As you can see in the screenshot you can't see the rings in map view or planet studio

The first is just an aesthetic issue (it's a bit weird to know a planet has rings but don't see them in the map representation of the planet, and that also makes it harder to place custom satellites around the ring)

The second just makes it harder to adjust the ring in custom planets

    @pedro16797 We'll probably add it at some point. There seems to be a lot of interest from players to add it in Map View.

    @AndrewGarrison makes sense, what about a disc with no texture and the right dimensions? So you want to go there but you know about the ring. Hiding the ring is kind of like hiding the surface texture of the planet so people has to go there without knowing if there's water, different biomes...

    I'm changing this to a suggestion. It was intentional to leave the rings out so you couldn't see them in Map View to make it a little more meaningful to see them "in person."
    Planet studio is still in development, so we will add support for rings when Nathan gets to it. Also, custom textures.
