SpaceEngineer, I've posted this before on the old forum, but please DON'T implement expanding supernova remnants in 0.9.8.1. There would be no point in doing this unless you can model planets being destroyed when they're hit by the shockwave, and then you'd also need to depict every stage of stellar and planetary evolution.

By following Your logic, there would not be any point releasing unfinished engine unless it is capable of simulating every aspect of real universe, including Yourself, who seems to be denying its right for gradual evolution.

Wait... When will SpaceEngine be a paid release?

I am working on multiple things simultaneously, and all this work is not in finished stage, so nothing to show.
- New classification of planets, including iron planets, carbon planets etc.
- A lot of code changes to support this classification, a work on new planet palettes/textures even not started.
- Many fixes in VR, related with coordinate system and Vive controllers rendering.
- Multiple new script commands and variables.
- Multiple optimizations in engine.
- Many bugfixes on AMD and Intel.
- New elevation maps of Pluto and Charon, released recently by NASA.
Also, integrating of new Duke's nebulae still require a lot of work, but it was delayed due to above tasks.
