White spice time

123defacto · 07-11-2009, 09:32 PM

A empire has built a colony on the planet with the city ruin in the beggining of my game- it doesn't have any spice.
So maybe if i buy the colony, it will mine white spice for me! ...maybe...

What do you think?

Ghelae · 07-11-2009, 10:13 PM

Actually, I think that planet ends up producing blue spice. It's happened to me before, and always ended up blue. You can try it, though, anyway.

i dont know what it ends up producing but if you need plants to terreform its a goldmine

No.
The only possible thing that could end up with white spice is if the colony is stationed on a gas-giant, otherwise there is no white spice to be farmed.

What's White Spice worth? Or don't any of the other Empires buy it from you?

TacRebel · 10-11-2009, 09:53 AM

It depends on how much the trading partner is willing to pay for it.

Well, yeah, of course. But I mean, is it GENERALLY more valuable than say, purple spice? In what 'spice range' can I place it?

TacRebel · 10-11-2009, 10:11 AM

The top.
It is the highest valueable spice.

Shrooblord · 10-11-2009, 10:12 AM

Cool glitch, then!

I want a Gas Colony...

TacRebel · 10-11-2009, 10:15 AM

It is no glitch, I suggest it is a remaining part of something they once wanted to add, as the Spice even has its own Icon.

I also think that it could be possible that one day you will be able to place "air" colonies on gas giants, and then - it will be habitable.

Stitch1200 · 10-11-2009, 05:47 PM

Nope White spice is only made is you mess with the Code on Spore. If you make the spice probablity Rateing. if it dosen't add up to 100% The remainder is filled in with white Spice.

E.G.:

Red Spice 40%
Green Spice 15%
Blue Spice: 15%
Purple Spice: 5%
Pink Spice: 10%

The remaining 15% Will be filled with White Spice

TacRebel · 10-11-2009, 05:49 PM

No.
White Spice is avaible if a colony is placed by a NPC empire on a gas-giant.

Stitch1200 · 10-11-2009, 05:54 PM

nope. Mess with spores Code for spice and You get white spice. the older members will tell you

TacRebel · 10-11-2009, 06:24 PM

Sorry, but I allready HAD white spice from the gas-giant colonies, and I play the game since its release.

TheMrZ · 10-11-2009, 07:29 PM

you can get white both ways, the reason you do is that on a gas giant, the probability of any of the other spice types is 0%, so the remaining 100% is white

the same might well happen for the ship planet or city planet.

Possible experiment: Teraform the ship planet to T3, and then destroy your homeworld using the "any tool any planet" mod, so that you can Place a monolith on the ship planet

Wait for the ship planet to get a sentient space stage species on it, then set up a trade route and buy the planet off them.

what spice does it produce.

that'd be a way to get a lot of white spice! do same to city planet (except no need to destroy homeworld)

Also potential possibility; go to one of your save files in windows explorer and edit the "planets" document to try and force while spice (or turn a planet into a gas giant!)

edit: scratch the last one without proper software, just opened with notepad, looks like "bleurgh" of symbols....sigh

Spaceship planet?
Now you got my attention

TheMrZ · 11-11-2009, 12:19 AM

tha planet you find the crashed spaceship? on the VERY FIRST part of space stage!

there's no planet that looks like a spaceship, if that's what you're thinking. Though I did once find a small moon that turned out to be a space station.

Well, you could have been a lot clearer on that reference.

I've never come across White Spice before myself, but now I hear how many people have, I'm almost sure it exists. Just like cube planets... I want to see one of those too. No, I want to own one and walk it with my Holoscout.
