Purple Nebula!

Non-Purple Nebulae

Adds a spectacular "cinematic" look to stars and nebulae.

The first OXPs to experiment with Nebulae were Tianve OXP & Diso OXP back around 2006.

To see how to tweak the Nebulae, read through the BB thread. You may also wish to look at How to tweak OXZ's

Adds more varied and detailed nebulas to the Ooniverse, settings can be altered as you wish in the planetinfo.plist, the main OZ levers being..

sky_blur_alpha The lucidity/vibrancy of the nebula parts
sky_blur_cluster_chance Chance of globbing together/overlaying with similar colouring
sky_blur_scale size, the more you increase this the more chance of lengthways stretching
sky_n_blurs the number of nebula parts with which to scatter across the sky

Also included are..

a distance modifier for the system star.. sun_distance_modifier
Star corona shimmer rate.. corona_shimmer
Star corona size.. corona_flare
Colour strength in corona.. corona_hues
Colour influence range for the stars.. sky_rgb_colors
How dark do you like your shadows? .. ambient_level
Visibility of the planetary clouds, this is currently set low as they are still appearing on the shadow side.. cloud_alpha
Density of star generation, same for every system.. sky_n_stars

Have fun! :)

Further updates to this OXP may include more and/or improved nebula textures, but as of now I consider it finished enough
