(Q1 2025)

This project was completed in 28.5 hours over the course of 3 weeks. The purpose of this project was to create a visual aid for a presentation I gave for my college Geology final.

The systems for the planet rotation and orbits is comprised through a chain of child blueprints that range from the simplicity of a celestial body rotating, to hosting an additional celestial body (such as the sun to the earth, or the earth to the moon).

To create the ability to speed up time I utilized a ‘Space Settings’ blueprint that holds a single timer, this timer is event dispatched to the varying orbit and rotations with a float multiplier that equally increases every actors speed. I found this to be much more favorable in terms of adjustment, and preventing every celestial body from running it’s own individual timer.
