Just one thing that is annoying me in SH5: the orientation of the moon is totally wrong! It might be a small detail for the most of you, but for me it's a mood killer (  ). As the illuminated part of the moon logically follows the sun, it's awful seeing the upper-right (instead of the lower-right) part being enlightened in the evening ...!
Any chance you can change its orientation?

Hi.
For me, as amateur astronomer I am, it is also very very annoying. Not only shadow is incorrect, also the sim rotate the moon ,so craters are sometimes north, sometimes south... I have tryed to find some pattern so I can trick the texture, but it is not apparent one. Even worse, one night I even see the mooun raise two times !! The astronomical sistem of the sim is a bit (or a lot) bugy I think. Also, as moon texture and phase texture it is the same one, it is no way they could do it well, and it not apperar to be moddable. Moon face and phases should be different textures so phase could be rendered and rotated over moon face.
