oapiGetPlanetTheta() returns nonzero value for Earth
The API Reference states that it must be 0.
Code:
OBJHANDLE earth = oapiGetObjectByName("Earth"); double theta = oapiGetPlanetTheta(earth) ; // theta = -0.002487...
But the API reference says:
Quote:
For Earth, this function will return 0. (The ascending node of Earth’s equatorial plane is the definition of the vernal equinox).
Other Orbiter versions may be affected as well. |

Not a Bug. That was the case before the planet precession code was implemented. It should return zero for the Earth 1.1.2000 12:00

Ok, understood. The SDK documentation still says that the rotation axis is fixed. I hereby withdraw my bug report. Thanks a lot!
