I am working on the Celstia<->Astrosynthesis converter. When inside the Milkyway galaxy, the star cloud displayed--is this programatically done or is there some kind of control over this at the user level that I haven't discovered?
I ask because I want to know what happens if the user creates a new universe in Astrosynthesis and replaces the real universe. Will there still be a galactic central cloud displayed at some fixed location?

the cloudy galaxy shapes are produced algorithmically from the information in Celestia/data/deepsky.dsc
