Good find! I opted for the dummy spines approach as this requires fewer changes overall. Also since we don't want any spines, we can omit the spine
value completely, which also makes radius_scale
obsolete as it won't be used in this case. Moreover, some existing spines
entries don't specify min_radius
and max_radius
, so I don't think we need those either.
Omicron Gamma's sun has spines that make it look noticeably different from vanilla, where it appeared as an orange circle with no spines like the Red Giant in Omega-11. This is because JFLP gave every sun in stararch a spines entry to suppress a warning. The spines also don't blend well with the circle texture.
Adding a custom spines entry with all the values set to 0 to sm_red_sun removes the spines and did not appear to generate any errors or graphical glitches. If that does turn out to be problematic for some reason, a spines entry with an invisible texture could also work.
This probably also affects other circle-type suns, but since they are all inside fields the spines normally never appear.
