| PlutonianEmpire,
do you mean something like this?
These are textures, which I have made transparent with Photoshop.
I have tried to make procedural planets transparent, but this does not work well.
Don't forget to look here.

| JackDole, I just now tried to put a star in my script in the star folder, and then i went into my planet script in the planets folder and told the planet to revolve around the star I chose, which was Chara. My planet still did not show up in the game even after not changing anything about the planet other than the star it was orbiting (changed that to "Chara").
Ostarisk, I made my planet orbit Chara and I double checked that my sc file was in addone/catalogs/planets. However it still did not work.

| JackDole, yes that was what I was referring to thank you. I had been wondering if it could be applied to procedural worlds as well, but apparently not. Bummer 
Again, thank you. 
Edit: I just realized you used a procedural terra in the glitch screeshots. Might certain planet classes do better at being partially transparent than others, or does the bug affect all planet classes?

| TheSpaceLeviathan, there is no need for that star script. A star with that name already exists:

| Ostarisk, Earlier I was told to make the star script so I did. I deleted the star scripts and tried again right now though, but still I have had no luck.

| TheSpaceLeviathan,
That's right. If the star already exists, you do not need a script for the star.
If you create a script for the star yourself, it must look something like this.
Code
Star "My Star"
{
RA 1.563585
Dec -55.191259498886
Dist 586.479873043
Class "G0 V"
Luminosity 1.17555
MassSol 1.08533
RadSol 1.11245
Teff 6030
Age 4.9823
}
The most important in the script is the position of the star.
RA, Dec and Dist
As well as the Class.
Most of the other data I've left out is not essential. Space Engine creates it itself.
This script belongs in 'addons\catalogs\stars'!
Check the spelling of the folder names.
For the planet script, it must be 'addons\catalogs\planets'.
You can check if there are errors in your scripts by looking at the 'SE.log'. It is in the 'system' directory of Space Engine. You can also post this file here.
The image is from SE 0.971. With you it will look different.
Don't forget to look here.

| Ostarisk, I will explain to you exactly where my script is located and how I got it.
I went into the directory SpaceEngine/addons and created a folder called "catalogs" and in that folder, I created another folder called "Planets". From here, I right clicked, hovered over the "New" button and selected the option "Text Document". I then renamed this document to "MySystem.sc" and copied everything from my exported script of the planet that I selected. All I did from here was rename the planet and switch it from orbiting "RS 0-0-0-1636-21668-8-157616-2301" to "Chara".

| TheSpaceLeviathan,
that is not enough. There are only the default files. There are no addons in the section.
Post the whole file. At least the beginning of the file.
The existing addon directories are listed there.
Don't forget to look here.
