Is there a way to have stars in the night sky using a Cesium SunSky component in unreal engine?

Hi @BDelacroix, thank you for your patience!

CesiumSunSky actually inherits from the regular Unreal SunSky actor, so this depends on whether you can add stars to the normal Unreal SunSky.

Personally, I don’t know if this is possible, but I found [this thread](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/night-sky-atmosphere-with-stars-ue5/240826/6) on the Unreal Engine forums with some suggestions. I hope they can help!

Thanks. I was about to come to the same conclusion as I tracked down the parts of cesium sun sky. Then I put it off for a later time.  
I’ll look through that thread.
