Well if you don't want to build a ship and follow it to a destination, you can hold the middle mouse button to look around without changing the direction you're traveling in.

I assume that you do meet other hardware specifications, then? In that case it could work, I guess, maybe stuttering a bit... But the only way to be sure is installing the thing.

Hello again with yet another question!
Is there a way to see the composition/minerals of a of a planet?

SpaceEngine is a great (game :] ) ! I'm most of the time using the data from the randomly generated planets to play around with some physics equations.

Not yet. Currently, only atmospheres have the composition generated.

You can also copy the 'save-user.cfg' and the 'main-user.cfg'. But since there may have been changes to the 'main-def.cfg', your old 'main-user.cfg' may no longer work properly.
SE automatically patches the main-user.cfg with the new parameters added in the new version. You must copy main-def.cfg from the new version to enable this (this file contains all new parameters).

Is there a way to use the autopilot (g key) to take you to a location you have saved in your locations menu?

If you're referring to Ship navigation, right now you need to open the locations menu, click on the select button, hit Target button 2 times (t key), then you hit g key.

I have one question.
Will Spaceengine have any issues with VRGalaxies? It came up in one of my social media feeds and as soon as I looked at it reminded me of Spaceengine
Thank you.

Well I took a quick look at VRGalaxies and assuming it is the android vr app then I would say there is no need to worry they are very different to each other.

General questions about SpaceEngine

20 Jun 2017 18:12

Hello,

I was looking for older versions of Space Engine and got the basic versions (0.9.7, 0.9.6 and 0.9.5) downloaded. However, the patches to some of the older versions are no longer available unless you go to the old site. 

Well, I managed to find my way to the old site, even though the link that is supposed to get me there from the new site didn't work. I went to try and download the 0.9.6.2 patch for 0.9.6. All 3 dowload links are broken. 2 of them are no longer available, and the bottom one (narod.ru) spams me with a registration message. I would not wish to register to an unknown site to download 1 file.

Maybe add these older versions to some other cloud service for easier download?

Pacmanarea51, try the links in thread: History of SpaceEngine
...Unless you actually tried there... you're right, probably 0962 patch is no longer available from there.

General questions about SpaceEngine

23 Jun 2017 05:26

Are there any plans to improve known planets? The surfaces of mapped-out worlds like Titan and Earth are absolutely abysmal compared to the procedural terrain. I landed on the shores of Ligeia Mare and my first thought was that the terrain failed to mesh, but no, that is just how it is.

Also, will there ever be non-sea-level bodies of water? That Dead Sea (as well as the nonexistent sea in Egypt) are hard to look at.

Procedural augmentation is planned.

Yes, eventually.
