  FR10 Selective orbits

  FR11 Improved orbits

  FR12 Time paths

  FR13 Z-Buffered paths

  FR14 New XYZ format

 

 

The orbits paths are not Z-buffered.

Actually the orbit paths are represented without z-buffering so the images look unnatural an confusing.

 

Description:

Using z-buffering techniques to display the orbits of the bodies should allow to correct the problem showed in the following figures.

 

The final result should be like those showed in the following figures.

 

I don’t know why this feature was not yet implemented. Perhaps there are some problems related to rendering speed and efficiency
