PlateModel.AddBoxOfPlates Method

Top 

Description

Adds six plates to the Spacecraft in a cube or rectangular prism shape. The box is defined by x, y, and z dimensions in the Spacecraft body coordinate system, and centered at centerPosition. The plates will be automatically named using boxName as the prefix, and the face orientation as the suffix.

 

You must set the Spacecraft's ForceModel.SRPForceGeometry to "PlateModel" for this to have an effect.
