About this Mod
this mod fixes the static shape of the sun and moon, to have its upside of the texture always faces up when it renders in the world
it has configs too (where hard to implement)
side by side comparition:

great vanilla potentia:

if you are using this with vannila sun and moon this mod is practicaly usless, so go cheek out my axolotl sun and moon (still not on modrinth yet)
plans for the future:
- support for all 21 version
- test with sodium
