I have a question about the orbits of the planets in the system. In this addon, why do Miller's and Mann's planets seem closer to Gargantua than in the movie? Miller's
In the movie
In the addon
Mann's
In the movie
In the addon, note that Mann's is at it's furthest point in it's orbit.
Yes I also think because if we put more distant, they will be less affected by the horizon of the hole black but what is than the FOV ? I know that in Space Engine is zoom if I am not mistaken but in reality, how it works especially in this film ?
I kinda had a problem with the system being in the LMC, so I moved it somewhere into the Black Eye Galaxy. I MIGHT not make anymore edits to his system anymore, because... I think it's done! Miller
Mann
Edmund
The final changes I made: - Moved the system to the Black Eye Galaxy - Shortened Edmund's rotation period (1.0001 days -> 18 hrs) - Changed Badebec's star type (G -> K)
vv Rename "8449778" to InterstellarLoc and "8205016" to Interstellar vv
kham132, why did you put in this galaxy, I'd put the center of Andromeda because according to the book (pdf) The Science of Interstellar, it shows a picture of the center of Andromeda unless it was just to explain. Otherwise to for Badebec, I put a G class because at the end of the film, the light is almost the same as our Sun, that's why, I could be wrong. Good continuation. Edit In fact, you put that Gargantua is not the center of the galaxy ? Otherwise it is a problem, the central black hole is only 2.4*10^6 Mass Sol then than Gargantua is 1*10^8 Mass Sol, if you want to be the center, add this :
Code
CenterOf "Black Eye"
For information, Gargantua is located in the center 12.726 kal.
In fact, why you put Gargantua Wormhole between Pantagruel and Gargantuas ? That seems logical to me to place it between Gargantuas and Mann.

Note, despite the cut and paste the coordinates of the Black Eye Galaxy, it still has a distance to the center 2.040 al but there is nothing in the middle because I have defined that Gargantua is the center of the galaxy.
And please, add this line on InterstellarLoc.sc :

quarior14, thanks for the help! I did'nt put the system in Andromeda because I feel like Andromeda is a bit overused in science fiction movies, and even if it was to explain, I didn't read the book. I didn't choose to place the wormhole there, I just realized that there weren't and Wormholes in the system, so I download the ones that did and copy-pasted it. I'll try to move the place to a larger Galaxy if I can, and add the extra lines.

Hi guys, I'm new here. I had a question regarding my system? I notice my black hole does not contain any accretion disk? Could anyone help me solve that problem please? Thanks in advance!
lixforae, are you using a newer version (above 0.9.7.2)? If so, upgrade. The accretion disks are worth it (; n0b0dy, I tried it, but it seems that the only option is to either increase the radius, or decrase the mass (0.0000001 is a good number.) but it ends up becoming a black sphere. Although, it doesn't really affect the veelocity of the ship you're using, unless you're quite close to it. But if it still annoys you, you can always diable gravity in the cheats!
That is what I recall happening when trying to find a good size. Maybe SpaceEngineer can make some adjustments to wormholes so they don't have this issue.
