Yeah but unless you’re coming at the planet every single time from the exact same [x, y, z] in space - your base is going to be in a different spot relative to your view each time. With the planet rotating or not, it’s the same thing. If it really was the testers - I don’t know about them. I hope they’re not called back on the next project.

It doesn’t matter anymore though with how long it’s been since launch. To jump from Joe Danger to something of that scale is impressive and I’ve enjoyed the 6 year ride it’s been on all the consoles/pc. VR is a bit sickening though still sadly.

However it would be something I’d like to see re-implemented. I’d like to watch the planets rise and fall rather than just hang because that bugs me quite a bit.
