Hi everyone!
Today, we are excited to present you a cool new feature that we have integrated into Empyrion: realistic day-night cycles that depend on the rotation speed of a planet. If you look at the screenshot of the planet Omicron you will notice that there is a illuminated side and a dark side.
The illuminated side is where it is currently day on the planet and the dark side is where it is night - like on a real planet! So, if you are on the dark side of the planet you can take your spaceship and fly to the other side for daylight and vice versa. In addition, the planet rotates around itself inducing a day-night cycle whose length depends on the rotation speed of the planet.
The next screenshot shows the sunset on our new snow planet.
With our day-night system you can actually chase the sunset around the planet if you fly in the direction of the sun with the appropriate speed.

We also integrated a new lava planet with unforgiving conditions. Be prepared for the challenges that wait for you!

We don't have names for the snow and lava planets yet. So please feel free to suggest names.
Thanks for reading and stay tuned for the next update

Looking amazing! Fantastic additions. This game just keeps getting better and better.
Will you implement space physics like vacuum and such? Like if you open a hatch inside spaceship and there is air inside, u will be sucked out?
And also able to take off helmet / space suit, and fill it with air so you can breath when you go out / do space walk? Small details like that would make survival even better
Yes, we will definitely implement an oxygen system which requires you to build your ships and stations airtight to preserve oxygen. A single hull breach causes the oxygen to escape into the vacuum of space.
Moreover, you will be able to take off your helmet and space suit.
