Original title: Add Keplerian Orbital Elements to the drop down for the "Orbit" expression

Missing Orbital Elements:

  • Semi Major Axis
  • Right Ascension (I.e. longitude of the ascending node)
  • Argument of periapsis
  • True Anomaly

This way we wouldn't have to do this: https://www.simplerockets.com/Forums/View/55723/Calculating-Orbital-Parameters-With-Vizzy

Suggestion Done Fixed in 0.9.906

    It has become apparent that this would be useful not just for the current craft, but also for the current target planet or craft, or any planet or craft by id. Related: https://www.simplerockets.com/Feedback/View/92t16H/Vizzy-Access-All-Kepler-Orbit-Elements

    Thanks for the information ! I'll keep this in mind if I ever have strange results and default dropdown for planet's mass.

    @zeropol here is the bug report. The issue only occurred when adding the "mass" expression without changing the drop down after adding it to the program. I think it as likely been fixed in new versions.

    What do you mean by "the planet mass expression is broken"? I used it in Vizzy I did not see it cause problems.
    Is it an old problem now fixed ?
    Is this still a problem and why ?
