Procedural asteroid generation?

Would you be able to post your code, very interested in how you did it.

Because the player will be able to visit hundreds, maybe thousands of asteroids, and they’re not mere scene dressing; each one will be central to a player’s game for a while. If the same two-dozen asteroids keep popping up, I think they’ll begin to notice, and it will break the illusion of there being an essentially limitless endless variety (as is the case in real life). This would be especially true if the game becomes popular and people start posting screen shots or videos.

But I may be worrying about it too much… if the procedural route doesn’t pan out, I’ll reconsider.

Here’s what I have so far:

Needs more work, obviously, but it’s a decent start.

Did you create this procedurally? If so, you mind sharing the code?
