Main differences between V2.0.1 and V2.1

Compatibility with PATRIUS

This version is compatible with the version 4.4 of the PATRIUS library.

New Time scales

If the default mode is the same than for the previous versions, it is now possible to customize the time scales menu of the GPAbsoluteDate widget and thus to add these additional scales (available inside the PATRIUS library) as in the example below:

ts[0] = GPDateTimeScale.GMST;
ts[1] = GPDateTimeScale.GST;
ts[2] = GPDateTimeScale.TCG;
ts[3] = GPDateTimeScale.UTC;
gpDate = new GPAbsoluteDate("Date:", date0, ts);

New maneuvers trigerring criteriae

New criteriae on nodes and apsides have been added to the previous ones (relative or absolute dates and AOL)

Impulsive maneuvers with orbital parameters criteriae

Recurrent date events

It is now possible to define date (relative or absolute ones) events with a recurrence (for example each day).

New widget for numerical integrators definition

New specific widgets have been created to deal with numerical integrators as some of ones defined in PATRIUS: Runge Kutta 4, Runge Kutta 6 and Dormand Price 853

Additional validity criteria on PRS coefficients

Besides validity interval of [0,1] for each coefficient, there is an additional test on the sum of the three coefficients (absorption, specular and diffuse) that must be equal to 1.

Best management of consistency between force model and vehicle panels
