Moons and Planets

Overview

Planets are destructible and can range in size from 19km to 120km in diameter. If you have already started your world but want to add planets and moons, then planets and moons must be placed manually by the player. Moons and Planets are actually the same thing but moons tend to be much smaller and have less surface generation. Just like Asteroids they are completely stationary and will never move no matter how much force is applied. They are also not effected by gravity. If multiple planets are spawned too close together, then strange physics can occur between objects in their gravitational pull. Although, the planets will never move.

Surface and Ore Generation

Planets and moons are not procedurally generated. They are pre-loaded voxel models. When increasing a planet or moons size, it's model will stretch with it. The textures and vegetation aren't stretched, only the surface model is.
Ore generation is random. Although, not all planets and moons are considered equal.
