Solar System Project

Modifications:

• all 8 official major planets
• Jupiter's 4 primary moons
• Saturn's rings; made via particle system component. <for some unknown reason to me, Saturn's rings do not appear to display in the embeded player>
• Adjusted comet components; attempted to have collide with planets rather than pass through, but could only make them bounce off planets and one another, thereby altering their path(s).  It looked like cosmic chaos, so reverted back.
• Tried to create the asteroid belt, but could not figure it out using cloned comet spawner... new asteroids remained on tangent versus in orbit.  Then tried just creating 40 small spheres and varying their speeds, but they displayed strangely every time the asteroids overlapped which looked like the rephased so i deeted them all.  I am guessing i need to figure out how to adjust spawner to generate into an orbit, if possible?.
• Adjusted game view a zillion times and still don't necessarily like it all that much. I tried to ID the best position and settings to capture everything well.  The camera adjustments are decidedly challenging for me at this point.  Seems like I have  to change the view frequently while working which throws off my reference to the game view which confuses me.  

Thanks for viewing.
