Ovals is what he means. Like an object editing mode.

I assume the objects are made out of polygons, so it might be possible to make a small, simple editor where you can drag the polygons or something, making custom shapes.

Instead of calling it a comet shaper, call it a object shaper, cause comet shaper doesnt make sense. Its like you only shape comets.

Agreed. However, perhaps we shouldn't be able to shape large bodies, since they would be in hydrostatic equilibrium (or whatever it was called :P)...
