### Lunar Eclipse Shadows
The shadow of a lunar eclipse gradually engulfs the moon. Previously, the moon would only darken and change color to red.

### Season Mod Compatibility
If either Serene Seasons or Fabric Seasons are installed, Astrocraft will sync to their configs, so seasons can line up.

### Sunspots
Sunspots on the sun's surface are smaller and spawn in groups.

### Overlays
- Zodiacal Constellations are a different color to others.
- Added the galactic equator, and azimuthal / ecliptic grids.

### Other Stuff
- Lower mouse sensitivity when zooming in with a spyglass.
- Axial Tilt / Obliquity angle option.
- You can disable moonlight.
- Objects like nebulae or galaxies can be added using resource packs. Also added many globular clusters.
- Stars are stored in a more compact way, reducing the mod's file size.

### Bugs
- Removed the stuck comet that always shows in Live Mode.
- Fixed Lunar Eclipses almost never happening.
- Fixed lighting not being affected by rain.
