#Is there any way I can replace a procedural star system with a custom star system?

Just asking since I wanna do that.

deft snow
#

You should be able to

deft snow
#

If not there might be errors from imprecision/other methods needed

#

Alright

#

How far from Earth?

kind river
#

lemme check

deft snow
#

If it's nearby the local group it might be fine

#

Actually, probably

#

There might be an easier method

kind river
deft snow
#

Gotcha

kind river
#

6.39 billion light years away from Earth

#

this is the galaxy

deft snow
#

Cool

#

Three questions, does it have an asteriod belt, how many planets does it have, and what's the star's name?

kind river
#

lemme check

kind river
deft snow
#

Hmm

#

Might not work then

#

Does it have to be that star?

kind river
#

its a binary system

#

each star has like 12 planets

deft snow
#

Cool, cool

kind river
#

i dont want the asteroid belts tho

#

just the two stars orbiting each other

#

in that same place

deft snow
#

You might wanna pick another star system then, removing asteriod belts is super tedious

#

Like you would have to name and delete every individual asteroid

kind river
#

like basically i wanna copy that same proc gen system and place it again at the exact spot with just the stars themselves

deft snow
#

Hmmm

#

Can you send the star name?

kind river
#

yeah sure

#

Alright

#

I'll have access to my PC in a bit, I'll see what I can do

kind river
#

thanks

deft snow
#

You're welcome

kind river
#

@deft snow are you able to see what you can do?

deft snow
#

Working on it right now

#

Turns out the idea I thought would be easier only works for catalog stars

kind river
#

Ah ok

#

thanks man

deft snow
#

You're welcome

#

We may be running up against precision errors with the standard method, but I'll see what I can do

#

Uh oh

#

This is a test of how close I can place an object without needing to add extra digits of precision*

kind river
#

damn

#

btw i only need the stars

#

thats it

deft snow
#

Gotcha

#

I'm gonna try again, but one issue is I don't know how precise the ly to parsec conversion is in the game's code

kind river
#

ah ok

#

thanks again

deft snow
#

Of course

deft snow
kind river
deft snow
# kind river yay!

Sorry to say but due to precision errors at this distance I don't think it's possible :(

kind river
#

ok then anyways

#

imma just continue my k-type star system then

#

need help with that too

deft snow
#

You could take the star scripts and move them into the milky way

#

But gotcha

#

I'll be gone for about 5 mins so I'll answer when I'm back

#

But what do you need help with?

kind river
#

and how can i have this planet have a better looking ring system?

i wanna add some moons later on
