I can add information to a planet like this?
http://en.spaceengine.org/forum/21-881-2


You should be able to, yes. It's just that according to the list of known bugs, it's a little glitchy/incomplete right now.

Edit: I just tried and it looks like you aren't able to add information in the top right area like in the screenshots right now. Not sure why.

smjjames, as has been mentioned before the text editor has not been implemented yet. Also, those screenshots are from a much older build of the wiki, a lot has changed since then.

If you want to add descriptions you have to manually edit the database file with a text editor.

Oh right, hadn't checked about the text editor. I knew it hadn't been implemented yet before I went into lurking mode, but hadn't checked on whether it had been implemented or there was work being done on it.

@spacer, you can still change the name of the object, but it might not support foriegn language keyboards if you're trying to use the native language keyboard.

Hi All,

What a fantastic piece of work!

I have a small request, not for a feature just for access to two files.
I'm on a Mac at the moment and obviously can't run the executable.
I'm interested in the scripting possibilities in Space Engine. I read here somewhere that in the scripting folder there is a help text and a sample script.

Is there anyone who feels like making them available to me so I can read up?

Many thanks.

Adam

Why not simply download SE and look at those files? You don't need to be able to run the program to do that.

Anyway, they're attached.

That's very kind HarbingerDawn.

I have a little project in mind which means I need to spend time writing a scripted tour of the universe that lasts 5 hours+
This program as far as I can see is the best way to do it. It looks beautiful.
Should I go ahead with it I'll post some or all of it here for others to use.

---------------------------------------------
Here's a question I think of immediately,

Seeing that scripts are just a list of concurrent console commands and that to run a script you type "Run scriptname" in the console, would it be possible to loop scripts from within the script by adding "Run scriptname" at the end of the script?

Best Regards,

Adam

I just checked, and no it's not possible.

Ok thanks.

Where is the best place to post my scripts once they are done?

Hello all,

can anyone shed some light into the fact, that in SE, the object data of Earth shows an Axial Tilt of 18°17'21''.47 while commonly that value in the real world is given with something around 23°?
What am I missing here, is that because the axial tilt is given to a certain reference plane I haven't thought of?

Thanks for any clarification!

The tilt in SE is relative to the Earth-moon system not to the rest of the solar system.

No, axial tilt by definition is an angle between polar axis and axis of the orbit (normal to the orbital plane). It seems a bug.
