Hey people out there!

You see the question: Is it possible to make a pulsar in FL?

Explanation of pulsar: A pulsar is a star which expands and shrinks in a periodic time span.

If anyone has a idea how to make this, please post!

From my knowledge, a pulsar is actually a rapidly spinning nuetron star, spinning over 30000 times a second. and emitting 2 powerful beams of radiation from its poles.

The object called "neutron_star" which FL has built in looks very nice, but is there any possibility to increase the view distance of this object, so tha you could see it when you are 40 km away form it?

I think that it has something to do with Level Of Detail Ranges LODRANGES.

Oh, I also thought about it, but as I changed it, it didn't has any visible effect. I wasn't able to see it form a larger distance!
