This is a fantastic star field display. I feel like I am on the Enterprise. Thanks for sharing.

Any chance you could add a forward-reverse variable so that if desired, the viewer could fly forward through the stars?

Hi! Thank you!

The z movment controls the depth going forward and backward. It's tricky. You can make it a fixed number -5 forward ,+5 backward.

Enjoy! :)

Could you please post the code with z changed as you suggest? I have tried changing it and the direction of the stars hasn't changed.

Thanks
