However, when i try get MusicVolume for instance, it returns me the current value of the variable.

Re: General questions about SpaceEngine

Hi, I wanted to know how to use in a Script interger and float variables? I figured that bollean variable synthax are "Variable = True/false, but when i try to put a float or interger variable in the console, it says "unknown command". Thank you for any Help.
See in the manual https://spaceengine.org/manual/making-a ... o-scripts/ with commands "Set, SetU, SetForce". 
e.g:
Set Brightness 1.11111111111

Get Brightness
Brightness = 1.11111111111

Currently existing variables accepted by the program can be obtained by the command PrintVars from console, see Debug Commands in manual. It will write a list of variables in your se.log file.

Oh Okay, Thank you a Lot!

Congrats, you’ve discovered the ancient art of… getting a value from a variable. Next up: changing it, if the devs allow it

Hi, I was wondering if in the current state, it is possible to import a 2D image in SE as an insert? I saw it is possible to import 3D model, and Print Text, but i didn't see anything about inserting Images.

Thank a lot for any help :)

See the manual part for scenario scripts, you could try and use Waypoints. https://spaceengine.org/manual/making-a ... o-scripts/
Among the allowed shapes for waypoints, there's also "Billboard", which is a way to place a 2D image in a specific position.

Good evening guys, there’s something I really don’t understand about the lenses. I set the FOV to 90 and I’m moving quickly to the left. It should be a wide-angle view, and indeed I can see my destination at the far left of the frame.

Shouldn’t the star trails appear curved, or at least converging towards my destination? Instead, Imagethey look completely straight. Here’s a screenshot. THANKS!

I keep seeing these videos everywhere. is this atmospheric distortion from space engine or added afterwards using some other program?

In the Auto camera mode, the night time doesnt look realistic in planets with atmosphere. Why is that?
