A little animation
We made a break in working on combat. All work and no play makes your average Kodai a dull alien, as they say. To make the world a little more lively Fireheat has introduced more animations to navigation view. Below, a rotating planet and spacecraft floating in space.
Pirates can now roam the space. For this demonstration the rate has been artificially cranked up. Typically they would not be so hyperactive.
There is also a proof of concept for animating nebulae but currently this has been shelved because our tiles are composite layers rolled into single background image. This is great for efficiently loading navigation viewport but limits operations we can do on separate layers. It should not be technically hard to solve the problem. Preloading assets may be the way to go here.
