To disable this feature, remove or comment out the call to `reset_scene()` around line 735 in the main function. -* You can provide a seed to the `generate_spaceship()` function to always generate the same spaceship. For example, `generate_spaceship('michael')`. -* The `generate_spaceship()` function takes many more parameters that affect the generation process. Try playing with them! +* The seeds used for generating random geometry and materials default to random integers, +but you can replace these with any string. Different seeds are chosen every time you create +a new spaceship, but they do not change when you edit the parameters for regenerating the +current spaceship (unless you change them). * You can replace the textures with your own ones. All textures are applied using global-space cube UVs. `hull_normal.png` is a normal map that adds extra surface "greebles". `hull_lights_diffuse.png` is an additive diffuse texture to set the color of the window lights. `hull_lights_emit.png` is an emissive texture to make the windows glow in darkness. +* Unfortunately, the emissive materials don’t look so good in the Eevee renderer. For +best results, use Cycles.
