Celestia v1.5.0pre2 url bug
Posted: 28.12.2006, 17:32
Some URLs don't work when barycenters are involved.
In particular, the Follow url below does not Follow the body.
With this STC file
and this SSC file
This "//Follow/body/" url
test_follow_body
goes to the body but does not Follow it: the body is not selected and goes flying off into the distance. (I don't know if the url is missing information or if it's being interpreted incorrectly.)
In particular, the Follow url below does not Follow the body.
With this STC file
