Darkhalf, I don’t know why, but I just wanted to let you know I agree with you, and I think your comment was fair. The question was originally about how to best create atmospheres around planets, there have been some cryptic replies and a nice code snippet, but I don’t think the question was ever answered. And while Mustang’s demo looks really cool, I can’t see how adding city lights and all the complexities will help answer the original question that was asked.
My main problem is that it was a simple question which could have been answered by simple code, but it’s now turned into a project of mammoth proportions, with extra complexities which are rather cool I admit, do nothing to answer the original question.
I suppose we all have dreams of writing the next 3d Space game, we might have to experiment and work this one out on our own…
