I tried to scale everything down but it didnt work... clipping still occurs.
I had everything modelled in km so the distance of the sun reached numbers of
1e9 but now that I changed everything to decameters (1decameter=10km) is still
not working. I tried also megameter (1 megameter=1000km) but still no good
results.... what else can I try? Or can it be something else what is causing the
problem?
