As I see it, full freedom of cam-movement and setting up only the objects
in-frame requires invert-matrix and a pov-camera something like this. Zroll is
now implemented:

camera { perspective
  location campos
  #if (0) look_at camlookat        // zroll always 0 or allow zroll
  #else
    right <cameramatrix[0],cameramatrix[1],cameramatrix[2]>*1.0
    up <cameramatrix[4],cameramatrix[5],cameramatrix[6]>*.75
    direction <cameramatrix[8],cameramatrix[9],cameramatrix[10]>*.75 //(h/w)
  #end
  angle camang
}

Enabling look_at produced the same image as not enabling (with zroll 0) in this
setup, where right is used to set angle.

Planetarium is everything you need to code (and learn if not well understood)
performance-calc'ed 3D space and not be movement limited.

One guy suggested he was unable. I dare say, no way. Here it is with lots fixed
in its third month.

Files must gathered and placed (or script-edit), this was done so I only have to
upload a 300k update, sorry. Updates likely to continue.



Some desktops that shouldn't be lossy compressed.

So THAT'S where the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm is located!

Seriously, very nice work. Congrats.

Best Regards,

Very nice, although I think two of the minor arms might be demoted by the end of
this year.
