| Would it be possible to implement a feature that would allow for the switching between our calendar and an evenly-divided planet-specific calendar?
Meaning, imagine that when you would focus on a planet it would be possible to switch to a time display that would divide its orbit and days into sections (a simple input field could allow you to determine in how many parts an orbit or a rotation could be divided, months and hours, that is).
The definition of year 1 and day 1 of every planet could be procedurally generated from a perihelion or an aphelion.

| This seems so niche it would be used by barely anyone on a regular basis.

| That is true. It's in no way a priority.
