Idea: Update Chart Mode: Relative Tree
« on: July 29, 2009, 12:18:54 AM »
I had this weird idea if we can arrange the celestial object to their parents.
Here how is works:




Chart Mode:       Galaxy    
                           Star
                         Planets
                          Moons

So if i click planets what happens? It shows planets? There would have to be a way to describe what is what in files.

If i understood well, it will show a sort of relation tree. Eg: Milkyway ===> Sun ===> Earth (and all the other planets) ===> Moon EC.

Yeah, if it shows the moon it will be like this:        ---- Jupiter        ---- Saturn
                                                                                     Europa               Mima
                                                                                      Io                      Titan
                                                                                      Ganymede

Yes, like that.

Well, that's better! Just call it relation tree, and it will automatically do all of them.

That's a great idea Naru523. I'll add this 'relation tree' option to Chart Mode for sure.

Another option I've already got working is random positioning. It duplicated the results of the "Solar System Jumble" simulation.
