SCS as a company do not wish to have paid mods on this forum. While we understand that not all paid mods use the Intellectual Property of other companies/people, it is very hard to moderate what is and isn't acceptable when money is involved. There are also concerns that it could look unfavorable to potential work partners going forward if SCS allow mods that may potentially use unlicensed branding.

It all depends on where you are... Go back to school.

the only difference is between northern and southern hemisphere (rotated 180°) and this shouldnt be a problem at all for a game set entirely in the northern hemisphere

Only Northern and Southern hemisphere matter indeed, and even then the moon will go thru all 4 phases. So it still doesnt matter where you are in the end.

It litterally has nothing to do with the suns rays on earth, only about earth blocking the moon from receiving them.

It has some pictures in case you dont want to read it.

no its not, what you see is the lit surface of the moon by the sun just like the lit surface on earth, so you see "daytime" on the moon, the shadow of the earth is only "visible" during a lunare eclipse

My explination might have not been 100% right but in the end the moon on the picture from the mod is lit correctly.

Edit; my post edit crossed yours. I found the Nasa link as well. ;)

Question 3 says it indeed doesnt matter where you are. So luckily I wasnt completely wrong 🙈

On earth it indeed doesn't matter where you are. I somehow misinterpreted your post.

No worries, I wasn't fully right either.

Back on topic; new screenshots look great. After testing quite a few, this mod has the most realistic skyboxes and light for me. Keep on the great work!
