This is a seriously awesome planet generator! However, I have one problem with it: the exported planets spin way too fast!

When exporting as a gif, I have to get to the 1000 frame count to get something that doesn't spin super fast, and even then I wish I could get it spinning slower at a nice framerate. It would be really awesome if we had the ability to export a 1/2, 1/4 or 1/8 rotation for more cinematic shots where the planet rotates slowly but not for a full cycle.

All in all though, awesome tool. So fun to mess around with, great job :)

I'm not the creator, but you could export it as a spritesheet instead and then change the animation speed as you see fit if you're using it in a game engine.

that's a good solution, but what I'm really looking for is more frames in the same rotation to get a more cinematic shot. changing the animation speed doesn't really change that as it'd make the animation choppier!

Pretty good suggestion. I just went with the assumption at first that this would only be used as a looping animation, but I guess that doesn't have to be the case. I'll see if I can make that an intuitive setting at some point.
