i [Feature] Disable visible planets

a month ago

Hi! I'm one of the developers of Real Starry Universe and I'd like to know if you can implement a feature to allow us to disable certain planets and/or space-locations from being rendered? A good example of where this would be useful is any asteroid belts.

I have screenshots here: https://github.com/factorio-plexpt/real-starry-universe/issues/30

I actually quite like the asteroids showing in orbit, but I’ll look into a nice way for mods to disable specific locations from displaying a render in the next version.

(Likely it’ll also come with an override setting)

1.2.6 will allow other mods to disable specific locations from rendering their sprite by writing

vp_add_planets_to_blacklist({"vulcanus", "gleba"})

in the data-update stage. (Data stage is probably also fine, but I don't like trusting the load order.)

It's a global function so should work in any mod once loaded. Uses internal names. Let me know if something doesn't work.

Thank you.
