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.
Hi,

it would have been very funny if the only thing they might have got right was the astronomy

Quite bad if this can't get fixed ... But okay, something else: the reflection of the stars is much too strong!

On the other hand: I'm so annoyed by all the other bugs in this game (no, it's not a sim!) that this is just a teeny tiny detail ...!

Cheers
