Height Map Suggestion
« on: June 27, 2018, 07:36:17 PM »
An idea I've had for a while for Universe Sandbox 2 was the implementation of a height map importer/exporter. I think it would be a really cool way to design planets that you want to have a specific detail. It could also be able to be used to edit existing planets and change a few features of the body as well. You might also be able to export a height map for other uses like a 3D model for instance. I hope you will consider my idea because I believe it will be an interesting and fun addition to the game. Thank you.

That's a great idea. Yes, of course it would be a great idea to add a height map importer and exporter to Universe Sandbox 2 so that users can create their own custom textures as they like.

Me too, I would like to be able to create my own custom textures for rocky planets in Universe Sandbox 2. Modifying how landmasses and oceans are and look like on rocky planets are a good idea.
