1. Super heated planet after massive collision.
2. Rocky planet with craters and rings orbiting in a vertical axis instead of a horizontal axis.

Majestic double supernovae with a beautiful blue glare!

Guys to be more clear on my last post of the potato planet. :/
Not sure if thats supposed to be there...

That is kinda funny. XD

But also odd. If names are randomly generated, I guess it was only a matter of time before something like this would happen. Or maybe its an inside joke we don't know about. I think it is just a fluke. lol

I noticed that one too, though I am mature enough not to giggle any longer than a minute.

One of the new 32 body choreographies that will be available in Alpha 12...

Unlike the 3 body figure 8, most choreographies are unstable... as demonstrated in the 2nd screenshot.

I bet something like that exists somewhere IRL.

Not naturally, it require every objects to be the exact same mass.

Plutonium · « **Reply #369 on:** October 12, 2014, 09:42:55 PM »

Would be great to have a "Randomize Mass" button. So after setting up the choreography you hit the button and all the 32 bodies get different masses (within a given range).

But if you do that, the formation would become very unstable. All the bodies need the same mass most of the time to be stable.

Plutonium · « **Reply #371 on:** October 14, 2014, 12:34:04 AM »

I know, that's why I would love to click that button

....and watch how the stable system transforms into unstable.

Just added this. Not sure how interesting it is in practice... as only a couple of the simulations are stable anyway... and a 1% change in mass makes them almost instantly unstable. Either way... this feature will be in the next alpha release.

here, i made the sun 300 times more massier.
also, it's lagged out. if i click, the screen blinks and nothing happens. control new does nothing. if this keeps happeninng i'll post it to the bug section
however i could close it out

DiamondMiner10 · « **Reply #374 on:** October 19, 2014, 08:54:11 PM »

I have a mac so I don't lag much. Want me to try it and post the pics?

The Ventifact · « **Reply #375 on:** October 24, 2014, 09:15:26 PM »

A couple more for posterity:

1. Earth frozen over
2. High velocity impact

blotz · « **Reply #376 on:** October 28, 2014, 03:01:01 PM »

high compared to what?

I assume you are referring to my second image? Well, its just that, a fast moving object colliding with a planet. As for how fast, I don't know, I didn't pay attention to how fast the object was moving. Lets say it was an asteroid or meteor, the average speed is between 25,000 and 28,000 miles (or higher depending), so the "high velocity" impact can be compared to the average speed of a meteor or asteroid.

I just think the shots look cool. :P

i finally got around to making some new one's

This is a quite interesting Gas Giant...

Lord DC · « **Reply #380 on:** October 31, 2014, 11:05:45 AM »

"Aunus" LOL

Cryo · « **Reply #381 on:** October 31, 2014, 01:47:35 PM »

I think it's pronounced (Awnuus)

Lord DC · « **Reply #382 on:** October 31, 2014, 02:05:16 PM »

finally the gas giants arent all blue anymoar yay

gabriel.dac · « **Reply #383 on:** November 02, 2014, 12:30:24 PM »

The Earth is the only object in the simulation and for some reason there is a mysterious shadow there in the visualization.

Cryo · « **Reply #384 on:** November 02, 2014, 01:50:37 PM »

That shadow is you, if that makes any sense...it's a little hard to describe...

gabriel.dac · « **Reply #385 on:** November 03, 2014, 05:29:44 AM »

I know. But it shouldn't be me. I am just a point of view

Cryo · « **Reply #386 on:** November 03, 2014, 08:40:52 AM »

I keep making real life models of the Ice giant's home realm in Norse i think i need tah stop trying to perfect something that at the moment cannot be...cus of glitches and what not, any idea's as to what i could make next? a nice dry world? or hot Jupiter? speaking of gas giant's i love the new one's that have been added in.

Gordon Freeman · « **Reply #387 on:** November 03, 2014, 09:29:48 AM »

So beautiful ;-;

A cool screenshot
