I've recently discovered Space Nerds In Space, and I'm totally impressed, but i can't shake the feeling that it wouldn't be amiss to suggest the author of SNIS take a(nother?) look at a GPL'd game called Pioneer Space Sim (http://pioneerspacesim.net)..
Both SNIS and Pioneer are GPL'd games. It seems like they should.. like.. go on a date, maybe.. at least flirt a little.
It would be a wonderful path to greatly expand the universe SNIS is shaping up to take place in, and it would certainly benefit Pioneer to have an angle on becoming an excellent multiplayer game...
anyway, i just wanted to register, and put my two cents in on it. These are both incredibly good works of space nerdery, I thoroughly enjoy both games, it'd be a shame if they didn't at least know about each other.. maybe some sexting?
Alas, i am not much of a developer myself. I have no way to assess both codebases and know how surmountable any integration might be.. For all i know, from a coding standpoint, it's a ridiculous suggestion.. It's.. just.. the conditions both games exist under.. the general rising climate of the popularity of space nerdery.. it's.. now just seems like an amazing time to suggest such.. um.. couplings..
as a space nerd reveling in this sudden outburst of awesome games (on linux, no less) out in the world, just imagine for a moment...
That was all..

I'll try the LUA scripts - but sadly I've never coded in LUA, so I don't know if I'll be able to do anything of interest...
By the way, the gas giants looks awesome with these textures and lights, great job
How to build the Debian package by yourself, short version:
- {l Code}: {l Select All Code}
sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev debhelper devscripts
cd /place/where/you/cloned/space-nerds-in-space
dpkg-buildpackage
If something is wrong (e.g. missing build dependency), look at the output of dpkg-buildpackage. If the build is successful, the .deb will be located at /place/where/you/cloned/space-nerds-in-space/../snis-version.deb
In order to get the Git commit messages into the Debian changelog (and bump versions), look at git-buildpackage and git-dch
