Hi Bruce,
two related questions then:
1) When lights illuminate an object, the surfaces are obviously lit in a directional way. What is this if not shadows?
2) I also am working on a solar system model and would like to make the sun the light source and turn off all the other light sources. When I tried:
scene.lights=[]
lamp = local_light(pos=vector(0,0,0),
color=color.yellow)
earthorb=1.0
moonorb=0.2
sun=sphere(pos=vec(0,0,0), radius=0.1, color=color.yellow, emissive=True)
earth=sphere(pos=vec(earthorb,0,0), radius=0.05, color=color.green)
moon=sphere(pos=vec(earthorb+moonorb,0,0), radius=0.01, color=color.white)
Any guidance much appreciated!
