| While just randomly looking around a distant galaxy, I came across some strange White Dwarf anomalies. (It looks pretty cool in some places though) O.o
These are two different systems, and I checked to see if this affected other White Dwarfs and it doesn't.

The white dwarfs are suppose to have disks... but they are a little weird! hmm... maybe you should check other systems. I'm not sure if all white dwarfs have disks.

| They look like they could be accretion disks, are you using 0.974?

| Indeed, those are accretion disks. I do, however, concur that the disks need a little bit of tuning; I have serious doubts that the disk abruptly goes from invisible to brilliant white except in extremely rare cases.

Very interesting accretion disks though. :|

| I also have a bug report. There's some very strange things going on with ultra-cool Y-dwarves:

| Maybe a palette error?

nah thats definitely what they look like in reality ouo
But in all seriousness, that bug looks a bit like the titan-moon-of-selena bug of a couple versions ago.
Living among the stars, I find my way. I grow in strength through knowledge of the space I occupy, until I become the ruler of my own interstellar empire of sorts. Though The world was made for the day, I was made for the night, and thus, the universe itself is within my destiny.

| Look at this it's really strange, looks exactly like those white dwarfs, but it's labeled as a brown dwarf. Also I find Y dwarfs that are like -200 F and they have scorched planets, how?! Those planets should be frozen balls.

| If they have strongly elliptical (non-circular) orbits, they may be heating up due to tidal forces. That does sound like a bug, though.
Phenomalx, check your ctrl-F4 settings window - the "Thermal Emissions Shift" slider on the bottom right. It should be at 0.000 by default.
