Version 5.4.9
V5.4.9
- new character controller (if you run into steep cliffs, you will stop).This will also fix the bug with the terrain moving underneath you
- devices with high RAM will have better terrain colliders, so you should not see the character going into the ground
- improved flight mode graphics settings menu
- changed Neptune to its true color and added an explanation why it is no longer deep blue
- adjusted Titan atmosphere and colors
- can jump (affected by gravity) and swim

Galaxy Map - Stars and Planets version 5.4.6
Updated At: 2024-02-05
Changes: Feb 5, 2024
Version 5.4.6
V5.4.6
- you can now fly around stellar objects in the ship (stars, neutron stars, black holes, stellar pairs)
- fixed a bug where the search didn't work after a tidal lock planet search

Version 5.4.5
V5.4.5
- bugs fixed (time slider improved, values won't jump super high now; close button was wrongly placed when exiting the system)
- new database configuration - better classification for gas giants. All are now giant planets and only if both mass and location match like Jupiter/Neptune - they will be considered gas giants or ice giants
- planet type search improved (can now search for Super-puff, Jupiter-like and Neptune-like exoplanets)
- online database changes will be more frequent, as changes come from multiple sources (NASA/PHL/exoplanet.eu) and exoplanets might switch from gas giant to terrestrial or viceversa based on updated parameters
- more default favorites added in the Explore menu (a selection of unique worlds)
- 55 Cancri is a binary system/HR 8799 is a single star/multiple systems updated
- new search: tidal locked/non-tidal locked exoplanets
- infopanel changes: when you open the panel for Earth, you will see 2 components (Earth+Moon), same goes for all planets with satellites (Jupiter/Saturn/Uranus/Neptune now shown with all satellites). For binary pairs, the two components are shown
- fixed bug with binary pairs showing black textures at certain distances; S97 in Sagittarius A* is now a contact binary
- fixed Neptune's satellites positions
- fixed some Ice giants showing the Neptune texture (like HD 42581 b)
