Trivia

 * The only time Planet 4546B and its moons are all simultaneously visible is during a world's loading screen.
 * Planet 4546B is most likely located in the Habitable Zone, a section in a solar system where life can thrive.
 * However, given the size of the sun seen during the loading screen, it is not possible for Planet 4546B to be within the Habitable Zone, but the ingame sun appears to be closer than in the loading screen. This is most likely a developer oversight.
 * According to IAU convention, this planet would be the first planet discovered to orbit the star 4546 (the convention says nothing of orbital proximity).
 * Planet 4546B may be based off of the real-life planet Gliese 1214B, as both appear similar in appearance, and are both "water worlds".
