Okay, been playing around with the bitmap again, same issue with crashing when ever I change it to another greyscale image??? I checked the output file before and after changing galaxy_dense, crashes at line 199 column 42 when it is loading NavLights, no idea why? outpile file on map change: https:/...

Ah crust metallicity, I was using core metallicity values from Space Engine... ooops.

Also the metallicity value, is it referring to surface metallicity, total metallicity or core metallicity.

I was going through the moons on Jupiter in my Sol extended file, revising the ice cover and metalicity percentages of all the moons when I came across Aega. I can't find it online, or in Space Engine? Is it a real satellite of Jupiter or fictional?

All working smoothly, not sure if I am seeing any differences, I'll load up the official release tonight and get screenshots of both the GL 3 and GL 4 versions. For...

How did Gliese852 do that BTW, I just tried to increase the FAR_MAX to 1024, almost nailed it by changing the threshold, but caused a crash whenever I made the number smaller than 7.5 .

Well I can see why the galaxy map was removed, no point in having it if sector view is upgraded to display the whole galaxy.
