I love the game. Been a long fan of the series since the first.
Now, I don't know about the rest of you guys, but just after I've razed through the defenses of an enemy system, I like to flip to cinematic (with the icons and such off) and just sort of watch the bombs litter in and dot the planet with little explosions. There is always just one little thing that kinda irks me and somewhat spoils the feel, though.
The little explosions seem to just...Gloss over the rotation of the planet. I don't know if this is possible to add in the engine or mod, but would it be possible to have the explosions track along the planet's surface? So it looks like they are hitting the planet instead of some glass shell covering it.
