by adding a "break" in those loops you no longer get the minimum and therefore fair price, the calculation of "due" is also broken. These features were actually the intention of the script.

This could be fixed by giving the sun a halo that stops getting smaller after certain distance. Or just fading the star out, right now the brightness of the star pixels stays the same at all distances.
I don't really have a good grasp of this: What should the sun look like from 8 AU away? Is it appropriate to decrease the brightness at all? @Brianetta would you perhaps know :)
Radiation, including sunlight, obeys the inverse square law. The amount of radiation falling on a surface from a point light source is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. If you have two otherwise identical cameras, and one is twice as far away, it will get a quarter of the light entering its aperture. Three times as far means a ninth of the light.
Note that while this diminishes very rapidly when close to the light source, it approaches an asymptote with distance, which is why you'll never travel so far from a star that you can't see it any more.

Mesh - a 3d model produced and animated by an artist. Inclusive of all (base) textures and UV maps. Model - a mesh that has been imported to the game and given some attributes; not necessarily 'ready to use'. Object - a game object that is ready to use. May either be a single model or several 'clicked together'. To all intents and purposes an exemplar of an entity. Entity - an instance of an Object as seen by the game.
