The list on this page:

What do you mean by only one planet?
Are you looking for something that just shows you the sky?

it's kind of difficult for me to explain... something like: you have a planet and you can choose to just watch it or shape it by launching asteroids on it.. something like that

My mistake, monmarfori, you already posted that link.

Title: Re: planet sim?
Post by: monmarfori on April 24, 2009, 04:45:25 PM

you're making a mistake. what. i think it i had java 6 update 13. will need a latest java to run games on dan-ball.jp

No one ever said Java was a problem, Monmarfori.

the reason why I asked this is... on national geographic there was a simulation of how the earth was made, and they showed a simulation program in which they showed how the moon became part of the earth (you know what i mean) and I've been searching for something like that ever since

vaaern:

I haven't seen a good simulator like what you're describing. I've seen some images and simulations, but I don't think that anyone's developed or released anything for the casual astronomer.

Let me know if you find anything. I'd love to play with that myself.

(Although I also plan to improve collisions in a future release, after the UI improvements are complete.)

I was afraid of that answer :D I haven't found anything, but if i do, I'll post it here somewhere

Title: Re: planet sim?
Post by: SuperNova on May 17, 2009, 07:13:27 AM

I found one!, I found one!

I think that those National Geographic simulations were done by supercomputers. Also on the omni thng, if you place a wormhole next to a planet with an atmosphere, the wormhole will rip away the atmosphere.
