Beta Advanced Sun Controls 0.1

Latitude, axial tilt, time of year and other controls

  1. SineMatic
    This mod uses latitude, axis tilt, time of year and other info to calculate Sun declination. Every change is applied in real time.

    List of controls
    1. Time (month, day, hour, minute).
    2. Latitude.
    3. Azimuth offset that lets you change the direction of north.
    4. Axial tilt.
    5. Simulation speed (hrs/s). The maximum simulation speed is 24 hours per second.

    To open the app, press T key (can be changed). I tried to make the controls intuitive, but I'm afraid they can still be overwhelming for those who are not familiar with astronomy stuff. Try simulating a polar day/night, it is mesmerizing! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight_sun

    This mod has a drawback: it breaks Time of Day value on the 'Environment' tab.

    Mod is great, but the thing that is missing from this mod is to have the ability to change longitude as well, along with DST (which I think DST is not possible to do)

    10/10 should be vanilla, but why is negative latitude is north?

      I was thinking about that too. If I made the south negative, I would have to flip the sign in the formulas...
