Planets will now cast shadows a long distance behind them both in space and on other planets, darkening skies and obscuring solar blocks.
Compatible with "Real Stars" mod.

Config Setup
This mod can be customized by making use of the Config.xml file that generates once the mod is loaded. Loading a file with this mod active creates a Config.xml file inside of the save folder (...\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Saves\<SteamId>\<SaveGameName>\Storage\3241326439.sbm_Eclipses). You can edit the values in this file to change those values in game after loading back into the save.
NOTE: * The Config.xml is currently only used to bypass a rare graphical bug with the lens flare occluder (black circle appears over planets when sun is behind them). If you are not seeing this graphical bug, then don't worry about the Config *
Try with "Real Stars" Mod!
