Title: visual representation of gravity on space
Post by: demonkill227 on December 01, 2017, 01:31:57 PM
I was wondering if you were planning on adding a mode to see the effect of a planet, star, etc on space either on a 2d or 3d plane (eg. the pictures you get of earth and lines that travel under it to show gravity's effect.)

Well, it would certainly be cool, but that is based in Relativity...so it would either be a fake sort o graphics thing or your computer melts...which option do you choose?  :P In all seriousness though...how would that work in 3D? And with a lot of objects? Pretty sure that would be extremely difficult to implement. Though again, it would be cool.
