Any closer to beta 8 today? - Will it be up before the New Year over in the UK?

That looks awesome Jim, Thanks so much, Will there be an option to stop individual objects from moving or a global option to enable or disable the movement? Not that I would want to stop the animation myself but others may

Thanks

Regards,
Neil

I hadn't planned on any buttons to stop animation.

I have no experience of seeing a Sea Fan coral in the flesh, so to speak. But for something that I should imagine would be very easily moved by the slightest current, I think that is just about right. - Perhaps if there could be periods of reduced movement or calm, at random intervals, it might be even better? - Would that be possible? - Or am I Gilding the Lilly ?

I agree with that. The movement of the Sea Fan coral looks a bit too repetitive now.

It just depends on the size of the aquarium

Downloading... a nice start in the new year.
