Bug Description

Wish list - would it be possible in future to simulate increased terminator detail at various phases of the moon rather than the current method of using the rather flat full moon image with added false shading at the terminator.

For this to work reasonably, the physical ephemeris of the moon body must be properly implemented (to make it correct), and the lunar body must be shaded with normal map or such (for the visual effect). Not a bug, but a blueprint...

This feature already was implemented in 0.11 series but temporary was removed because this feature not worked on Windows.

In the meantime (0.13) it works. We should close this wishlist item, IMHO.
