What about... planets?

[Neomex]

Would it be possibile to add more planets with current plugin system? Like just making a copy of mun and placing it bit futher?

So far, the issue is copying/creating new CelestialBody objects. There\'s probably an internal factory class that produces these. Reflection might give us a way, though...

I suspect they have added the planets using a tool in the Unity Editor. This means to add one, you\'ll have to add one directly to the scene and then register it appropriately with all the physics stuff and registries, and then keep it in consistant order with other celestials in those registries (as it looks like Vessels use the ID number of the body). If the order gets jumbled, all the crafts orbiting X body will have problems.

Are you sure? It looks to me like vessels hold a reference to an Orbit, which in turn has a CelestialBody. Vessels have an int for the current stage, but I don\'t see one for the planets.

It seems like adding a CelestialBody to another\'s orbitingBodies list could do the trick. I\'m just having trouble properly cloning/creating a CelestialBody.

Aren\'t Celestial bodies stored in an array rather than a list? Does it have room for more members?

You can retrieve an array, but I think that\'s a copy of the internal List (which is exposed as a field, not a property).
