SV Realistic Sun & Moon
- By
Changes the moon's texture, and makes both the sun and moon realistic sizes
What's new
- Earth orbital period changed from 2,304,000 ticks (96 days) to 8,761,843 ticks (365.07679 days)
- Luna orbital period changed from 192,000 ticks (8 days) synodic to 655,728 ticks (27.322 days) sidereal
- Luna phase handler period changed from 24,000 ticks (1 day) per phase to 88,598 ticks (3.6916 days) per phase
The goal of this update was to make the orbital periods of the Earth and Moon realistic. While not perfectly accurate, the above numbers are much closer to reality without causing large amounts of phase drift (phase drift is when the phase of the moon doesn't line up with where it is in the sky). There is some amount of phase drift, but it is minimal.
