonly called it's original survey designation. \
|
|
(The surveyor is noted to have a preference for ancient Greek mythology) As an ice giant, Euthenia has had consistent economic stability thanks to \
|
|
the presence of fuel depots supplied by the giants atmosphere." |
