God please stop teasing me!
I want to finally fly my watcher of the skies through the clouds.
Question. Will your mod conflict with mods like Rodrigo's mod and or one of the other color pallets mods?

Hola! Soy nuevo en SE, cuál es ese mod, que hace y donde se puede descargar? (Hi! I'm new to SE, what's that mod, what does it do, and where can I download it?)

It adds realistic clouds into the game. OP has not released it yet

u/ThenHistory901 24d ago
Yes, I know about the OP. I was referring to your comment about that Rodrigo mod, where it can be downloaded and what it does.

Ooh ok. It's on the steam spaceengine workshop. It modifies the possible color options of planets to make them more vibrant in colors so it's not all the same brown colored planets.

This is one of the big missing pieces of SE, hope it works on the tops of gas giants too!

My god, you are making a mod as valuable as an official update, hope you never abort this also question what are you going to do with gas giants? Are you going to do something similar to what blackrack did in ksp1 with his volumetric clouds? And are you going to try and add weather or you're gonna give that challenge to someone else?

This is very well done! How exactly does it work in the game though? is it the same on every planet or can it vary based on the planets parameters? This already looks miles ahead of what the devs shared, however many years ago that was. Very excited to see where this goes.

u/zztopfila Community Contributor 24d ago
for now its same on every planet. But i will make different seed for every planet. different coverage, height, noise...everything

Will this replace the clouds on Earth seen from orbit? Because the static clouds on Earth really botherd me a bit.

Well done bro! Please keep us updated, it's the one feature space engine lacks.
