Im have trouble recreating this system
http://www.extrasolar.net/mainframes.html
around a fictional star. Every things worked perfectly, except the that the planets are round 2000-1500 degrees K when they should be around 200-150 degrees K. Does anyone have any suggestions?

never mind, i fixed it

The extrasolar.net news is terribly outdated. The headline that reads something about simulations showing a habitable planet can exist in some nearby star system refer to some computer modeling done of 55 Cancri, that suggested a habitable planet could easily form in the habitable zone. In November of 2007, a Saturn-mass planet 55 Cancri f was announced, and it resides in the habitable zone. So the hypothetical habitable planet idea won't work anymore. The news report about a planet in a close triple system is also outdated. The planet was found to be spurious.

The original Extrasolar Visions forum has been abandoned and no longer works. A new one has been created at http://solar-flux.forumandco.com

yeah, i noticed that, the main reason i use it is for inspirational orbital characteristics and systems, and pretty pictures
