To get the newest version download a snapshot from the code section.

Instalation

Unpack zip file
Install python 3
Install python 3 tk

In debian this would look like:

sudo apt-get install python3
sudo apt-get install python3-tk

Run

To execute the application use:

python3 Simulation.py

(I added a shebang in the code repo so you only have to double click Simulation.py to run it if you're in linux)

Notes

  • The application starts with the planets scaled up 1000X and the sun 25X
  • To change orbit you can ajust the Continuous DeltaV, in essence fireing thrusters. In the "Show satellite data" dropdown you wil see the effects of a change in dV.
  • The menu items are not funtional jet.
  • If you click on a planet in "View Focus" the object wil stay centered.
