Unlabelled small objects

Hi everybody,


Just tested to make an invisible object w/ a small radius, turns out it's not labelled. Seems objects under 100 km radius are not labelled. Is this hard-coded or adjustable ? Or can one explicitely label an object in ssc files ?


Thanks in advance,

Which version of Celestia are you using? Versions prior to 1.2.4 had separate controls for labeling large and small objects. In 1.2.4, you might need to add a class field to the object. For example, in the entry for ISS in solarsys.ssc, you'll see the line:

Class "spacecraft"

Other classes are planet, moon, comet, and asteroid.
