Kyrah Abattoir Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 So after playing with it some more this morning, trying to setup a custom sun & moon trajectory that is neither N<-> or E<->W is quite difficult. The sun & moon also appear to take weird "curvy" paths from one keyframe to the other rather than linearily interpolating between sky presets. No 'number' entry doesn't help a whole lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindens Rider Linden Posted April 22, 2020 Lindens Share Posted April 22, 2020 The sun and moon actually follow what is called a great circle path across the sky dome, which is the shortest distance between two points on the surface of a sphere. When projected to an observer on the ground this path can appear to be a curve. (This is actually the same reason that a plane traveling from SFO to London will go through the Arctic.)

Kyrah Abattoir Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 Any plans on actually giving us a way to plot a proper trajectory? Number entry? Cause I can't plot something straight that isn't north/south or east/west alligned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
