Is there any way to make a skybox (without clipping properties) that projects relative to each person?  That would give the illusion of "visual range".  You could simply tell the program to project a "holographic" image of the skybox a specific distance from the person's ship.

Then again, maybe that's not a good idea.

We can set a mesh to be centeredon the player's position, and turn off clipping. We then can set the size and shape of the mesh... finally, we can assign any texture we want to it....

So, yes, we could. It would be a sky box that followed the ship, in essance. I think we'll try that.

Yeah, like I said that would create a really neat illusion of "visual range"
