3. The "Supernova" Pressure Wave

Prior to v3411, supernovae were visually spectacular but mechanically simple (i.e., a flash and a shockwave). Version 3411 introduced a secondary pressure wave. When a star with sufficient mass collapses:

  1. The core rebounds (bounce).
  2. A neutrino burst occurs.
  3. The v3411 addition: The outer layers are ejected, but they are now affected by radiative cooling as they expand, changing color from blue/white to red as they cool.

The Significance of Version v3411

Why focus on v3411 specifically? Software archives and changelogs show that v3411 was released during a period of aggressive optimization. Versions immediately prior to this (v3400 series) were notorious for introducing "Heat Simulation 2.0"—a feature that calculated planetary temperature on a per-pixel basis. While beautiful, it melted CPUs. Universe Sandbox 2 v3411 — Quick Guide 3

v3411 is widely regarded by the community as the "Golden Stabilizer." Here is what this specific build brought to the table: The core rebounds (bounce)
