This update introduces harmony patching, which is there to allow bugfixes for the plugin, that were not possible before, such as bug #26. However, this feature is completely optional. If you don't want to allow the plugin to temporarily patch SE code, don't download the 0harmony.dll file with the plugin. Otherwise, put it in the same folder as the plugin, unblock it too, and enable the new option in the global configuration file to enable patching.

New Features

  • Harmony patching to fix more complicated bugs
  • A new world option to set the maximum elevation angle above or below the system plane for planets.
  • A new world option to set the maximum size deviation for planets. This enables you to allow planets with same surface gravity, to have slightly different sizes.
  • A new option to set GPSs to PERSISTENT_HIDDEN, which allows persistent GPSs to be generated, but are hidden on the HUD by default.

Changes

  • Planets previously scaled inversely squared and not linear to their surface gravity, which is now changed. A planet with 4g gravity will now be 4 times the size of the EarthLike planet, while previously it should have only been twice the size.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed bug #26 with patching

Known Issues

  • The plugin still eats up ram, when inside asteroid fields. However, it possibly is an SE issue, since i could not identify the cause yet.
