Adding star names?

Post #1by Evil Dr Ganymede » 12.03.2004, 08:14

Dumb question probably, but how does one add a star name to those that show up when you activate the stars labels in the options? (ie. if you turn it on, you'll see labels pop up for Sirius, Procyon, Betelgeuse etc).

I want to add epsilon eridani and 82 eridani to those ones that show up when you do that.

In celestia.cfg:

Code: Select all

        LabelledStars
        [
        "Sol"
        "Sirius"
        "Canopus"
        "Alpha Cen"
        ...
         ]
