It might be nice to have something akin to an "official modding questions" thread, and I wouldn't mind this one becoming that, but I'm just starting and I'd rather not spam other threads with questions of what I'm doing wrong or how I can make/do something specific when it's not so obvious.

Anyway, as for my first question, why is an Earthlike planet I'm making having the aurora so close together? This is it right now:



if the code for the planet is this?;

Code


Planet    "Terra Nova/Kizo Terra/CoDE Homeworld/Duo-Terra/Earth II"
{
    ParentBody     "Kizo Duosu/Sol 2"
    Class          "Terra"

    Mass            0.882
    Radius          5830

    RotationPeriod  46.7
    RotationOffset  -75
    Precession  500000
    Obliquity       21.3
    EqAscendNode    39.1

    Albedo          0.60
    AlbedoBond      0.60
    AlbedoGeom      0.72
    Brightness      1.80

    NoLava  true
    NoRings  true
    NoCometTail    true
    
    Life
    {
  Class   "Organic"
  Type    "Multicellular"
  Biome   "Marine/Terrestrial"
    }
    
    Surface
    {
    }
    
    Atmosphere
    {
  Height      63.8  // km
  Greenhouse  80.2  // degrees K
  Pressure    1.021153985  // atm
  Model      "Earth"
  Bright      11
  Opacity     1.0
  SkyLight    3.02
  
  Composition // values in percent
  {
   N2  77.7729
   O2  20.8625
   Ne  0.9303
   H2O 0.4000
   CO2 0.0146
  }
    }

    Clouds
    {
    Coverage    0.687
    }
    
    Orbit
    {
  RefPlane       "Ecliptic"
  Period          0.467
  SemiMajorAxis   0.561
  Eccentricity    0.001844
  Inclination     0.674
  AscendingNode   347
  LongOfPericen   0
  MeanLongitude   273
    }
}



Also, is there a way to control the amount of ocean on the planet?



Living among the stars, I find my way. I grow in strength through knowledge of the space I occupy, until I become the ruler of my own interstellar empire of sorts. Though The world was made for the day, I was made for the night, and thus, the universe itself is within my destiny.

You can modify the Auroras position with "NortLat" "NortLon" and "SouthLat "SouthLon"

And yes, you can control the amount of water with the option "sea level" in Surface. happy
Sorry for my English)

It worked for the aurora but I can't seem to get the sea level to work...No matter what values I put in the code, it doesn't seem to change...

As far as I know, the parameter 'seaLevel' is obsolete, and no longer has any function.

The sea level is controlled by the 'Height' parameter in the 'Ocean' tag.

Code

    Ocean
    {
        Height          14.1095
        Hapke           0
        SpotBright      2
        SpotWidth       0.15
        DayAmbient      2
    }



Don't forget to look here.

If you open up a planet in the in-game editor, you will see a Sealevel slider. Drag the slider to the right to get a higher sea level. You can also control the amount of water coverage on a terra using the randomise Z slider. The more left the slider is, the more land there is.

However, using the randomise z tag isn't very effective for most of the time.

Thank you, this works for me.

Does anyone know why some vessel meshes disappear at different camera angles? I have two that are doing this in both cockpit and external views. Model and textures seem to be working fine otherwise.
