Will there be a new skybox?asked by Lextor

And that's from Lextor?

Lextor, Lextor will there be a new skybox? Lextor there will not be a new skybox because we have procedural skies now.CH/FS: Oh! [Hands in the air]

So we're going to have a full time of day system. I'm not sure how the planets... and here's what exciting right? And here's what still need to figure out if this is a thing, if this is a thing, but it's something very cool to dream about and, I think could be doable is: and I'm sure you have the same question, if you're on a planet and that planets relation to the star, does that affect sky on the planet itself? If you're on the back side of the planet, is it night time? If you're on the side of the planet facing the star at that particular point in the orbit, is it daytime? Is the star and the position of the planet going to affect the sky and the reason that we don't want to do the sky box is we want it to be a fully... a real simulation. We want it to react as much to real life as possible and in order to do that, we didn't want to do a skybox solution.

And we do have the number to support this from the astronomers. That's one of the things that we came up with was realistic day-night cycles on planets, we know how long the solar day is, we know how fast the planet moves around the star.

Right.

we got the these numbers available we just need to ...

I think it's just a matter of tech ...

Yeah it's a matter of tech.

... and if we can write the tech and we can implement the tech and ... One thing I learned about this project is never say "never" and it's amazing what's possible.

Yeah.

So we'll see how that turns out. Alright.
