Same scene, different viewpoints
Experimenting with making explosions more intense.

Looks impressive. The explosion looks like a lot of hot gas is released. But I'd no expert on outer space explosions, and the whole thing is just a game for fun. So make it looking nice...

Wow! I'm using the second one as my laptop wallpaper now, it's so good.

Some of the smaller explosions look a bit weird but then a still image is a bit of a false perspective for explosions...
Despite this, I agree with the others, just trying to be constructive.
The big explosion looks great, well done

At present I have got a working FSD drive that I named the OFD drive. Navigating is really easy and automatics take care of you not plunging into a planet. It only needs an escape vector for when people decide to land on planets via other OXPs.
Oh well a video shows it all best, and allow me to make you my willing victims of experimenting with youtube moneytisation. it means there will be adds

I posted another video

There is a snag at the end, but that is what testing is about, then showing the hud at the end.
Frame: did you ever finish any of this? I can't find anything published...
I'm particularly interested in your asteroid rings and your to-scale solar systems, as well as the barycenters, the HUD and your Babylon5 work.

Would you mind if I use this image as part of a thumbnail for my YouTube series?

Fantastic, thank you. You've got the two most iconic Oolite/Elite objects in one shot, perfectly framed. It's a fantastic showcase.
