Description
This enhancement request asks for providing an option to specify additional directories storing run-specific data files.
Currently, EMTG reads data contained in universe_folder. For example, it loads all ephemerides contained in universe_folder/ephemeris_files.
It is desirable to have the capability to provide additional directories that store ephemerides or similar data.
A concrete case we have in mind is:
- User has a directory containing commonly-used spice ephemerides and ancillary data (e.g.,
de430.bsp,naif0012.tls,pck00010.tpc, and so on). These are used in nearly every run - User has a separate directory that contains problem-specific data (e.g., ephemerides for a given asteroid that is only used in one specific EMTG run)
- User is able to specify the first directory, the one containing commonly-used data, via the usual
options.universe_foldervariable; this option is seldom changed (if at all) - User is able to specify the second directory, the one containing problem-specific data, via a new option, possibly called
options.case_data_folder
