No worries, if I manage to fix it on my own I'll let you know. Until then I'll just manually lock and edit the code to import Axis every time.

Thanks for the help!

Hello, I would need some help. I would need assistance in removing the sky, the sun, and the moon from my dimension so that I can replace them with my own sun and moon. Essentially, I would appreciate it if you could provide me with a procedure to remove the sky, the moon, and the sun from my dimension, as well as three other procedures to add my own sky, moon, and sun. ^^

You will need to clear all objects, and render vanilla objects and custom sun and moon. However, due to the specifications of the current renderer, the number of procedures will be excessive

Sure, that works. However, without intending to boss you around, could you help me with my custom sky? I'm not quite sure how it works.

I will try to explain myself better. Essentially, what I would like to achieve is a custom daytime sky featuring a custom sun and a custom moon, as well as a custom nighttime sky.

If you need to render custom sun and moon, use the procedure template "Render a vanilla sun and moon"

Using the template, add the procedures below

"Enable blending" defines combination colors, which rendered object and background. You will need to set it to "DEFAULT"

Next, you will need to set a sun texture and, render the sun. "constant" defines whether or not a sun disappears if it rains. If it is enabled, The sun will be always rendered

After that, do the same about the moon. If "moon phase" is enabled, you will need to use a special texture as shown in the usage above
