<queqiao-> ⟨Al2Me6⟩ Bug report: (I presume this has to do […] ⮪ Poke
<queqiao-> ⟨Al2Me6⟩ Also, I wonder if it's more natural to have "Hide unpinned celestials/markers"

<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ re numbers: the font size can be increased by changing the UI or apps scale; also note that the arrow keys can be used; I found it convenient to tweak one field with the mouse while the focus is in another that I can simultaneously tweak with the arrow keys.
<queqiao-> re declutter: the performance of the markers is awful.
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ > I could see myself forgoing the slider altogether. To that end, providing some leading zeroes for the deltaV fields would improve efficiency.I think I’ll provide that as part of the « theoretical optimization » mode for looking for gravity assist sequences (maybe 5.10 digits or something).
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ leading 0s are nicer for edition, but less readable, so I’m not sure I should have them in the default mode.
<queqiao-> ⟨Butcher⟩ Can you have leading spaces which can be scrolled as though they are zeros?
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ hm. Don’t if the font has figure spaces, but that could be an idea. Don’t know whether that would be very understandable either (hover over the void, arrows appear out of nowhere and fill everything with digits when you scroll)
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ (re the 5.10 digits mode, I keep being surprised by the unreasonable effectiveness of the flight plan alluded to in https://github.com/mockingbirdnest/Principia/issues/3382#issuecomment-1175615937)
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ even though the computations are hot garbage for the given initial state past a couple of gravity assists, you can still fly those plans!
<queqiao-> ⟨Al2Me6⟩ ⟪egg⟫ re numbers: the font size can be […] ⮪ Marker declutter was always enabled
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ Hm. I guess there is a lot of solar system out there.

<queqiao-> ⟨bobboo101⟩ I wish I understood this mod
<raptop> It's just N-body and nonspherical gravity. Everything complicated is the need for accurately calculating that, having a useful UI, etc
