- Rewrite precalc_moon_orbits.py to output orbit params as dotted keys
(orbit.semi_major_axis = ...) instead of nested tables, conforming
to TOML 1.0 spec for Python compatibility
- Add print_cpp_expected_values() helper to script output
- Add new test_moon_orbits.cpp replacing old_tests version:
* MoonData struct now carries int parent_index instead of pointer
* Eliminate opaque pointer arithmetic for parent index comparison
* Collect failures in vector during sim loops, assert once at end
(reduces assertions from 763,230 to 43 per test)
- Add test_moon_orbits.toml generated from precalc script
- Move all configs from tests/configs/ to tests/
- Rename configs to match test filenames (test_NAME.toml)
- Remove unused configs (earth_mars_simple, simple_root_transition, interplanetary_transfer)
- Combine earth_circular and mars_circular into test_orbital_period.toml
- Duplicate earth_circular.toml as test_energy.toml
- Remove invalid parent test case from test_invalid_parent_assignment.cpp
- Update all test files to reference new config paths
- Delete tests/configs/ directory
- Added orbital_mechanics module with orbital_elements_to_cartesian()
- Updated initialize_orbital_objects() to use orbital mechanics
- Added validate_initial_positions() for post-initialization checking
- Fixed test files to use global_position/global_velocity
- Updated config loader to support spacecraft altitude parameter
- Fixed orbital_mechanics.cpp velocity calculation bug (removed duplicate scaling)
- Updated Makefile to include orbital_mechanics.o in test build
- Renamed simulation.h OrbitalMetrics to OrbitalAnalysis to avoid conflict
- Added docs/parabolic_union_implementation.md for parabolic orbit support plan
Note: Test configs still need manual fix for orbit table TOML syntax
Merge spacecraft management into simulation module:
- Move Spacecraft struct from maneuver.h to spacecraft.h
- Add spacecraft array to SimulationState (spacecraft, craft_count, max_craft)
- Remove separate SpacecraftState struct and related functions
- Update create_simulation() to require max_craft parameter
- Move spacecraft update logic into update_simulation()
- Make load_spacecraft_config() internal helper, called by load_system_config()
- Update all test files to use new API with 3-parameter create_simulation()
- Handle max_craft=0 case gracefully (no spacecraft allocation)
Test results: 26/27 passing (1 pre-existing SOI test unrelated to changes)
- Created tests/test_moon_orbits.cpp with 4 test cases:
* Moon orbital stability around Earth
* Galilean moons orbital stability around Jupiter
* Titan orbital stability around Saturn
* Combined solar system parent stability
- Enhanced test_utilities.h/cpp:
* Added min_time_days field to OrbitTracker
* Added create_orbit_tracker_with_min_time() for short-period orbits
- Fixed parent indexes in tests/configs/solar_system.toml:
* Moon: parent 3 (Mars) → 2 (Earth)
* Io/Europa/Ganymede/Callisto: parent 5 (Saturn) → 4 (Jupiter)
* Titan: parent 6 (Uranus) → 5 (Saturn)
- Updated semi_major_axis for moons to actual orbital distances
Tests reveal need for hierarchical orbit physics implementation.
