Asteroid Factory - A cross-platform tool for procedural asteroid generation and geophysical simulation
Abstract
Asteroid Factory v1.0.1 improves the default libraries and updates radial material assignment to follow the method described in the software's published paper. Revised material properties to provide more representative starting values. Updated radial behaviour defaults for small-body interiors. Improved asteroid profiles and their composition and spatial correlation settings. Overhauled the application of radial profiles to align with the published methodology. The supplied libraries provide starting points for model generation; users should adjust them to suit their target body and modelling requirements.
