And because not everyone will want this, I will of course be adding it to the growing list of options that can be turned off.

Lol, we all like (the) options ;P

1. It primarily uses HUD elements to communicate alignment to the player. Thus it has a very custom HUD in play. So, if I want to try something funky for planetary landings, I'm going to have to come up with a system that will work with any HUD. Or have a custom HUD that I switch to when the dockin...

Perhaps all we need is a single reasonably rich sequence to represent all landings. The descent through the clouds in the last video is great. I am not sure the visual of coming down to the landing pad is needed but I am not opposed to it either. Sometimes the 'clouds', sometimes the landing pad(s)...

But in Oolite we not only have different human cultures (and economies and political systems) but also the species. A lobstoid city (Azaqu, Uscela etc ... Teorge?) should look ...

Somehow somewhere in my brains it;s connected to the landings from frontier elite 2 amiga

Nice, Good promotion for the Adder-start...

I'm not a big fan of AI, but I have to say it can really work well for the task of creating images for someone like me who can't draw: https://i.postimg.cc/8PFzyspN/planet-Fall2-city-5.png https://i.postimg.cc/X7T7t3qF/planet-Fall2-military-3.png https://i.postimg.cc/L4QsBjMx/planet-Fall2-moonfacto...
