I believe that the current Roblox sky is a bit neglected and is in need of having some updates. I'm sure not every one will agree to this, but I think it could improve the quality of games by a milestone.

A) Adding phases of the moon. I think this is pretty strait forward. Roblox lua already has a method of getting the current phase of the moon.

B) Stars that cross the sky at night. This could be an option in Lighting whether you want it activated in you're place or not. When the sun goes down, the stars will turn in the sky.

C) More realistic looking sunset and sunrise. It looks pretty terrible right now, and I believe it could be improved.

Note: I know your all going to say "You can do this with skyboxes." I would like to inform you that I already know this. I also want you to try it if you really think it's easy and possible with skyboxes. You will notice its a large undertaking, for something that in the end wont work properly.

D) I also would like to suggest a dust partial in lighting. What I mean by this is that light will be slightly visible while its "dusty" in the air. It could be different than fog, or somehow worked into fog.

E) I think many builders would appreciate if you fixed light going through building walls. Maybe look if the voxel also has a brick within it, and all following voxels will not light up due to this fact.

I wholeheartedly support your suggestion. It would be wonderful if Roblox added everything in your post, as it would greatly improve the opportunity for realistic and/or atmospheric places.

Yes, this is a great idea. It needs to be done. Maybe even a horizon.

@OP: Oh, I fully agree. How the small, barely noticed details make the biggest impacts. You may not think you say the stars move, but your subconscious did. I repeat; I support this.
