Problem: I want Celestia to repeatedly execute scripts automatically time and again without interaction
Thread: Invoking CEL and CELX - Scripts
Question: Is there any possibility to invoke from a CELX script other CEL or CELX scripts and put them in a loop?
(e.g.: do while true
execute script1, script2 ...
end)
Is this the right way to resolve the problem? Or should I think of controlling Celestia from OS-Scripting (e.g. Batchfile)? But then I don't know how to give back control to the Batchfile from within Celestia script.
Hope having expressed myself clearly enough.
Thanks

For half your question (how to "invoke" a CEL from CELX), see here:

wahuwa,

The following lines allow you to launch one Celx script from within another:

note: the script_filename path must refer to your celestia base folder.

I got it! It works fine!
Thanks to Fenerit and Vincent!
