Hi!

I've used this app to visually doublecheck my results using a historical TLEs. It wasn't convinient as the app uses system clock via gettimeofday and does not allow to adjust this value apart from changing time in system. Would be great to have at least a command line param (for ex. --unixtime nnn) that would override the time of the start of orbit propagation...

Hi, sorry for the late answer,
Currently arftracksat is a realtime only application.
This is a feature request, to add the ability to warp the time forwards and backwards, or at the very least set it to a static time point with a cli parameter like you suggested.
But at this time I can't work on this project much, it is rather unmaintained. I have more important projects to do, but at some point in the future I might get back to this, as I planned to port it to modern OpenGL (>3.3) and make a nice Qt GUI for it.
I'm guessing some part of this uni course, could be next year, I don't really know, whenever I have time alright?
Thanks for bringing the attention to this, and I will return to this again.
