Asteroid ring

  • Hi im looking all over and i cant find anything that say how you can do an asteroid field shaped like a ring.


    What i wanna do is to reproduce the solar system.
    In one of my system ive got all inner planet with the asteroid belt all around it.
    At the moment i placed multiple field around the map to emulate an asteroid ring.


    I noticed extrusion zone does it need to do what i wanna do?


    If anyone got any idea, i would apreciate it.

  • Create the field, then create an exclusion zone in the center extending out as much as you want....several Omega and Tau systems have an asteroid ring in them, and even a Sigma system iirc. Playing through the story with Crossfire atm, so can't go looking around easily. If you still need help I'll fire up FL Explorer and see what I can come up with.

  • I'm using flexplorer to do my field.


    When I'm in the link exclusion menu i chose the zone to apply to the field.


    i see an option "exclude billboards", what does it serve to?
