Class types in Celestia

Post #1by Cham » 12.01.2005, 05:41

What are ALL the class types ? I already know there are

Class "planet"
Class "asteroid"
Class "moon"
Class "comet"
Class "spacecraft"

But what else ? Is there a special class so an object have no label on screen, even when all labels are turned ON ?

There is also an "invisible" type of object, but this will make the object unable to be seens as the name suggests.

There's a class invisible. I think that they don't have labels.

Yes the invisible class doesn't have labels or orbits.

Is there a "ghost" class, where, as the name suggests, the object is 75% transparent? If not, it would be a great feature to add. ;)
