Nice work!

Were you by any chance inspired to make this because of the three body series by Cixin Liu? Or were you moreso just inspired because the simulation/math/physics are interesting?

Thanks! The Three-Body series definitely helped spark the idea, and the URL is a little nod to the books. I also took some simulation classes back in college, so the math and physics side pulled me in too. It’s crossed my mind that it could be fun to add a kind of Trisolaran mode that tracks a small planet and how habitable its position is throughout the orbits.

		It was nice of you to add that stable era to the submission URL. It was good while it lasted. Oh well, Time to DEHYDRATE

Nightfall by Asimov was a 7 bodies problem - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nightfall_(Asimov_novelette_an...

And to be fair, Liu Cixin's book is a 4 bodies problem :)

This made me irrationally annoyed, lol. But that was only the start (I've only seen the TV show though)

		Seriously there was so much wrong with that book.
