Moddable solar systems

[NiChrosia]

Describe the content or mechanics you are proposing.

Make Universe#updatePlanet not modify the position of the planet, to allow custom solar systems, as well as a new variable in Planet to denote it being the root of a solar system. Universe#updateGlobal would also use Vars.content.planets().copy().filter(p -> p.isRoot).forEach(p -> updatePlanet(p));, rather than just updatePlanet(Planets.sun)

Describe how you think this content will improve the game. If you're proposing new content, mention how it may add more gameplay options or how it will fill a new niche.

It would allow modders to separate their content from vanilla's in a more distinct way.

1. • [X] I have checked the Trello to make sure my suggestion isn't planned or implemented in a development version.
2. • [X] I am familiar with all the content already in the game or have glanced at the wiki to make sure my suggestion doesn't exist in the game yet.
3. • [X] I have read README.md to make sure my idea is not listed under the "A few things you shouldn't suggest" category.

No, don't disable orbits, but allow having planets orbit other planets, including themselves if needed to be static

[NiChrosia]

I never said disable orbits

[Bottinator22]

I don't know the source code that well, but I think preventing updatePlanet from modifying the position of the planets (which is what moving is) would break orbits

[NiChrosia]

updatePlanet is only called for the sun at the moment, and not any children of it.
