- new free ship - Federation corvette and new paid ship Dragon frigate with a cyborg character
- improved spaceship and character menu and fixed thrusters not showing in all menus
- tidally locked water worlds, earthlike and lava world exoplanets look different in the system view than their non-tidally locked counterparts
- small fix for some moons in our Solar System that were not visible
- added a model for Anthe, Methone and Pallene (moons of Saturn) and fixed a bug where they were hidden when zooming in
- added sounds for lights on/off, shield on, underwater (ship and player), inside lava (ship), footsteps on different types of planets, death sounds
- can now access sound menu from the flight mode settings menu and can choose which tracks to play (in a loop)
- ship moves at 1/2 speed in water and 1/4 speed in lava
- roll buttons are shown when they are pressed in ship mode
- fixed a bug where the shadow of a jovian exoplanet wasn't shown on its moon
- fixed a bug with the radius/mass not being displayed properly in the infopanel
- fixed a bug where you couldn't land on any planet after visiting a gas giant core
- fixed a bug where a blue line appeared over the horizon between the water and the sky - on earthlike planets
- fixed an old bug where the core of a gas giant (only for rogue gas giants and semi-detached disks) was disappearing when reaching a certain range with the ship
Ratings and Reviews
Really FAR OUT!
This is a super cool, new and totally interactive way to reach and learn about what is Far Away and Beyond! Great way to feel connected with the/our Universe!!
Another Request
Kinda similar but can it be so that you can also see the moon from earth in the day side? This light also make eclipses possible
Developer Response ,
Already possible
Very Exciting!
I am pleased to see an exciting 3D model of travel through our universe!...at least, close to home!😀🌎🧑🏻🚀
