Improved procedural skybox

[Daniel L.]

The current procedural skybox is lacking structure and is actually kinda gross looking, There is no smooth transition between systems and no sign of whatever nebula's the skybox depicts? why not rather than depicting ugly fake nebula's please make real ones that you can fly through and see from far away.

I understand it took the devs a long time to make the current setup but it really needs work.

Please keep in mind the next update after the coming one is a graphical update you can see that progress here

And if you suggest something make sure its not planned already on that card thing.

its "Advanced Graphics Update"

The Advanced graphics update is about deffered lighting (on ship flashlights) not the background

Well it might include that we never know still such a suggestion isn't needed im sure the devs are well aware of graphics needing to keep up

There are usually additional little things added to each update. Then again, it is by no means guaranteed.

'Planned' does not mean 'next update'. A graphical update will happen eventually, but I wouldn't hold my breath on it happening soon. I imagine they will want to get more mechanics in place so they know what graphical features they are going to need. I just don't recall Schine giving any sort of deadline for anything.

Schema used the words 'probably' for shipyards and 'portions' for fauna. I expect to see shipyards, but I'm not holding my breath. Personally, if he waits another update to make it better and avoid major bugs I will accept that.
