But it's not in it's normal Star texture. Try doing it yourself - you'll see what I mean.

I was so stupid. I was been thinking about it like bug. But Wolf shouldn't be a star, so the planets orbiting must be dark from one part.

 Wolf 359 is a Red Dwarf star (with luminosity).   It is not a Brown Dwarf and definitely not a Gas Giant.

Wolf is being rendered at a transitional phase, between a gas giant and a star. So it will have elements of both bodies, such as the heat glow you're seeing, and the red coloration. We're still working on more detailed rendering of bodies in transitional states. It might be a while before we've got that all working 100% the way we would like.
