    For me, this occurred with terraformed moons, though I assume the same will happen with planets (will test soon). EDIT: Tested, planets have the same issue.

    I found a planet grouping with 1 actual planet and 2 moons. I terraformed the 2 moons (one to ice, the other to dark; black and white) with the intention of making the actual planet my homeworld and having a black and white moon visible in its sky, but the moons have kept their original appearance when viewed from the planet's surface.

    It is worth noting that the moons have the correct appearance (ice and dark) when viewed from the ship (while orbiting the actual planet in the group). It may be a good idea to use the same code for that part* of the background on both the ship and the planet surface.

    * Specifically the part of the code that draws the moons and planets, not the parts that draw the sun and parallax (while on the surface) or the parts that draw the surface of the orbited planet (while on the ship)
