    I'm not sure whether this is already implimented or not, probably is... But depending on the number of stars a planet has (if any) what would the day cycle be like for a binary, tertiary, quad or even a sextuplet system?

    I don't think the stars will be that much in Detail, but i believe reading somewhere that they've added that you can see some of the other planets in the system at night.

    Alrighty then. Oh, some scientific evidence states that Jupiter, a highly dense and helium-rich gas giant, was at one point, a potential star. The pressure at the core was, at it's infancy, almost high enough to cause core ignition, and if it had, we on earth would have two suns to look up at in the sky! Luckily that's not the case though, as it would have probably boiled the earth.

    The day and night cycle is already implemented. Not such detail I think in more than one sun. Anyway, lightning effects I saw in videos are just fantastic :)
