Natural Language Search using systempopulation variable

I have tried every way I can think of to make a query that will return systems with their systempopulation values. So far, my closest attempt has been:

Systems with, Population > 1, show systempopulation

which returns the right systems, and shows the systempopulation variable in the results, but none of the values for systempopulation are displayed.

am i missing the term for the variable? is this not a searchable variable?

Thanks in advance for your help.

  • I think what you are looking for is ChildPopulation, not SystemPopulation. ChildPopulation returns the population of the body plus all its child bodies.
    ChildPopulation > 1000000
    

    If you want a list of systems (not individual planets), you'd do
    Root only, ChildPopulation > 1000000
    

    You don't have to add the column with 'Show'. Since the column is part of the query, it will automatically add it.
  • Thanks! is there a list somewhere with all of the search variables that can be used?
  • Yes, in the Help file, go to Appendix -> Natural Language Search -> Searching Numeric Properties
