Hey there,
first things 1st, my 1st post wooooo
, ok ive got that out of my system (pun not intended)
ok so i recently bought steam version of Universe Sandbox, startup errors aside... Would anyone be kind enough to tell me wether I can freeze the ecentricity of the orbit of planets? I am working on a little (quie big) projcet (not telling what going to be a suprise
) and i can do everything fine but i leave a bit of the simulation running for about 5 minutes real time and i find that the planets have now got eliptical orbits instead of nice circular ones that are well... required. I love the dynamicness of the sandbox but for this i really dont need eliptical orbits.
Something that may help and should give away what im doing. The one thing that might be affecting it is other starts, I am bulding several solar systems each within thier own cluser, up to four in each cluster, 16 clusters BTW
. so could the star's gravity be pulling them off? I discounted this after the eliptical orbits were actually facing away from the other system, so i am a tad confused.
So to sumarize my point, is there a way i can freeze ecentricity?
thanks in advance
