First release. The celestial map shows the game's real rendering instead of the schematic view:
every planet filmed live by its own in-game camera — terrain, ocean, clouds, atmosphere, day/night;
buildings and conveyor belts of the other planets in the system, drawn with the game's own meshes and materials, without teleporting anyone;
real sun surfaces inside star glows;
the game's real starfield behind the map;
the game's own sun shafts, cast from the star (experimental, off by default).
Planets and suns are drawn after the Dyson sphere, so its structure no longer shows through them.
Orbits and the position marker are drawn at the same stage as the planets, right after them, so their own depth test decides: what passes behind a planet is hidden, what passes in front stays visible.
Purely visual and save-safe: nothing is changed for the player, the factories or the save file, and everything is cleaned up when the map closes.
