| Another suggestion for the far future :)
Following the research of Carl Rodriguez it looks like for globular clusters of around a million stars we can find between 1500 and 3000 black holes after just 10 million years. The black holes tend to sink to the core of the cluster and star a giant black hole mosh pit that can endure for quite long (scattering many black holes in the process).
They have produced a film that show the view near the core of the cluster (60 black holes in view) and how they interact. All the gravitational lensing and the beauty of the motion of stars and BH is for me mersmerizing. I hope to see this one day simulated in SpaceEngine 
Watch the simulation here: https://videos.files.wordpress.com/eIDzkCA....dvd.mp4

| SpaceEngineer, Well you do plan to implement this eventually? Correct?

Same thing applies to all these questions
Quote SpaceEngineer ( ) Anyway, I should note: as long as SE is a scientifically accurate Universe simulator, then one day it will implement ALL space objects and phenomenon that are known to modern astronomy (if this would be possible to implement on the personal computers). So you may not bother yourself with questions like "will SE one day have meteor rain implemented". I guarantee that it WILL.

I'm sure it would be :(
But I'd say, a nice place to start would be to improve the interface. Just saying.  (I posted here a while ago, how I think it should look, here: http://en.spaceengine.org/forum/8-1386-65335-16-1465153963 )

| The default keys for Sound and Music should be swapped with the Screenshot Keys. The music player would default to F11 and Sound to CTRL-F11. The screenshot keys would be F12 and CTRL-F12. This way when you take a screenshot on steam, you also get a copy in your screenshots folder. What does everyone think? Would you all rather have two different screenshot buttons or just one for the steam version?

| Why do you not change the hotkey for screenshots in Steam Overlay to F11? You can do this at any time!
Or better, why do you not make the suggestion to Steam to change the hotkey to F11, so that it better corresponds to SpaceEngine? 
Apart from the fact that there are people who do not play SpaceEngine on Steam and also have no intention to do it.
And there are people who use other programs for screenshots and video recordings.
I use MSIAfterburner, have the hotkey F11, and always make two screenshots at once, one without GUI with SpaceEngine and one with GUI with MSIAfterburner.
Don't forget to look here.

Then steam screenshot could have a slightly visible text "Saving screenshot xxx.jpg" in the middle of the screen. The same issue as with music player.

| Just an idea for gas giants: Right now they have surfaces, which is kinda strange. It would be awesome if gas giants could form as small rocky planets with insanely thick and opaque atmospheres, meaning that you cold fly inside of one and not reach a surface. I think it would be a really awesome change, and hopefully wouldn't be too hard to do.

I use Space Engine on steam as a non-steam game and I take plenty of screenshots. Non of which have the screenshot text.

I think SpaceEngineers will say, if you make two screenshots simultaneously, with one keystroke, then this line of text will appear on the second image.
Don't forget to look here.

| But it doesn't. I take all my screenshots with the F12. Steam shows no text. I'm in the Space Engine group under the same name if you wanna see them.

| Star movement in multiple-star systems and compact clusters is already there. For rotation/movement/evolution of galaxies... those are on the TODO list, but don't expect them anytime soon. They are not trivial additions.

| Quote steeljaw354 ( ) I think this game needs some sort of star movement instead of just static positions. And if possible galaxy movement.
