Viewing planets from space?

I saw that one of the screenshots on the official site is a view of a planet from space, with the nearby stars visible. How does one get this type of view?

  • You can assign a Blazon image to the star, which gets displayed on the star map in place of the star itself. You can also choose to display that blazon wrapped around a sphere, like a planet.

    The sample image I think you were referring to was created with this plugin:

    Though, like I said, you can also set the image manually.
  • Thanks. Is there a way to zoom in on a particular star system?
  • See the 'Solar Systems and Orbit Displays' section in the help file. I think thats what you're looking for.
