Another simple idea

from Sins Forums
A simple idea to make the scale seem more space like: Make the atmospheres on planets smaller. if you shrink the visible atmosphere to maybe half its height right now it would make the planets seem bigger. its simple aesthetics i know. but think about it, our atmosphere is only about 10 miles high... while the earth is roughly 16,000 miles in diameter. just a though, and i know its a game. what do you think?

oh and also, another aesthetic thing. if any of you have played with the tactical grid "on" youll see that the grid spacings are different for planets/asteroids/stars. Right now it seems the squares around a star are much larger then around an asteroid or planet. this is an easy tweak to make the size scales seem more realistic. make the grid around a star seem vast compared to an asteroid field. right now it seems as though they have the same X by Y numbers for all grave wells rather then making the squares some defined "size" thus having more around a star then an asteroid. The devs could even tweak with this to not necessarily reflect any actual in game units, thus giving the visual illusion of grandeur around a star vs asteroid. again just another thought...
