Gravitational Radius

  • qe     21st May 2020 Member 0 Permalink

    I want to see a little sphere that shows you the radius of any objects that have gravity, that tells you in numbers and or colour. Purple is the lowest, red is the highest. Is this possible?

    I assume with the current gravitational lensing rendering in 7 display, it should be possible. I have also wanted a more intuitive way to visualize gravity in the game.

    Sphere? Gravity grid (CTRL + G) shows you the gravitational pull of gravitational elements (GPMP, etc.).

     Epic! This actually will be useful. Any chance I can see the power?

    Yes, with debug mode.

    Press CTRL + D to view, then hover over an area with newtonian gravity enabled (and a gravitational source).

    It'll show GX and GY for gravitational power in the X and Y direction.

    Technically speaking, the gravitational field from any gravity emitter extends to infinity. It just gets weaker and weaker as you move further away, so for this to work you would need to somehow specify what gravitational strength you want defined as the "limit".
