Is there any trailer of this version of Space Engine? Or any other video that shows all new features?

No, and there probably won't be until release.

I have a great idea! we all want a release date but the date is actually "when it is ready". a simple solution is instead of a date how about a percentage of how done .9.7.2 is? with occasional updates maybe we all can predict a possible release date ourselves. what do you think of giving us percentages of how done the next update is SpaceEngineer? Thanks! I also hope you don't have anymore major obstacles or problems with the rest of development.

SpaceEngineer himself doesn't know what will be in the release. He just add stuff and fix bugs, and then he decide to fix the bigger issues (this step take a very long time), and add a few little features. There's no plan.




Want some music of mine ? Please go here !

This is impossible. Making a program is not like building a house, you can't simply count how many bricks you have used already and divide it by the total number of bricks. Development is a highly non-linear process, it is like reading an article in Wikipedia and browsing every link to another article, and every link to another article there. You can't predict what you will do tomorrow, which bugs you discover and/or which features you will be forced to change. And how can you measure the progress? Divide the size of code in kilobytes by some desired size of code? This makes no sense.

Adiabat, good find. Somebody posted that one on the different forum a long time ago, and it seems pretty cool stuff - but as it was noted then, it has nothing to do with classic simulation. I still wish him success with his project because this also means a lot more interesting concepts afterwards.

Experiment with geometry shaders. Circles around stars, in the base plane, and lines connected them are rendered in the geometry shader using the single vertex data.

SpaceEngineer, those circles actually make the map mode look much nicer. Better than just bland dots at the tips of the lines.

It would be even nicer with those circles if they were colored to show the star class to make it easier to find a certain star type. just my opinion though.

Wow, It's like you were reading my mind - that was exactly what I was thinking, but I didn't bring it up because I felt that it may make the star browser look messy.
