Planet viewed in non-horizons
Same planet, same position, but in Horizons

Yowser, what a difference between Horizons and Non-Horizons
- Thread starter disorganise
- Start date
Guess they don't need to make them so attractive since you can't land on them anyway.
Very big difference to be sure.

Guess you're right.....HMC's look the same

Nice bit of investigating Cmdr. I never thought to compare.

well to be fair, it was an accident. I really was seeing if non-horizons would be faster to jonk (and I think it is actually - I can hit 44 secs on a non-scoopable v a best of about 48 and a usual of about 51 in horizons since 2.2; pre 2.2 it was around 44/45). But when it loaded I was like huh? where am I? So I went back to horizons to confirm. there's some saying about small things and small minds....
I never thought of that...currently I am jonking and would really like to speed things up. Might give it a try

Wow. Such a difference. Much prefer the non-horizons one, looks more interesting and what I'd think you'd find. Oh, well.

I think the non-Horizons one looks much larger than the Horizons one, and I can tell this planet has a diameter of sub-1000 km (I.e. the exaggarated features don't look out of place). However, I also wish there would be more shiny execution to icy planets, and in 2.2 there are several nice ones.
Horizons 2.1 and 2.2 also make a big difference.
In 2.1 you had the occasional colourful landable planet, in 2.2, they're either grey for rocks, brown for the rest. All brown all the time.
System maps look boring, planets look boring, and when the Bubble dwellers were claiming that every planet looked the same, 2.2 made them right.

Forgot I was in non-horizons and bounced off the orbit drop zone
Logged back into horizons, and..
now *that* I can land on
