Request Comets?

[JonnyBGoode]

Is anyone doing, or can anyone do, some comets such as Halley's and Kohoutek? I know someone did a nucleus for Halley's, but there was never a tail because of the limits or Orbiter 2006... now that there is solar wind pressure and improved particle effects, are they doable now?

I dont see why they could not of just made it a spacecraft in 2006 and added the particle effects in for exaust

Any of the Halley Armada addons contain comets with particle effects. They aren't spectacular, but they're nicer than rocks flying about.

I'm wondering if there could be a way also of telling how close you were to the sun and expanding the particle output accordingly.

Well, that would be beyond me, sorry. :facepalm:
(Cursed lack of any development skill... :dry

and with a few adjustments, would be similar to a comet
