Add more materials for constructing & simulating planets & atmospheres.Fundamental improvements to our planetary collision systemĬheck out our 2022 Retrospective for more on what we did last year.
Customizing the look and topography of planets and moons with a library of realistic color and height maps.Exploring constellations for 10 different cultures.Spinning up planets so fast they break apart using the new Force Spin tool.These included many new features, but some of our favorites are In 2022, we put out 9 updates for Universe Sandbox. Highlights From 2022 Demonstrating highlights from 2022, including the Force Spin tool, Settle Water button, and Auto Simulation Speed. But before we dive in, let’s recap some accomplishments from last year. Our roadmap for 2023 includes simulating the lakes of liquid methane on Titan, hot planets emitting light, and realistically colliding spacecraft and bananas. We’re working to give you more power to understand and control the complex phenomena of the universe. Blue means fewer computations, while red means more. The colors show how many times the orbit of a nebula must be computed to maintain physical accuracy. Currently, trails are only shown for some nebulae due to performance limitations. The Milky Way galaxy with a trail for every nebula in the galaxy using our upcoming physics architecture improvements.
