This was so interesting, and the result is absolutely stunning! Looking forward to the next one man.

[Jabari Nevills]

Plot twist: this guy is god and he is just uploading dev logs for the universe.

[James Lockwood]

He even sent his "Son" into the world to look at the pretty atmosphere

[scratchhelp]

@WolfPuppy maybe

[RGBatom]

I wonder if he’ll fix the bug where you take a ton of damage really slowly and out of nowhere, i think it’s called cardiac arrest although i could be wrong

[Comic Space]

@Ro Gaming can u fix the bug where if the sim is ran for super long the sun for some reason grows? its annoying for beta testers when they speed up time too much

[Wacky Animations]

it just takes a billion years for it to upload to youtube.

[Templarfreak]

"i have long since lost any faith in the code i write ..." "my favorite programming trick: calling a function that doesn't exist and worrying about it later" "that sped things up immensely, with the minor tradeoff of completely ruining everything." these feel like personal attacks

[Kevin Wu]

I use Godot and whenever I try to do the second the program freaks out and highlights the entire line bright red for me to see.

[TheGuyThatCodes]

i do the second thing alot

[Tiny Desk Engineer]

They are broad personal attacks against programmers

[MetaParalysis]

@Digital_Jedi This is calling out every programmer since the dawn of time

[Digital_Jedi]

I know right. I didn't need to be called out like this but here we are.

[Kip]

This is the fourth time I've remembered this video and looked it up again just to watch it again

[Petter Larsson]

13th for me

[Jack Price]

"my favorite programming trick: calling a function that doesn't exist and worrying about it later" You're my hero dude lmfao

[Ali Sherif]

I do that a lot, but I then forget to write the function and wonder why it is not working

[Jlewis]

@cops and govern ment are gangstalkers I haven't done the math myself, but our boy Nicolaus Copernicus did a while back, pretty cool dude.

[Jlewis]

@Reyvaldo Soetiman Dude that's such a programmer moment, relatable as heck.

[Joshua Chan]

This will be useful for js lol

[Pigman Rocker]

Actually a very legit trick to use as it helps you think in a more decoupled and abstract way and allows you to focus on 1 problem at a time.

[Amagys]

Your ability to visualize and present concepts of all kinds is actually one of your strongest points. The editing and visual elements combined with music infused with your personal touch (hand drawing explanations) is a real highlight to everything. Regardless of topic, I'm sure you could make it interesting. I just happen to love your coding adventures.

[Gg Anderson]

Me, who never coded a single code, the entire video: "Yea, I guess that makes sense".

[that's a lot]

@failtolawl ohhhohohoo, learning the language is the easy part, the tough one's are mathematics and physics, and further optimisation, as the objects in video games are not made up of atoms like real world.

[Gwenturo]

Sebastian explains things very well!

[failtolawl]

it's all logical, the issue is understanding the language itself, which can be a pain in the ass.

[Just Jory]

@Me AlsoMe Though if you want to make a game for unity I recommend just doing C# since there is also great tutorials

[Teo Bellver white]

@Me AlsoMe i recomend python for begginers

[AllTheFishAreDead]

This has to be one of the highest quality channels on youtube. All the videos are educational, inspiring, really engaging and shows a thought process of tackling nearly any problem. Absolutely love this content.

[An Open Book]

I can't wait until he eventually adds every single coding adventure into this one project. Simulating ecosystems, boids in the form of procedurally generated fish, procedurally generated animals, caves, ray tracing reflections, hydrolic erosion. The whole works. He's just gonna simulate the world at this point

[Anant Tiwari]

@EndermanNULL a minigame within the spacecraft perhaps

[A]

@EndermanNULL the game is free, provided that you beat his chess AI

[CuddlyBubbles 69]

@EndermanNULL a feature of the game just add a chess board

[EndermanNULL]

how he gonna fit chess in there

[DJ-murlock]

With that setup he could also be able to simulate death of his PC

[Chosen Van]

Others showing us how we can use Unity. Sebastian is showing us WHAT WE CAN DO with Unity. Every priceless journey starts with imagination. Absolutely wonderful! :)

To be honest, that's probably a lot closer to what happened that you might think.

[saib adam]

@AwesomeAl2.0 yes

[A. Parker]

If I was half as smart as you... I would currently feel half as dumb. That was not only an amazing tutorial, fun experiment but also shows just how good you are at math and programming and research apparently! Great video... Makes me really appreciate all these great games we have today.

[Shatabda\Roy]

@flex chil chil! All game devs know de pain. Some people has pain tolerance higher, and some people don't soo yeah!

[flex]

@Jyothish Kumar you think its that simple ? ok web developer

[Jyothish Kumar]

He is not smarter than you. How can you say that if you haven't even tried to make a game? Go Download Unity Google "how to make earth in Unity" Google "how to add lightning in Unity" And after making a game make a tutorial like this and post on YT

[Moldy Space Industries]

After spending 4 years to get my astronomy degree, I feel vindicated to hear optical depth used properly for cool reasons, and when you decided to normalize your unit system to 1 for simplicity I nearly cried

[Teddy0567]

same! god I wish I normalized my simulation of the surface of the star, I spent too much time checking the numbers with a calculator.

[Widdlyscuds]

This makes me feel like I'll never be an even decent hobby programmer.

[1Cool]

Start with small projects (like really really small and simple) and go bigger and more complex when you feel like it

[Rafał Sobczyk]

I've been programming for a living for 6 years and I feel the same

[Random Dude]

@Jakub Surmacz I mean to be fair, programming is heavily related to math

[LabGecko]

If you have the money to become a patron download his projects and look at how everything works together. This is assuming you have some knowledge of programming logic; if not, start with that. However boring the programming basics are, it pays off in spades later. If you don't have the money, pause the video when he writes code and copy that into your project. Then play with it to see what is going on.

[French Bread]

Best advice is just do it you got this

[UKLCourses]

I reaaaally like the transition from the black space sky to the atmosphere. So natural.

[Morgan Eclipse]

Next video: "I don't really like how the stars are not realistically generated so I'm writing this quick program to simulate the formation of the Universe using these papers I read about the fundamental composition of space and time."

[Lietajúce Mačiatko]

@TheDude oh I got roasted so hard omg 😣😣😣😫😭😭😭😭😭😭

[TheDude]

@Lietajúce Mačiatko Neither of you are smart.

[TheDude]

The comment above you is only at the top because Dani wrote it. Your number 1.

[Lietajúce Mačiatko]

@BlueFire Animations Dyson sphere without computing power would not be able to send any power to any planet, and would be destroyed in seconds because of asteroids

[BlueFire Animations]

@Lietajúce Mačiatko Yes, but only a Dyson sphere and nothing else would be useless.

[ScorpioHR]

Now I know how my dog felt when I tried to explain spreadsheets to him. Hey, he was really eager to find out why we couldn't play together that instance

[ScorpioHR]

@KC He had to know what was so much more fun than playing with him.

[KC]

why were you trying to teach your dog spreadsheets lmao

[Pinkajou]

That’s fantastic.

[Konrad]

He just made a planet with atmosphere and sunsets that look so amazing and real. It's awesome to have this sort of your own world, and I hope you'll add more stuff to it.

[Konstantin Tonkov]

I rewatch the videos from this series every month, because of how satisfying they are. I'm looking so much forward for you to continue this series.

[Canyon Wanderer]

I really love this journey (which I joined an bit late by the looks of it), not only from a programming perspective, which I absolutely love, but also because of how you explain the physics behind it in the clearest way possible

[Aspharon]

The most mind-blowing part about these shaders is that they look good both above- and below their "surface". This one looks great from space and from the planet surface, and the water one looks great both inside- and outside the water. Absolutely boggles my mind.

[Matthew Hubka]

@Vermilion I just make all my programs turing complete, so they can be used for all applications

[Matthew Hubka]

Pugmaster000 it could also be because the size of everything is so far off from earth

[Kalle Halvarsson]

@Masa Mainio Actually, doing things in the 1:1 physically simulated way is the easiest solution, since smarter people have already figured out the equations... the hard part is making things run well in real time. Using a sphere to calculate the ocean level is all well and good for a planet with a single ocean, but it becomes harder if you want multiple bodies of water at different altitudes.

[Matthew Hubka]

@peroh I’m sorry, if you were looking for the Cheeto eating sailor swearing rotten misogynistic assholes, you came to the wrong channel. Please leave. This channel is for the “virgins” because apparently anyone adept in their field and actually has a brain couldn’t possibly find a girlfriend

[Vlad Chira]

@Jose Vera to be fair no technique is always 100% physically based

[lilchorizo02]

this legit makes me want to jump back into game development

[Hristo Lilov]

This legit made me install unity again. Thanks i guess...

[-Vanitas]

I watch this video once a day because I can't wait for the next episode.

[Mahmoud A. Khalifa]

Same bro

[EmeraldUrsa]

The more I watch your series on making this solar system, the more I appreciate what Maxxis went through creating SPORE. That might be mostly because Spore doesn't look too far off from what you've made thus far, though with today's tech and such you'd likely be able to make something that looks a bit better. In any case, loved the video.

[Paul Witzel Narratives]

I really hope this becomes a full game, with objectives and stuff

[Call Me Tess]

"that sped things up immensely, with the minor trade-off of completely ruining everything"

[Andrew's Projects & Innovations]

@verified_tinker I was just estimating and one third just felt like an easy number to work with, rather than splitting it into 1/4 + 9/24 + 9/24 or some other ugly set of numbers. I guess 1/5 + 2/5 + 2/5 would have worked nicely but oh well... To be fair, that 1/3 also includes all the time spent devising an approach to the task/problem before I even touch the code. The point was that more time is spent making a program work as intended than writing code from scratch. My familiarity with the language used also matters. The more you use a language (in my case, C/C++), the less time you'll spend fixing syntax errors and language-specific quirks.

[Jlewis]

@verified_tinker lol

[verified_tinker]

@Andrew's Projects & Innovations One third? You must be a programming god.

[CASPERA]

When a joke ironically describes programming in general

[Thomas Gould]

@Ovr Surge So did I

[Lightning _11]

7:40 Wow, that's my favorite trick, too! When I first right my code, about 90% of the functions don't exist, that way I know what I need to do to make it work.

[CrypticSavage 04]

The fact that he can make these things make sense is astounding

[Bayre]

Wow this is incredible. I was just wondering though... I tried to use the github files from the link in a project I'm working on, and when I opened the demo scene called "solar system" there was a bug. It started running just fine but firstly, I couldn't see the spaceship as apparently part of the prefab was missing. The ship still flew around normally though. Also, when I landed on a planet and got out of the ship, it was really jittery and I could barely turn or move. I was wondering if anyone knew what to do or any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated!

[UltimateDuck97]

Wow the way you explained the colours of the atmospheres was amazing. If I was taught that in school I probably wouldn't have got it at all.

[Colin Bergmann]

This channel is so freaking inspirational. Now I want to make a game...

[Kip]

@Akira2234 The reason i'm still making games was a game jam in february, so that is absolutely true, they give you the motivation of feedback and finishing something for a minimal time investment.

[Kip]

@SD GAMER 0734 of course, you would pretty much have multiplayer, lighting, physics, etc all done for you.

[SD GAMER 0734]

@peroh yea i know that but I don't know C# I only know of python

[Red Bepis]

@Adventure Not lmao

[mane]

There are tutorials that will guide you through every single line of code, if you follow a couple of those, actually trying to understand what's going on, you'll get to a basic understanding. Then you can make your own games, eventually you'll get to this level.

[Sebastian Mestre]

If you want to avoid the hacky implementation for stars, apply a logarithm (or another better looking function) to your frame buffer as a post process filter (you will probably need to crank up the light source strength values after that). This will make it so that the not-very bright stars get faded out by the bright sky, but become visible again when the sky is dark. It's also roughly how it works in the human eye in reality. Working in linear light space, but presenting with a log-ish color transform is standard practice in physically based rendering

[Robert W]

I don't really understand what is going on but I love it. To me watching code turn into reality is fascinating. Its brilliantly edited and narrated too.

[CopyRight Strike]

I'm very new to coding, and I had always assumed game devs just stuck to pre-set skyboxes to model day and night. Now after seeing this video and after seeing the crazy amount of actual optical physics used in simulating a legit atmosphere, I have new found respect (watching the different wavelengths of light get diffracted through the atmosphere is insane). It is so cool to see how the math from my astronomy textbook is implemented in a game and how interactions of individual rays of light are modeled and rendered real time. Next thing you know he is gonna actually model the radiative/convective heat transfer of individual molecules to produce wind and natural disasters XD Great work and great videos.

[TheReallyLargeKnome]

This series never fails to leave me breathless and in awe. It's beautiful.

[Duncan]

When he accidentally makes the best lesson on why the sky is blue.

[Xavi Ondoño]

No, the explanation with the wiggly line is not correct. “Interacting” in this scenario means that the atoms are absorbing a photon, and then reemitting it. Higher frequency photons have greater energy, which makes them interact easier with more atoms. As for the sunset red shift in, it’s due to the “amount” of atmosphere the rays are traversing, when the sun is up, there’s less atmosphere between the sun. During the sunset there’s the maximum amount of atmosphere because the sun rays travel tangential to Earth. This means this effect actually happens with stars (stars near the horizon are red shifted), but the effect is very small to see with the eye, especially because this means there’s less light reaching you from that star (it’s being dispersed in the atmosphere), making stars near the horizon barely visible. The main difference is that the sun is *way* closer, so the sun illuminates the whole sky anyway. And lastly, he is programming in C#.

[Business Wolf]

yep.

[dewinchy]

it's not blue, it only seems blueish cause blue is the strongest color of em all 🙃

[thegreatestegg]

What coding language is this ?

[pop]

This comment as more likes than the dani one

[Chazzwazzler]

Whats the drawing program you use a lot in your videos? I tend to find it useful to draw what I need to get done and how I will do it before I program (or while I program) so I can get my thoughts sorted, so I think a program like what you use would be very helpful for me. Also, great video, I love your videos because they are very educational but still extremely entertaining!

[Hay_M]

I know this video is already 8 months old when I am typing this, but I want to clear up a misconception about Earth's gravity at 3:40. Atmosphere is not thinner because gravity gets that much weaker. At 200 km (125miles) high, gravity is still 94% of what you see on the surface. Gravity comes from the planet's mass and it holds its atmosphere together. What matters is the atmospheric pressure which changes with the rate of collision of the molecules, and with their force of impact.. Lower layers are more dense because of the weight of the whole atmosphere, but higher up, molecules continously escape Earth's gravity very slowly (takes billions of years). But 99% of the air can be found in the lowest, just in the first 30 kilometers (19 miles). Also worth mentioning, that not all particles are equally weighted: lighter particles, like atomic hydrogen and helium move faster and have more chance to reach escape velocity. Heavier particles, like oxygen and nitrogen move slower, they are more likely to stay. This is why gas giants with a much bigger mass can retain their thicker atmospheres: the lighter particles can't escape due to higher gravity, accordingly this is why Mars has a thinner atmosphere because Mars' mass is 15% that of Earth's.

[HalogenLightBlob]

The transition at 21:25 was a wonderful prize for reaching the end of the video.

[Hester Clapp]

This looks absolutely amazing!

[NamePointer]

So "Coding Adventure: The Universe" is slowly but surely becoming reality...

[TemmieTheCatgirlGamer]

@Scientiae Magicae which is still one of the most impressive things ive ever seen. Plus with quantum computers he could literally make a universe simulator thats at least %50 better

[The Chosen One]

No kidding. There is NO limit to how far he can take this.

[Atomizer]

I absolutely love the way you have done this series, not only is it fascinating to watch and see what you managed to achieve, but as a coder also interested in these topics, it is very valuable at pointing out various techniques used, and even explaining and visualizing them to a degree to make delving into the topics easier(plus I know what to look up in order to get full details on a topic). So, thank you for these, I look forward to seeing your future progress and see what you manage to do with it moving forwards.

[Achraf_1CY]

this guy is actually doing something i've never seen before keep up man 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[DjSadhu]

You are insanely talented sir. Physics, math, shaders, coding, and it all comes in a very smooth and entertaining package. Big fan.

[Madhops]

Now just add a quick sphere gradient of sorts to cut away the atmosphere from the characters position. That way it its not so "foggy" when walking on the planet vs looking at it from a far. Amazing stuff btw keep it up.

[Game Makers Academy]

Son: *"Mom, why's the sky blue?"* Mom: *"It was a free skybox on the asset store. Don't judge me like that"*

@ok that's how my mom explained it to me when I was 3, so shaddap.

[ok]

@The unknown ah yes because science it is because that the science of blue is blah

[The unknown]

@ok This is when we go to bio, violet may be the most common, but our eyes are less sensitive because our ancestors (blah blah blah blah blah)

[ok]

@Unknown Variable violet is the shortest wavelength tho

[Soviet Tube]

Dude your a fuckin genius

[nagualdesign]

You just need to occlude the stars with the planets, as at the moment the night side of the planets look transparent.

[ElNico56]

I love how the purple sky with green sunset that eve has in kerbal arises naturally

[Santiago Benes]

It would be interesting to see you try to make a realistic damage model for vehicles or for a person . You could add it to the space ship and make it so that it crumpled if you land to hard and it would then make it harder to control. A damage model for a person would be like where you add all of the organs inside of their body and model the bullet trajectory to see what it interacts with. It could make for something interesting where you try to model a person walking by having their bones and muscles move and interact. Then you could create a rip in their muscle or break their bone and see what happens

[okaysimon]

I just played Outer Wilds and I can't believe how accurately you've replicated the atmosphere shader! It makes me wonder how similar your code would be to the Outer Wilds shader code! I loved Outer Wilds so much!

[Sam Hogan]

Love this series! It's just incredible to see his process and everything come together so perfectly in the end

[Papanatas]

True 😊

[zachary davis]

@The Battle Engineer sad he no respond :C

[The Battle Engineer]

@Sebastian Lague um but what i want to know is how i Can play this beatiful work of art for my self because ive always enjoyed open adventure games

[Dnyaneshwar Darade]

@ChimiTrash what he can't learn if he is a KZbinr?

[4P5]

@ChimiTrash enjoying quality content? KZbinrs are humans too.

[Dheeraj C]

Your videos are so interesting, also the content you includes...it makes you a genius...more than any other developer I've ever seen

[ajayaplays]

I can see how this method of in-scattering could be more realistic, but a far easier and for more processor-friendly method would be to simply take two versions of a depth map on every frame, one that is black to white, and one that is black to whatever color you want your atmosphere to be. Then you use the black to white depth map as an alpha matte to reveal the atmosphere map. This can mimic a volumetric atmosphere at a tiny cost of processing.

[Genji]

Wow... That is what I legit said outloud when watching this. Spectacular and phenomenal job

[agustinbs]

Looking forward to the next episodes for this series!

[Parthajeet Sarmah]

Moral of the story: If you can't model great and beautiful stuff, just procedurally generate them.

[Ignas Petrauskas]

As easy, as that...

[Nathan Stoddard]

😆👌 This is great, I just finished watching the video before this one and thought... yeah, you need atmosphere! Of course the next video does exactly that! Too cool. - Love this channel. 🤘😃

[Czechoslovakia]

16:01 You literally re-made the atmosphere of Eve from KSP and I love you for that.

Its not inspired by ksp at all

[Jake Shar]

I hope your coding makes its way into vr gaming, simulation of real life physics is super potent there! Keep being an awesome creative!

[oyster catcher]

So beautiful and educational. I used to play around just like THIS working from cutting edge papers from SIGGRAPH this implementing hair shaders and fractal terrain 25 years ago when rendering took overnight! Great fun

[Casinator]

2:35 how is this synced so incredibly good...

[camellia]

he was prob listening to the music while he did it

[Aidan Lavery]

I wondered the same thing

[TheMagicat]

20:00 I love the massive RCS thrusters

[Ezequiel Ciamparella]

how would one go about increasing the thickness of the atmosphere? for example, making it dense enough so that an object in space cannot be seen from the surface

[Imię Nazwisko]

I wonder why Cyclop's atmosphere is purple. Perhaps there's some purple suspended particles floating around? Aeroplankton, perhaps?

[Jack S]

These videos are like crack to me. Amazing work, its awesome to see your passion in your work.

[EnderMega]

I like how it's entertaining and Im also learning code, math and science; nice work :D

[Ethan Ray]

“Then, to calculate the optical depth, I’ll use my favorite programming trick, which is calling a function that doesn’t exist and worrying about it later.” Made my day.

[Alice Taylor]

I absolutely love these videos! 💜

[K.]

I'd love to see how this compares to the sky and atmosphere features in Unreal 5. Obviously I don't expect it to compete with something created by a team of developers working on the biggest game engine in the world, but I'm sure it would be interesting.

[Heath Close]

I’ve never sat on my couch before and cheered out loud about code like it was a sporting event. This is brilliant. I was moved. Also had to google what a float3 was, haven’t seen that yet. The results were beautiful both visually and scientifically. An intersection of art and science. Also, you just taught me why sunsets are fiery orange. This might be the greatest coding video I’ve ever watched. Wow. Just... wow...

[Lyrous]

How do you make those math animations like at 10:17 ? Would be awesome for presentations at school!

[Stephen Elder]

I came to coding late and, ultimately, had to abandon my learning and game-devving stuff because life caught up with me. But these videos are still extremely interesting to me, so thanks for making them

[Nicolas Heringer]

I'm a physicist and this serie is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.

[Korok]

@F23A# None but if you can admire a physic simulation as a physicist is has to be great

[F23A# None]

You don't have to be physicist to admire beauty, do you? )

[MacMarc]

How good are the formulas used in this video?

[Adam Crockett]

It strikes me that your flora and thorna should have evolved to suite the wavelength of light most efficient for photosynthesis.

[Otar Kublashvili]

The atmosphere was definitely what was missing! It looks stunning! Looking forward to other things like trees and animals, good luck!

[Tem4rik]

Your Coding Adventure series is the most inspiring and impressive thing I've ever seen on KZbin! Love it! Wish you the best.

[Photon Wolfsky]

Coming back 9 months later to finally ask a question since I'm now trying to work on a planet project: I know the project is downloadable and demo-able, but I haven't tested whether it can be separated from the existing planet infrastructure you created and placed on imported planets created in Blender or any non-Unity spherical mesh? I love your procedural planets tutorials and your solar system project, but I feel it would just be more efficient for me to build procedural planets in a modeling software and just import it into Unity as a completed object rather than tamper with Unity for quality of mesh and textures, etc. Would be great if this atmosphere code could be transplanted easily.

[Aditya Vyas]

The worlds really remind me of Spore, either way, this was amazing!

[Caio Castro]

This is absolutely beautiful, both from a coding and artistic perspective. Very inspired by your work. I just started learning Unity and you are my go-to resource for almost anything. Congrats and thanks!

[no way]

Very nice! I would think that instead of having a red, a green and a blue wavelength for the light emmitted by the sun, you could have it sample a number of wavelengths set by an input into the function? Just based on a minimum, a maximum and a step - if 3 had 400, 550 and 700 nm; 5 would have 400, 475, 550, 625 and 700 nm. Each would then be scaled in intensity by both the function you already have, proportional to \lambda^{-4}; then scaled again by a function (let's call it f(lambda)) that represents the sun's emmission of each wavelength and the atmosphere of the relevant planet's absorption, then divided by the sum of f(lambda) for all wavelengths lambda included; and finally scaled by some intensity coefficient. A graph of such a function is on wikipedia, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunlight#/media/File:Solar_spectrum_en.svg; but you might chose to use a more simplified function (e.g. some form of xe^(-x), something like the grey line on the graph).

@E-Kian Media ...until we learned about quantum physics. Then Schrodinger's cat took a large sh!t on that theory

[Skipp]

And then some random flat earther tries to explain to you that the sun is just 3000 km away without having any idea about all of this science. Makes me sad

[Henri Lemoine]

@Laurin Neff Not really. There are things in quantum mechanics that show that we possibly cannot know everything about even a single particle (position vs velocity), so I doubt it about a whole universe. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the uncertainty principle, but that's my two cents.

[Abdullah Imran]

@Laurin Neff definitely, but that can be said for everything so it's not really the best way to think about it. By that logic it's possible our entire understanding of math and science is a coincidence and in reality it works differently

[Laurin Neff]

@Abdullah Imran we probably just don't fully understand that yet. I'm sure that we could calculate that too if we knew the correct formulas

[Jean-Xavier Gauthier]

As an optimization, do you think it would be possible when the camera is touching the ground to compute only the color of one pixel of a line and copy it to the rest of the line ? There is generaly no difference on the left, middle and right of the screen if the curvature is flat enough. Another point : Maybe you can reuse this algorithm to compute the color of the environment when under water?

@sebastian, I am sure down the line you plan on adding more to this series. It was quite good. I learned so much from this and it was a good intro for me to the rest of your channel. I do have a question though because I am exploring on my own now with episode 3 from github. Regarding plants and such, what do you think the best approach would be? The best thing I could think of doing is using poisson disc sampling on each triangle to place trees and such. But, something tells me that is not the best way because that seems like a lot of overhead. another approach rather than instantiating each tree was using Graphics.DrawMesh

[Jonnesty Ronicha]

I would love to play a game using this engine! Are you planning on trying to simulate ecosystems?

[absence]

I hope this channel won't die, it's the best and motivational coding channel I've found, but I fear that it may lead to financial problems

[Nat J]

What I love about this channel is the fact that we get a whole background course in real world physics before he makes anything.

[VanceDK]

Game looks really fun! I'm pretty sure you got heavy inspiration from Outer Wilds, but the game itself is still really cool with the planet generation! Keep it up (

[Pranav Badrinathan]

How do you have such beautiful presentations, like those graphs!?

[LabGecko]

Amazing work! That is a truly beautiful result. It's always nice to see coding competence coming together to become art. 21:44 You might consider adding in a mask to prevent stars showing through the dark side of the planet

[M K]

I don't usually comment, but actually this is the best video I have ever seen on youtube. Amazing job

[Christian Tavera]

Coding Adventures in 5 years: So today we will be watching our generated Alien civilizations fight against the multi-galaxy humans.

[Kurtis Gibson]

@Faizan Ahmad starlis, age of orion, star strike, space odessy ect ect

[Faizan Ahmad]

@Kurtis Gibson Aah yes, the AI simulating an advanced civilization going to war against an advanced form of humanity. Of course it has. Where again?

[Kurtis Gibson]

@Kavya i know because it's been done

[Kavya]

@Kurtis Gibson ...

[Parsa Tayebi]

Stellaris...

[Erzats Erz]

I'm always blown away at how we reached a point where we can simulate realistic physics through an interactive medium. What a time to be alive!

[Marcus Daloia]

A light customization feature that automatically matches lights with different scattering degrees, so that it was as if you were actually customizing the colors that your eyes could see, would have been interesting as well.
