So I made the craft constantly show its coordinates on the screen, and i was about to take off, but i quickly noticed the coordinates rapidly changing even though I wasn’t moving. So i have one question:
What is the position relative to/how or why does it keep changing

@LeMagicBaguette Thanks so much! I figured out how to fix my problem and now my vizzy program somewhat works (:

If you do not edit anything about your position at all, it is a vector with the origin placed on the centre of the world whose SOI you reside in. This does not account for the rotation of your planet, so it will continually carry you around a latitudinal circle until you reach where you started.
I can’t tell you why the origin is oriented the way it is nor how to account for said orientation :( -
