Spacecraft.SetRandomState(Array, Matrix) Method

Top 

Description

Populates the Spacecraft state using a random state from a Gaussian distribution described by the provided covariance matrix. The dimension and order of the covariance matrix is assumed to be consistent with the Spacecraft's ProcessAction settings.

 

Timing Precision Mode

This page describes functionality in millisecond timing precision mode. Millisecond timing precision mode is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. We recommend that you migrate your Mission Plans to nanosecond timing precision mode.
