Doctor Who mod for EV Nova (dEVros?)

One day, I decided to try my hand at making a Doctor Who-themed mod for Escape Velocity Nova. The problem is I need some help gathering information on spaceships from Doctor Who, along with some starmaps. I can get a list of planets off Wikipedia, the problem is knowing where to place them. And, of course, getting sprites for the planets, though I can probably re-use some. I'll mainly need some help with details, mostly because I can't refer to episodes as Roobarb has them all and she's at university.

I'm also working on a storyline, but ideas would be welcomed for that too.

Oh, and if this is in the wrong forum, sorry. I'm not quite sure where to put it.

Right now I just need help making graphics, putting together a starmap, and designing some Who-related ships and ship equipment. Anyone want to help out? I'm thinking of giving gold to helpers as I have a whole load of surplus gold I don't need.

Aww, poor Stress has no episodes...

Be happy in the knowledge that they're keeping me alive.

If you do need a little more help there is my Big Book of Doctor Who still sat on my bookshelf behind the door. Of course if you crease the luvverly shiny Daleks cover I shall be forced to kill you.

BTW I think it strongly depends on which time zone/era you're going for as to where planets end up. For instance Mondas was once Earth's twin so it would have been spinning on the opposite side of the sun from Earth (I assume that's what they mean by twin planet...) up until the point it got knocked off course and became all cold and deadly.

Then there are several planets that got exploded.

Thanks! Information about important materials and the like is quite important as that then makes traderoutes around the galaxy. Buy low, sell high.

Regards time, I'm deciding when to have it. Currently I'm thinking maybe sometime in the 5000s? And don't worry, I'll be careful with the Doctor Who book. mrgreen

It would be really helpful if people gave ideas. I can't think creatively at the moment.

EDIT: Just found my Dalek Survival Guide! It's going to be REALLY useful for making the Dalek race and ships. Oh, and they released Apeiron for OSX, btw. xp
