With the release of TGEA 1.8.2 I was happy that the atlas rendering problems I had run into were apparently fixed. Boy was I wrong. I should have known after I diffed the source with 1.8.1 and found virtually no changes to the atlas code. I assumed it was a dependent class that was causing the problem.

This is a recent test of the scout ship. I also took a ride on some vehicles for the heck of it. Manage to get around the whole moon/asteroid a couple of times. The terrain system is coming along well I think. There is still some terrain "popping" happening every now and then but it is a simple issue to fix. The terrains texture just need to be synced a little better.

This is a small tech demo release of the spherical terrain with gravity for players and vehicles. This demo takes all the features of the FPS starter kit and replicates in on a spherical terrain with gravity set to a specific point in space not just gravity in the z-plane.
