How would you like the feature to work?

I'd like spinny tools for sun and moon. I was unsure if I should have filed these as two separate JIRAs or one but they seem rather related...

Basically foremost, I'd like the ability to set a random omega value for the sun/moon texture. It would then rotate to whatever arbitrary speed specified by the windlight sky.

Also while we are making things spin I'd like the ability to point the top of the sun/moon texture in an arbitrary direction relative to the cardinal axis.

Why is this feature important to you? How would it benefit the community?

A spinning sun/moon can add some animation to the sky without doing real animation work outside of spinning a texture.

If you let us point them in arbitrary directions we can have the moon face its bright side towards the sun when we put lunar phases into play.

Hi Bellimora,

Thank you for your suggestion. We've reviewed your request and determined that it is not something we can tackle at this time. Please use the existing EEP functionality to simulate different sun/moon textures.

Please be assured that we truly appreciate the time you invested in creating this feature request, and have given it thoughtful consideration among our review team. This wiki outlines some of the reasoning we use to determine which requests we can, or can't, take on: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Feature_Requests

Thanks again for your interest in improving Second Life.
