bugs/oddities/possible oversights
« on: November 28, 2013, 07:34:00 AM »
  • In advanced ambience (love the randomly generated background nebula), choosing your own colours won't apply until you generate a new seed.  screenshot
  • Odd shadows, however, this might just be without the presence of a star. screenshot
  • A star accidentally was scaled down to 5kg mass, then brought back up to 1 sun, loses it's textures and has a shadow. screenshot

Will be updated as more stuff pops up.

you cannot explode the sun in the solar system simulation (sandbox) so

One oversight would be failing to account for those with visual impairments since the way the text is currently is giving me real eye strain, so as an alpha tester, I formally request that you guys please try to fix this because it prevents me from testing it properly.

One bug, which I guess is due to black holes being incomplete, whenever I try to change the mass of it, its mass and diameter resets to that of a dust particle, even if I lock either value.

Also, I'm not sure whether this is a bug or oversight, but no habitable zone for very hot stars like Rigel and Deneb?

Is it me or does the multiple selection box simply stop working sometimes or not at all? I got it to work once somehow, but can't figure out how. Or maybe its just the simulation I'm using.

The highlight that shows up when I do ctrl+a has dissapeared as well as the usual when I select an object.

Edit: This problem is persistent through game sessions so I'm uninstalling and reinstalling.

"multiple selection box" ?
well i think it's suppose to disappear if you select a single planet

If you do collisions at fastest speed, the objects will pass through each other most of the time.
