To give you some idea of what kind of information is expected for
each of these headings, here is a brief description of what each of
them might entail.
UFPDOCA Official Submission Template
---------------------------------------------------------------
Colony Name: self-explanatory
Creator: If you created this world on your own,
simply supply your own name. Otherwise,
please detail the co-creators of the
planet, since we do want to give credit
to those who have earned it.
===============================================================
GEOGRAPHY
System/Location: Name of system, and location. If your
colony is located near a neutral zone,
near disputed territory, etc., please
detail that information here.
Distance to Nearest Starbase:
Approximate time, in days/weeks at Warp 6,
to the nearest Federation starbase. This
tells how remote the colony is, and also
has a significant impact on how soon help
could arrive from Starfleet. This base
need not be one of the fleet command bases
(ALPHA, GAMMA, DELTA, etc.). It can be
one of the 'lesser' starbases, an outpost,
DS station, etc.
Planet Classification: M-Class, L-Class, etc. This tells other
players how large your planet is, and
what kind of atmosphere it has. A full
catalogue of the alphabetical planet
classification system Star Trek uses is
available on the DOCA website to help you out.
If the colony has a non-oxygen atmosphere,
please detail what kind of atmosphere. Also,
if the colony's gravity is significantly over
or under 1G (Earth gravity), please detail
this information here.
Satellites/Space Stations:
Number of moons, and whether or not they
are inhabited. Please also supply whether
or not there are any orbiting space
stations.
Land/Water Ratio: Percent land/percent water.
Climate Controlled: Yes/No. Some colonies will be, others will
not.
Native Sentient Life: Yes/No. Again, some colonies will have it,
and others will not.
==================================================================
COLONY INFORMATION
Colony Age (approximate):
Years since the foundation of the colony.
You may also, if you have a specific year
in mind, supply that information, but that
is not necessary--you may approximate.
Population (approximate):
Again, exact figures are not necessary.
You may approximate this number to the
nearest million, thousand, hundred, etc.
Species Present: If the colony is almost entirely human,
you may simply put 'Human' in this field.
If there are a significant number of non-
humans present (over 5 percent), please
detail the percentages involved.
Colony Status: This field describes the colony's official
and unofficial relationship with the UFP.
Many colonies will be 'UFP Protectorates,'
but others will be of other classes;
independent, eg.
Government: If the colony has a specific form/manner
of governing itself, detail this here.
Some colonies will be in states of
'anarchy.' If this is the case, please
detail how bad the situation is.
Major Cities/Settlements:
Self-explanatory. This field may be left
blank, if necessary.
History: Detail (briefly) the colony's history.
Please include any important events,
treaties, etc. here. Be detailed, but
don't try to explain everything.
Economy: Most will be latinum-based, though depending
on other factors (tech level, government,
etc.), their economy could be based on
something else. Also, this would be where
you would detail any major products the
world is noted for, or industries.
Tech Level: Level of technology. For most worlds, this
will simply be 'Modern,' though, some may
be less advanced.
Culture: Culture and society of the world. Describe
what, if anything, makes the colony unique.
Notes: Use this field to cover anything that the
other fields fail to cover.
If you have further questions, please use the colonies already
submitted as examples. Good luck!
