Atmosphere LOD?

Post by JensAyton »

In the current SVN version, I’m seeing planetary atmospheres rendered at a much lower tesselation than the planet, essentially resulting in grey triangles of atmosphere along the limb of the planet.

Mm. I just noticed something like that. I'll look into it.

I made some changes to how update: works out the zero_distance (the d2 to the player) that may be causing it.

I don't know why that happened, but I just committed a fix that works around the problem.
