¶ Asteroid Lots
Every square kilometer of surface area on an asteroid is called a “lot”, and represents a location where a building can be built, a lease created, or a Light Transport landed.
¶ Shape and Location
Lots are not literal squares, even though they each have roughly a square kilometer of surface area. Rather, they are laid out in a Fibonacci lattice on the surface of the asteroid. Accordingly, they have no fixed shape and are approximately, but not exactly, 1km separated from their neighbors.
¶ Number per Asteroid
The number of lots on an asteroid can be calculated from its radius in meters with the equation
floor(4 * pi * radius2 / 1000000)
The smallest asteroids in Adalia have 13 lots, while the largest, Adalia Prime, has 1768484!
