  Changes:
    - Parallax should now function correctly in multiplayer when multiple players are looking at the same planet.
    - (This was a fairly big rewrite, so there may be random crashes. I've done my best to test it, but please report any issues you find and I'll try to fix them asap.)

Version: 1.3.1
Date: 2025.01.30
  Changes:
    - Improved support with PlanetsLib, cleaner implementation. (Thanks thesixthroc!)
    - Preemptively fixed a potential crash if a moon has no starmap icon. (Might have been fine as is, but better safe than sorry)

Version: 1.3.0
Date: 2025.01.30
  Changes:
    - Nearby planets and moons are now rendered in the background of main render. Only works for moons added via PlanetsLib. (Thanks MeteorStorm/nicholasgower!)

Version: 1.2.16
Date: 2025.01.12
  Changes:
    - Fixed a crash when loading a scenario with the map editor while Editor Extensions is installed. (Added check for LuaPlayer being invalid)

Version: 1.2.12
Date: 2024.12.26
  Changes:
    - Added Russian (ru) locale. (Thanks to Astorin!)

Version: 1.2.11
Date: 2024.12.25
  Changes:
    - Mods can now set custom scales for individual planets, meaning modded planets can appear larger or smaller than others as desired.
    - Mods can also override the filepath for planet renders directly, if they don't want to change the starmap icon. (Replacing the starmap icon still works too.)
    - (It should be fairly easy to add other overrides if needed, so feel free to request anything else you might want to customize via modding.)
    - Slightly shorter console logging messages, and prevented some console warnings. (Unused mipmaps)

Version: 1.2.10
Date: 2024.12.24
  Changes:
    - Fixed an issue when space locations defined a starmap_icon_size but had no starmap_icon.
    - Removed icon fallback as it seems it may have never been working anyway. Modded planets now must define a starmap_icon to be rendered.

Version: 1.2.9
Date: 2024.12.20
  Changes:
    - Added French (fr) locale. (Thanks to Danura30082!)

Version: 1.2.8
Date: 2024.12.18
  Changes:
    - Added Polish (pl) locale. (Thanks to Grofab95!)

Version: 1.2.7
Date: 2024.12.15
  Changes:
    - Updated German (de) locale.

Version: 1.2.6
Date: 2024.12.08
  Changes:
    - Initial scale can now be configured. Setting to the same as normal planet scale will effectively disable scaling during animations.
    - Mods can now configure certian locations to not show a planet render. A new config option can override this functionality if desired.
    - Added German (de) locale. (Thanks to OC1024!)
    - (Note: This will likely be the last features update for a short while, as I will be unable to code for a few weeks starting tomorrow.)

Version: 1.2.5
Date: 2024.12.06
  Changes:
    - Probably fixed a 1.0.7 migration issue when a save has invalid LuaRenders before updating.

Version: 1.2.4
Date: 2024.12.04
  Changes:
    - Fix for planets jumping to new position when leaving orbits during arrival animation.
    - Default x position moved slightly further left to help hide known shadow issue when parallax is enabled. (Platform shadows show on planet on right side)
    - Default animation duration increased to 5s, as a few people have mentioned the default is a little fast. (Feel free to make it even longer of course)

Version: 1.2.3
Date: 2024.12.04
  Changes:
    - Added zh-CN locale. (Thanks to PlexPt!)

Version: 1.2.2
Date: 2024.12.04
  Changes:
    - Hopefully fixed invalid render crashes for good.

Version: 1.2.1
Date: 2024.12.03
  Changes:
    - Fixed a migration issue when loading a previous save with shrinking/growing planets.

Version: 1.2.0
Date: 2024.12.03
  Changes:
    - Planet arrival/departure now eases in and out, and is overall much nicer.
    - Initial distance and parallax factor default values adjusted.
    - Internal changes to render logic, should make implementing specific future features easier, and *might* even be more performant.
    - Host now has priority when parallax has multiple players looking at the same planet.
    - Multiple viewers no longer cause planets to rotate faster.

Version: 1.1.3
Date: 2024.12.03
  Changes:
    - When adding this mod to an existing save, or when regen-renders is ticked, the mod will generate planet renders for all platforms that need them. (No more manual toggling of paused state!)
    - Performance and code size improvements for planet rotation, now only rotating when players are looking. (Side effect: Planets rotate faster when multiple players are looking)
    - Default rotation speed reduced slightly. You can change it back if wanted ofc.
    - Removed optional dependencies for planet mods. (They are all supported by default now, so no need to specify them)

Version: 1.1.2
Date: 2024.12.03
  Changes:
    - Added ability to specify a planet angle, or optionally allow planet to rotate over time.
    - Added option to delete all existing planet renders, so that you can generate new ones for stationary platforms.

Version: 1.1.1
Date: 2024.12.03
  Changes:
    - Parallax can now be toggled at runtime, without restarting the game.

Version: 1.1.0
Date: 2024.12.02
  Changes:
    - Added planet parallax effect. (Can be disabled or customized in settings)
    - (Note that this is a WIP implementation. Parallax in multiplayer is functional but not great; See known issues on the mod page for more info.)

Version: 1.0.10
Date: 2024.12.01
  Changes:
    - Planet renders are now cleaned up when a platform is deleted.
    - Hopefully fixed a crash where a shrinking planet render becomes invalid. (Or is invalid and starts shrinking, couldn't reproduce.)

Version: 1.0.9
Date: 2024.12.01
  Changes:
    - Much nicer internal logic for planet animation. No change to functionality.
    - Added config options for planet position, spawn position, size and animation duration. More options coming soon. (Like non-linear animation)
    - Changed some default values for planet renders. Overall, default animation is slower, and planet is smaller than previous versions to help hide pixelation.
    - Fixed an issue where planet renders could become stuck if arriving at a planet within a few seconds of departing from the same planet.
    - Locale added, just settings for now.

Version: 1.0.8
Date: 2024.12.01
  Changes:
    - Large planet sprites now render smaller, so that they aren't massive compared to base game planets.
    - (Small sprites are unaffected currently, and will still appear smaller than base planets.)
    - Removed .git files from mod upload. Sorry about that.

Version: 1.0.7
Date: 2024.12.01
  Changes:
    - Planet icons now fetched automatically, so most planet mods should be supported now.
    - Due to new format, old planet renders are gone. Just toggle platform paused state to get a new one.

Version: 1.0.6
Date: 2024.12.01
  Changes:
    - Fixed asteroid shadows appearing on planet render. (Thanks Thaui!)
    - Quick shuffle of mod files internally, shouldn't affect anything.

Version: 1.0.5
Date: 2024.11.30
  Changes:
    - Removed 1.0 requirement for optional mods. (Some had version 0.x.x)

Version: 1.0.4
Date: 2024.11.30
  Changes:
    - Added compatibility with multiple new planet mods. (See optional dependencies)
    - Massively reduced file size, as planet graphics are now retrieved from the respective mod/base game.

Version: 1.0.3
Date: 2024.11.30
  Changes:
    - Fixed a migration issue in the previous version. (Hopefully)

Version: 1.0.2
Date: 2024.11.30
  Changes:
    - Planets now move and shrink/grow when arriving and departing orbits.
    - Planets are slightly larger now. (Earlier it got really bad with pixels. That's fixed now.)

Version: 1.0.1
Date: 2024.11.30
  Changes:
    - Planets are significantly less pixelated.

Version: 1.0.0
Date: 2024.11.30
