I'm loading a very big heightfield (in fact, one of Valles Marineris), and I would like it to follow the planet curvature...

I thought someone mentioned this before and I don't remember a resolution.  If this is "fixed", then we would be able to make huge terrains and do planet-wraps.
So this is Disney World.  Can we live here?

Some bits and bobs
The Galileo Fallacy, 'Argumentum ad Galileus':
"They laughed at Galileo. They're laughing at me. Therefore I am the next Galileo."

Nope. Galileo was right for the simpler reason that he was right.

Oh my God!  Nikita is brilliant!  Thanks Jim.   :D

Hey, for sure that is the fastest way! Thanks for the tip!
EDIT: after reading the blog, not so simple...
