Just a brief note to mark progress. I added quite a bit in the past few weeks. Replicas can now be colored and there is a nice coloring editor. I've added a new camera entry type into the level editor, so I actually have a cut scene at the start of the level now. My current task is to build the stardock that the chicago is launching from at the start of the turtorial. To do that, I need to create an asteroid object that generates a better looking asteroid then the one in the current movies. So I'm building a class that builds a procedural asteroid that we can then attach structures to. Part of the look for Ceres is that all bases, etc, are part of an asteroid, so I need to get this object in before I can build the stardock. I have another dew days of work on that. Then I'll build the stardock and post a movie of the intro scene.
