I don't think any other simulator can reach the awesomeness of Universe Sandbox, sorry. :P :)

yer the next step from US is a simulator that cost £1,000's then after that £1,000,000's and come with a supercomputer i havent come across anything as good as US even stuff that costs loads isn't as user friedly as US most stuff takes ages of typing out math and numbers before it will show you anything and you can't interact with it unless you stop the simulation and change the numbers not fun at all

US is by far the best 1 out that iv come across so far

Describe what you'd like to see in a program that let you make comets or planets.
- How would you make planets?
- What options would be available?

The creation options for bodies (planets, moons, stars) will be notably improved in version 2 but still might not be as complete as what you're describing.

Tell me how you'd like this to work so that I can improve this feature in a future version of Universe Sandbox.

I'm not sure, but is it possible to import custom models into US?

well i want to have a simulator where you can shape comets into a form you want and shoot them to a planet (like US) and when it impacts, its very cool to see that, it looks like a real impact and can create moons/smaller objects from the planet

seeing a solarsystem formation would be soooooooooo awesome

It would be cool if there was a game where you could control everything on Earth. Create the planet, produce moons, create life, design diseases, creat events, and when you're done create a gravitational anomily and launch a bunch of rocks into the Earth to destroy everything. Expantion packs would include Venus, Mars, and various other planets along with the ability to connect with a future version of universe sandbox. This would make this one of the most complete simulators ever!!!

P.S. Does anyone think they can make this?

P.S.S. I've had this idea for a while but I was afraid to give it to the world. Now, the world has it.

myn too ive been waiting for something like that for ages spore doesn't quite hit it on the nail if ya know what i mean
i was reading up on the forums on infinity the quest for earth a wile ago and some 1 wanted to use the engine from that to do exactly what you said

if you haven't seen the engine for infinity your missing out type in to youtube

 inifinity: The Quest For Earth - Planet Landing/Take Off

see why some 1 wanted to use it for that purpose maybe when its done someone might do something like that with it in the future whats in this video is only 1 system out of 100's of millions all unique

In fact there will be 200 billion unique star systems. :)
It'll be very exciting to follow the game as it's being developed, just dreaming about playing it. :P
