Subject: [PATCH 1/3] =?UTF-8?q?Add=20=F0=9F=94=AD=20Talking=20Planets=20so?=
 =?UTF-8?q?lar=20system=20demo?=
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

New demo showcasing the speak (text-to-speech) block, which was
previously unused in any demo. Features 6 spinning celestial bodies
(Sun + 5 planets) built from spheres with rotate_anim_seconds (LOOP)
animations. Clicking each planet triggers it to speak a fun fact about
itself in its own voice using different PITCH/RATE settings per planet.

Unique features demonstrated:
- speak block (TTS) with varied voice, pitch, and rate per object
- rotate_anim_seconds with LOOP=true for continuous spinning
- Dark deep-space sky and floor aesthetic
- Educational interactivity (click-to-learn)

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Improve Talking Planets demo: textures, Saturn rings, sun
 particles
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Three visual improvements to make the demo much more engaging:

1. Surface textures on all spheres so rotation is actually visible:
   - Sun: swirl.png (orange-yellow, looks like plasma)
   - Mercury: rough.png (grey, cratered surface feel)
   - Venus: swirl.png (golden, swirling cloud tops)
   - Earth: gridxy.png (blue, grid lines make spin obvious)
   - Mars: rough.png (red, rugged surface texture)
   - Jupiter/Saturn: stripes.png (tan bands, spin is very clear)
   - Jupiter also gets a slightly oblate shape (wider than tall)

2. Saturn with tilted rings using create_cylinder (height 0.12,
   diameter 4.5) + rotate_model_xyz to tilt 25° toward the viewer,
   making Saturn instantly recognisable

3. Sun fire particle effect using create_particle_effect with
   flame_texture.png, orange→red, 40 particles/sec, no gravity

Also adds Saturn speak block (deep voice, 0.7 pitch) with a fact
about its 146 moons and iconic ring system.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] Fix Saturn ring centering: adjust Y to account for
 bottom-placement rule

Flock positions objects by placing their bounding box bottom at the given Y,
not their geometric center. Saturn sphere (diameter=1.6) at Y=5 has center at
Y=5.8. Ring cylinder (height=0.12) needed Y=5.74 so its center (5.74+0.06)
also lands at Y=5.8, making the ring appear centered around Saturn's equator.
