Location: Hmm... I'm confused. Anybody have a starmap to the Core?

Get it here.
Basically, it shows off one of the most overlooked features of Transcendence, background plane.
Planets have random parallax planes due to use of TypCreate, and makes the game look way better.
It's very fun to have, and I really, really have to thank digdug for letting me use his planet graphics! :D
(technically, I stole this from Sandbox code so this also counts as a Sandbox teaser as well >.>)

Reuploaded at 36 downloads. Planet orbitals are back, but I had to rewrite some UNIDs.
Enjoy! ;)

Found a planet with bad image definition. Fixed. Kudos to Androgeos to finding it.

Updated due to nangua's suggestions. Hopefully fixed a rare crash bug. Works with 1.1 ;)

Reuploaded at 200 downloads. I finally figured out how to make it so that if a planet's creation leads to a crash it doesn't get spawned and prevents a crash.

Reuploaded at 279 downloads. Added the Ringed Methane giants by Keedo420 ( http://xelerus.de/index.php?s=mod&id=1264 ). Unfortunately I don't think I can add the Star Control planets without exceeding the 5 MB limit on Xelerus.

I'll tentatively work on fixing Planet Parallax on Friday so if there's any requests comment on here or on Xelerus.

Planet Parallax is updated to V2. It doesn't use TypCreate to make new planets but instead uses ObjSetProperty which means better system generation times and less gamebreaking code.

The mod, however, is otherwise functionally the same.

I might make a planet namer mod separately or include it with this mod at a later date (if digdug doesn't make one/split it off from WE that is).

"Planet namer" is not included in WE6.

Please use any part of its code for your planet parallax mod. :)
