Sun keeps disappearing when trying to simulate red giant phase
I don't know what's going on, I tried validating the game's files and I'm about to uninstall and reinstall the game, I want to simulate red giant phases on stars but all they do is grow to a certain point and disappear, no more helium flash or thermal pulses like the game used to have. What happened and can I fix it?

Thank you for asking about this. We know there are some issues with our current star simulation, and we currently don't include stellar evolution. We want to fix these issues, and we would like to add in stellar evolution sometime in the future.

We have had some internal discussions about implementing these fixes. The short version is that adding stellar evolution and fixing these issues within our current star simulation system is very difficult. To implement stellar evolution in a physically accurate way would more or less mean re-writing our entire stellar simulation code right now.

We want to do this in the future, and it is on our roadmap. However, given the scope of this task, we currently do not have a timeline for implementing it.

I understand, at least I know it's being worked on and I didn't mess something up :D
