Hi Steve!

Sure, changing the far plane was my first idea, but in that way
all the objects would not be culled (by the far plane) anymore!
Isn't it? So, if I have 100 spaceships around the solar system,
I should see all of them... always. I think this is not much
optimized :).

Am I wrong?

Thanks for the quick reply.
