<RD-301 worshipper> Ah so that’s why I routinely burn my retinas when trying to perform future maneuvers in systems with a lot of moons

<Spitfire> alright thanks

<Spitfire> also how do I see in how long my object's orbit will deteriorate

<Rad - LR-87 fanatic> Question: how much does Principia like having to do the calculations for several objects up to 2 light years away going significant fractions of the speed of light (25% c was highest I saw)

I'm pretty sure that even if that doesn't cause timestep problems, γ~1.033 will result in some errors in the orbit calculations. Though I suppose if you're not getting too close to a star it might not be a big deal?
<raptop>
But the biggest problem I think is that you'll get performance issues from the path length needed for a multiple lightyear trajectory?
