Saturn Has No Ring

[Biggus Dickus]

Saturn has no ring in either the Solar Sytem setup nor the Planet view of Saturn. I kinda feel it should be there.

go to add, rings and click saturn rings

Saturn does not have any rings by default in order to prevent lag, particularly in the Solar System simulation.

If you had the rings for the major gas giants in the simulation the game would slow to a few minutes a second at best. There is no reason you can't add one, though I would suggest that you add it to a empty simulation since they are performance heavy

[OuijaMawl]

Well what I meant is by adding a ring system in the simulation you have added in many small objects that have to be calculated by the computer this extra weight on the system restricts you from going over a certain rate of speed. If one keeps adding objects at some point you will notice fps dropping very low and evenutally the game may crash.

What are you doing here Vlad?

[Felix Hana]

how to make the rings visible ?

[OuijaMawl]

@Hana Tendou, there are no rings attached to Saturn by default. to add them into the sim. click the planet you want to add a ring to. on the bar a the bottom of the scrren next to edit is the add button click this and then look through the options at the top of the new menu that appears, one should say "Rings" click this button a new set of objects will appear in the list, find the one that says "Saturn" and finally click the button that says "Add Ring" that appers. Then just zoom to Saturn and you should see the new ring of objects around Saturn, or any object that you add the rings to.

They should consider a less realistic, purely aesthetic, performance-non-intensive set of rings for planets if they aren't going to be present by default anyway. I'd consider that acceptable. Then we can just add the real ones manually when we want.

I agree with this. If they can somehow implement a "flat" ring where it's just an image and not made up of particles, and thus is purely for aesthetic effect, I feel it could be a major improvement for performance. Saturns rings, for example, contain millions of particles. This would be intensive to simulate normally with particles.
