Jool Eclipse

[Crucior]

I have noticed that even with the size of Jool, laythe has always side night and another day, have some mod to become real?

I'm new here and I apologize for any mistake committed, I just do my record in the forum, and I'm playing with ksp 0:25 and 30 or more mods.

Bodies in KSP are set to not cast shadows. There aren't any mods that change this so far. Here's what it might look like for eclipses if they did cast shadows (screenshots from Space Engine):

The bodies do not cast shadows, but I think solar panels behave in a correct way when Kerbol is eclipted by another body. So while you don't get the realistic looks, you still get realistic behaviour.

This is on my EVE to-do list

it also has always disappointed me that kerbol bodies are unable to cast shadows, especially since kerbin gets so many solar eclipses and it would be really cool to see the ambient light drop dramatically when it happens. hoping someone (rbay) cooks up a good way to do this.

I'm already doing this for my cloud's shadows using projectors... Shouldn't be too hard to add it as an effect within my shadow projector shader.
