Sorry, sometimes I can be as clear as mud: I meant it's already in trunk - when I changed the initPlanet code last week, I did a more thorough job than I realised!

Hey, free OXPs: farsun v1.05 & tty v0.5! :0)
Pagroove, here's Laenin's screenshot, as requested:
And now, a glimpse at a brighter future!
(from 1.73 onwards we should be able to customise suns colour, radius & corona settings - this is a quite garish attempt at a really big corona. It's very much at the beta stage, though...)

Really really great to have this much wished feature. I almost cannot believe this becomes possible great work. I chose Laenin because I think it's one of the best textures in the upcoming Famous Planets pack.
And what a suprise that we can have customized coloured suns. This was another requested feature. Can you post a shot with a red giant?
Speaking of upcoming. I have Famous Planets 2.0.oxp packaged and ready. Tomorrow is launch day.
@ Overmage
As you can see Laenin is part of Famous Planets 2.0.oxp. Well the story of Laenin is that they played an important part in the spreading of Coommunism or Communism but somehow missed the boat benefiting from it on a technologial scale. However Laenin is an important place of pilgrimage for Communist people around galaxy 1.

I think I will pass on Planetfall. No fun landing at a planet if its only some 50km in diameter.Thargoid wrote:They're views from within the atmosphere of the planet looking upward. If you get to a very low altitude you'll see the changes. But if you're going to do it, I'd recommend having Planetfall installed, so you land on the planet gracefully rather than going splat on it like a bugaceshigh wrote:uh... why is space light blue as the sky in some of the pics?
Ah, but given how much you can fit into a cargo bay, just think how much you can fit onto a planet, even one as small as that

Wha? You have a criteria? How do you tell? Do you have a cut out, fold out cardboard shape and if your planetoid pops right through you turn your nose up at it?aceshigh wrote:I think I will pass on Planetfall. No fun landing at a planet if its only some 50km in diameter.
"Your planet is a piffling trife sir! I would not dirty my space conveyances' landing gear with the fetid earth from such a small offering! I am an important space trader and I demand a certain minimum standard in planetary girth!"
So you'll land at "mere" kilometre wide stations and grubby little rock hemitages but when it comes to planets you suddenly get picky? There's no pleasing some people.

Probably not a good idea, given that a red giant would also be a very big sun (a giant of a sun, in fact). When our own sun reaches red giant status it will expand to the point that earth's current orbit will be within its diameter.pagroove wrote:And what a suprise that we can have customized coloured suns.

I am not sure if that would make landing on the primary planet much easier .

i think you missed the point. A station IS a station. Its quite big at 1km in diameter.ClymAngus wrote:Wha? You have a criteria? How do you tell?

Call those "planets" asteroids, make them look rocky and make them non-spherical (as 50km large celestial bodies are supposed to be) and I might like it.
To me, its a put off to have realism (ability to land) on such unreal things as 50km diameter planets.
I didnt need to check out your location to notice you are british..."Your planet is a piffling trife sir! I would not dirty my space conveyances' landing gear with the fetid earth from such a small offering! I am an important space trader and I demand a certain minimum standard in planetary girth!"
