| Quote (SpaceEngineer) BSG ships will feel themselves good in their native Cyrannus system
Indeed I may be able to release today or tomorrow at this rate. These ships are porting extremely easily, just finished cloud 9.
Edit:
3 more BSG ships.

That Basestar looks spectacular, maybe my favorite model yet

| Quote (SpaceEngineer) BSG ships will feel themselves good in their native Cyrannus system
I've been doing some test ports of BSG ships myself, and thought Cyrannus would be the perfect place to test them.
But I've found that ships are not rendering in that system. I know ships stop rendering at a certain distance from a star - could the distance from the Cyrannus system's baricentre be causing that?

| Indeed that basestar look cool.
Few new tests on nebulae using "CubeMap" Method (and using DoctorOfSpace/HarbingerDawn's M16 script  )

No, they stop rendering at edge of a system, which is determined as maximum apoapsis of each body (with their hierarchy).

Ah! That explains why I had a ship be rendered even dozens of parsecs from Sol when I was flying away from it. I have an object orbiting Sol at a distance of 97 pc

I think this bug is related with this: http://en.spaceengine.org/forum/4-705-10161-16-1346392434
Only strange thing is that this time the program recognizes that the ship is in interstellar and not in intergalactic space i.e. it recognizes that the ship is inside a galaxy but it doesn't recognize that it is inside a star system:

| I just tested it, and it does appear that the ship will not become visible unless you bring it close enough to the system barycenter first.

 It must reduce performance when you inside this sphere, because all Solar system's bodies still calculates their orbital motion and lighting relationships.

Probably. You may just move entire Cyrannus system to the edge of the Galaxy to avoid this bug. Anyway I don't know real coordinates of Cyrannus, and choose them randomly

It has no performance impact that I can observe, but then I don't often visit many other systems that close to Sol.

But how can that be possible??
I mean there are dozens of system in between sol and 95pc radius?

I don't understand. If I move Cyrannus to the edge of the galaxy SE will probably think that it is outside the galaxy and not render the ship at all  . I think the problem with the Cyrannus system may be the fact that it is a muiltiple star system with very large star orbits around the barycenter because Harb said that if you put the ship very close to barycenter, SE renders it. But I may be totally wrong. SE is very puzzling with this bug  .

How can what be possible? If it's about the ship rendering, sometimes SE does things a little differently when the ship is in hyperdrive. Otherwise SpaceEngineer's explanation says it all.
As for the object, not only does it have a 97 pc orbit, but it orbits in only 1.5 seconds

| Indeed, problem with Cyrannus was due to it's huge size. SE searches for planets only within 0.001 pc radius. I've fixed this bug.
