This OXP adds some dust rings to a few planets in each galaxy. Whether those rings are traditional gas giant rings or debris rings from industry or long-past battles depends on your planet texture OXP.

24/07/2017 - Version 2.3:
- code cleanup.
- rings fade into blue when entering the atmosphere (such as when using PlanetFall).
20/07/2017 - Version 2.2:
- smaller ring bands and grains only visible at closer distance.
- improved the issues with moire pattern, in particular at lower resolutions.
20/07/2017 - Version 2.1:
- the large gaps in the rings are now randomized making each system more unique.
- the colour gradient function is also randomized for more unique rings.
- renamed the effect script.
19/07/2017 - Version 2.0:
- rings now have different relative sizes to the planet.
- they also have different radial length.
- applied a slight yellow tint.
- applied ambient light.
- shadows are darker.
- changed the spawning algorithm which, among other things, make the rings more common.
- ring now uses a colour gradient instead of a texture (which is now only used to generate noise).
Version 1.2:
- use 1.80 features, repackage.
Version 1.1:
- improved ring texture and appearance contributed by ZygoUgo.
Version 1.0:
- initial non-beta release.
Requirements
A shader-supporting graphics card is required, the more recent the better. Older shader-supporting cards may be too slow to render the rings at an adequate framerate.
