Question VY Canis Majoris

[Foofoo14]

I changed the size and mass of our sun to match Canis Majoris, but im not sure if i got the size right. How does it look so far, is it too big?

Isn't the "sun" in orbiter a 2D "sprite" (flat image that always presents itself to the camera)? So unless you change that and the color of the projected light in the sim, its always going to look like our mellow yellow class M star, no matter what you do to its mass and gravity?

our mellow yellow class M star

Class G, actually.

Yes... if Sol were class M, I'd be somewhat worried out here at 1 AU...

Class G star, class M planet (according to Star Trek)

Its class "M" on the "Oh bite me" scale.
