I have been thinking about this for a long time and I finally have something that could work!
From a distance we see the picture of a round planet but as soon as we enter the atmosphere this picture dissapears slowely and the disc shows itself.
The moment the round atmosphere picture dissapears the universe should not be visible anymore only atmosphere but make the planet bigger and surround it with water same color as atmosphere.
Now imagine a square with a north border a east west and south border. We do the same with the round picture that we all see from a distance.
When I cross the east border on the surface and I fly up to space I will be teleported to the east of the planet when I exit the atmosphere.
So when I approach a planet from the east when entering the atmosphere it shoult tp me to the east part of the square.
So lets say the atmosphere is the buffer to teleport while the picture seen from outerspace hides the planet from being revealed as flat.
Just make sure that when we come flying in we dont see the entire surface which is maybe hard but not impossible if we use water on planets.
When walking around and hitting the north end it should just tp me to the south end so it loops giving me the feeling the planet is round.
Please let me know your thoughts if you disagree or something. Great game so far and it has huge potential!

as it is a big part of the game that needs attention and other players insight. This is by far the best space sim I ever played and it isnt even finished. Making the planets more real is something that would make it historical... and I didnt even mention asteroid fields. Cant wait to see whats comming. Thanks for the reply.
