That's your answer to everything isn't it?  

You don't need to change the code at all. Put the player ship at 0,0,0 center the mission around it and the planet where ever you like.

Maybe in exchange for getting some of my designs into the game...

Yeah do that plz

Not really. Put the planet OUTSIDE the 60 km bounding box. Just in case.

Nah. Put it anywhere. If he wants to let players bump into it he can!

Sure, which ones you want?

Or should I just grab the dia for EVERYTHING! 'Gulp!'

Hmm it dosen't work if i make a planet outside the 60 km at mission start stand player coliside with ????

If anyone wants to make a real-sized Earth, I have a 4800x4200 (or so, can't quite remember) texture of it...

And?
FS2 support only 1024x1024 max.....or?

Actually, the TVWP could really use a nice map for an earth, as well as most of the other planets.

Raptor, could I get those textures also? Pretty please? [email protected]

i thought SCP upped those?

otherwise you can split up the map, and only show a portion of the planet, or split it up and use mulitple maps.

texture size is all dependant upon video cards

good morning all!

the two numbers next to a turret/subsystem are hp percentage (compared to that of the hull) and rotation time (time in seconds to make a 360 deg. turn).

ah, the turret rotation, didn't know it applied to other things as well, though I suppose it's fairly obvious in hindsight.

question about the size of texture maps, can anyone see an advantage by using a 1:pi ratio???  I figure it would work on a cylinder, as simple geometry would apply, but do you think it would work correctly on a sphere too?  or would it be slightly distorted?
since the circumfrence anywhere on a sphere\circle is pi, would anything besides a 1:1 ratio distort it?
dunno, gonna make my morning coffee run.

texture dimensions have to be a power of 2 to run the fastest
