I have a question about changing the size of my brown dwarf...

now normally BD's are the size of Jupiter or smaller, and according to Celestia and the T1V setting, it gives me a .01 RSun which is the size of earth.

Now I know that BD's shrink over time, but I don't think they shrink THAT much

so in the .stc I put in radius 0.09, but it messed up my little BD and made it microscopic...lol

So is there a command like RSun where I can enter in a default stellar radius

In stc files, radius must be entered in kilometers, not solar radii as they show in the info box within Celestia.

For instance, this is a snippet of code for part of a binary system I wm working on where the white dwarf is a bit smaller than earth, or .01 Rsol.
