Returns the burn vector for the maneuver node.
referenceFrame
— The reference frame that the returned vector is in. Defaults toSpaceEx.SpaceCenter.Vessel.get_orbital_reference_frame/2
.
Returns: A vector whose direction is the direction of the maneuver node burn, and magnitude is the delta-v of the burn in meters per second.
Does not change when executing the maneuver node. See SpaceEx.SpaceCenter.Node.remaining_burn_vector/3
.
The direction of the maneuver nodes burn.
Returns: The direction as a unit vector.
referenceFrame
— The reference frame that the returned direction is in.
The delta-v of the maneuver node, in meters per second.
Does not change when executing the maneuver node. See SpaceEx.SpaceCenter.Node.get_remaining_delta_v/2
.
The magnitude of the maneuver nodes delta-v in the normal direction, in meters per second.
The orbit that results from executing the maneuver node.
The reference frame that is fixed relative to the maneuver node, and orientated with the orbital prograde/normal/radial directions of the original orbit at the maneuver node's position.
The origin is at the position of the maneuver node.
The x-axis points in the orbital anti-radial direction of the original orbit, at the position of the maneuver node.
The y-axis points in the orbital prograde direction of the original orbit, at the position of the maneuver node.
The z-axis points in the orbital normal direction of the original orbit, at the position of the maneuver node.
The magnitude of the maneuver nodes delta-v in the prograde direction, in meters per second.
The magnitude of the maneuver nodes delta-v in the radial direction, in meters per second.
The reference frame that is fixed relative to the maneuver node's burn.
The origin is at the position of the maneuver node.
The y-axis points in the direction of the burn.
The x-axis and z-axis point in arbitrary but fixed directions.
Gets the remaining delta-v of the maneuver node, in meters per second.
Changes as the node is executed. This is equivalent to the delta-v reported in-game.
The time until the maneuver node will be encountered, in seconds.
The universal time at which the maneuver will occur, in seconds.
The position vector of the maneuver node in the given reference frame.
Returns: The position as a vector.
