| Would it be possible to create models of ships that are damaged to various degrees? I just like the idea of creating a ship graveyard around a star or planet. It might also provide some good screenshot potential.

If you mean just creating a model then yes it would be possible, you would only have to import it. If you mean SHW editor style ships you would need to export them from the editor as obj and then add the damage to them. If you mean default ships then no, as the source files have not be released.
There is another issue with doing this. If you have dozens of ships spawned then performance will suffer quite a bit.

That's pretty much what I suspected. Thanks for answering.

| Is there like a scinematic screensaver style mod? Like the engine picking random places, making awesome planet flybys, then moving to the next star etcetera. Would be kinda cool to have such a hands free mode.

| Such a thing is impossible to create for now. In the future it may be possible.

| No, it is possible. You can make a script for autopilot. Look in the scrips folder for example. But it didn't support loops and point-by-point flybys.

But you can't create a script telling the engine to do random things, only tell it to go to specific places. He was asking about a randomized script.

| It is not so hard to add a commands like SelectRandomStar, SelectRandomPlanet and so on. But trip still will look like you are using G and C buttons only.

That would be cool 
Anyway, when I said it's impossible, I meant in the current version, not that it can't be added.

| I did a quick search for this mod and I really can't imagine that I'm the first person to ask. I may have even overlooked it slightly.
Has anyone made or are they working on and internal cockpit view for the space shuttles? That would absolutely amazing for the immersion. Especially when oculus support is integrated in the coming update.

| You can have this right now with my space shuttle addon, though the cockpit visibility is poor. The biggest problem is that the near clipping plane of the camera is relatively far away, so in order to be able to get the camera comfortably into a cockpit without clipping through geometry too severely, the craft must be scaled up by a factor of at least 20. So a 35-meter shuttle becomes 700 meters long. Not much of a problem if you're flying just that craft by itself in space, but a big problem if you want to fly close to the ground as collision detection becomes a big issue (you will collide with terrain even while hundreds of meters above it). So cockpit views won't be fully workable until the depth buffer system changes.

| Not sure if this is the right thread to be asking in, but does anyone think they can improve on the ring texture I made? I just want it looking a bit more realistic like saturn's rings while still keeping the color.
Also, could you make it have this same kind of effect Saturn has?
Texture file added below.

| iTz, bottom half of the texture is used for the backlight, like in Saturn.
