Making better asteroids

from Sins Forums

After a major hiatus I've returned to modding, and one thing is standing out and bugging me- the asteroid belt and space junk entities. They honestly look like someone just threw a few tiny textures into them at the last minute and left. Is there a way to put a _LOT_ more debris in the space junk and a lot more asteroid... er... chunks (No formal name I can think of.) In the asteroid field? I mean, the ability "Erratic Debris" only makes sense, for instance, if there's DEBRIS.

If you think the game lags now, just try adding more debris.

That's dust and stuff- will that change the actual number of asteroids? For instance, an 'asteroid belt' will have one or to chunks of something there. I want maybe... ten or so.
