Has anyone ever made an aracade style clone of star citizen in unity?

By the way I am a programmer and desperately need a modeler, I am hoping to impress (with my coding at least) and maybe a modeler will join me in a startup venture!

There’s “collaboration” forum for that: https://forum.unity3d.com/forums/non-commercial-collaboration.17/

@Arowx

How are you getting around the 10k units accurate physics limit, tiny planets, shifting origin, multi-camera and scales or 64 bit world transforms?

Did you see Arowx question?

@Arowx

What? I didn’t realise that lots of people get VR motion sickness easily, doesn’t seem to bother me!

LOL - you just haven’t found the right crappy VR implementation yet! Consider checking out some of the DK1-2 demo builds. Some were very rough with low framerates and very extreme movements.

LOL I even put a version of my CubeMark benchmark out for VR, it’s like floating around in a space based washing machine full of cubes, some people even said they liked it. They must have had a very high end GPU.

Why SPACE is limited in Unity:

32 bit float offers us only 7 non zero digits in a row, so we got only 20 kilometers (from -10 to +10) of space before precision drops from 1 millimeter to 1 centimeter. 20 kilometers is only 1 minute worth of jet flight (Think of Battlefield series).
1 centimeter precision is unacceptable because camera starts to shake.
(look at “1234,567” digits, they pretty much explain the situation).

64 bit would offer us 15-17 digits in a row, which is 200,000,000,000,000 kilometers with 1 millimeter positioning precision.
(123456789|10|11|12|13|14|,15|16|17)

Earth radius is 6,370 kilometers.
Maximum distance from Pluto to sun is 7,311,000,000 kilometers. And still we got 4 more digits free.
That makes me think that we live in ~128 bit world lol, since we need only ~35 digits to fully generate our universe (if you do not believe in infinity, but I do)

Conclusion:
This will allow us to procedurally generate entire Solar System in a single instance with 1 millimeter positioning precision.
DO WANT

For accurate physics and steady cameras you need to stay under 10k from origin using 32 bit transforms.

The latest version of PhysX have a move origin feature that would allow you to move in a larger 32 bit space grids (see roadmap).

You should be able to work around it with an Arcade style game e.g. old school tiling or boxing your ‘space’.

The Kerbal Space Program game wrote their own 64 bit transform and gravitational physics system to allow them to work to the scale of the solar system.

That’s awesome.

Have you seen the new and impressive Trailer for Osiris New Dawn

Osiris: New Dawn (Teaser Trailer)

Made in Unity!

According Wiki: Made by a two man team over about 5 years! Osiris: New Dawn - Wikipedia

Is there more information on that?
