Inclination of the atmosphere

[zhar2]

Ive made this great texture for tidally locked planets, ive oriented the side towards the sun to the north pole with my intentions being to give the circular atmosphere rotation at the side towards the sun, but ive been unable to move the atmospheric north pole towards the equator.

Any help please on the ssc coding would be appriciated.

thanks in advance.

The rotation axis for the atmosphere always matches the rotation axis of the planet. You might be able to make this work by using a precessing rotation, however. Could you post the planet definition from your ssc file so I can make sure I understand what you're trying to do?
