CoClasses that Implement IAgGroundVehicle

Example

Create a ground vehicle (on current scenario central body)
[C#]
// Create the ground vehicle
IAgGroundVehicle launchVehicle = root.CurrentScenario.Children.New(AgESTKObjectType.eGroundVehicle,  "MyGroundVehicle") as IAgGroundVehicle;
Set ground vehicle to use Great Arc propagator
[C#]
// Set ground vehicle route to great arc
groundVehicle.SetRouteType(AgEVePropagatorType.ePropagatorGreatArc);

// Retrieve propagator interface if necessary
IAgVePropagatorGreatArc propagator = groundVehicle.Route as IAgVePropagatorGreatArc;
Set ground vehicle to use STK External propagator
[C#]
// Set groundVehicle route to STK External propagator
groundVehicle.SetRouteType(AgEVePropagatorType.ePropagatorStkExternal);

// Retrieve propagator interface if necessary
IAgVePropagatorStkExternal propagator = groundVehicle.Route as IAgVePropagatorStkExternal;
Set ground vehicle to use Realtime propagator
[C#]
// Set ground vehicle route to STK External propagator
groundVehicle.SetRouteType(AgEVePropagatorType.ePropagatorRealtime);

// Retrieve propagator interface if necessary
IAgVePropagatorRealtime propagator = groundVehicle.Route as IAgVePropagatorRealtime;
