Keep direction in orbit?


Recommended Posts

So I have this satellite in a geo-orbit and was wondering if it is somehow possible to keep it faced in the direction of the planet? Not very satellity facing away from it every other orbit cycle.

Currently, it is not possible to place a rotation on the satellite that matched the orbital period. Perhaps, in a future update, that could be implemented in the ASAS controller.
