Is there a way to create space stations and surface bases?

You can use some tricks to do that, unfortunately in v. 0980 you can't assign a fixed and stable orbit. Things will change for the next version.

Hi, I'm trying to make a mod that adds galaxies, nebulae, clusters, stars and planets. But I'm having trouble creating the clusters and nebulae.

Cluster Script:

[color=#60b0d0][size=85][font=monospace]{[/font][/size][/color]

[color=#60b0d0][size=85][font=monospace]}[/font][/size][/color]

Nebula Script:

[color=#60b0d0][size=85][font=monospace]Nebula “Chara Nebula”[/font][/size][/color]
[color=#60b0d0][size=85][font=monospace]{[/font][/size][/color]

You have wrong quotes in your scripts.
You have these curved quotation marks “ , but you need the straight ones: "!
If you copy the scripts from the manual, you have to change these characters.

Cluster "NSA 1471"
{
    Galaxy  "Milky Way"
    Type    "Open"
    RA       5.78333333
    Dec      16.1166667
    Dist     1230.9
    Radius   4.68
    AbsMagn -3.6
    CenPow   0.5
    Age      760
    NStars   1500
    Color   (0.86 0.92 1.00)
}

Nebula "Chara Nebula"
{
    Galaxy  "Milky Way"
    Type    "Diffuse"
    RA       04 46 18
    Dec     -16 07 36
    Dist     520.3
    Radius   3.5
    AppMagn  5
    Quat    ( -0.3156767 -0.6193562 0.2975453 -0.6543798 )
}

Does it work if you do something like this? http://spaceengine.org/news/blog170516/
And I'm also having trouble creating a nebula, because it's invisible and always 0.06 light years from the sun no matter what I put for the distance.

Yeah, that should be how code works for the next version.

you can use https://pastebin.com/ to post your script, and give us the address of the file.

The main visual problem with this is that bases looks like coming from a game from 90’s.

Microsoft Space Simulator! Ahh the nostalgia!

JackDole obrigado pela ajuda.

HeitorBarbosa47842 · 05 May 2018 20:36

Only I'd like to put other types of clusters and nebulas.

Actually I fixed it, I had the parameter set as distance instead of dist. Thanks for your help

Hi,

Quick question, I am trying to get into 3D modeling for spaceships, and I am wondering what is the best software. I started using blendr and followed the instructions on importing ships to SE, but have failed. Any tips would be appreciated.

AlexanderCadere, Maya and 3ds Max are the ones that seem to give the best results.
