Request Stream/Load position, attitude and time to orbiter

[mattberg]

Hello,

I'm looking for an addon, that allows setting the simulation time, position of the satellite (ECI or similiar) and it's attitude (quaternions, euler angles, etc.) via an websocket or something else.

My goal/idea is to basically have a simple replacement for STK, but only with live-streaming of a (simulated) satellite, from a websocket (or a simple CSV file).

Is there anything already written for this?

If not, into what parts should I look?

Kind regards,
Matty

I think you can look at the ScnEditor code, in the Orbitersdk folder, as that allows setting many parameters by hand... that should be a good starting point. :shrug:
