Silicon,

Is there a way to reload modifications made to .sc files without restarting SE?

No, because the internal database and the hierarchy of the objects would have to be rebuild each time by SpaceEngine.





Don't forget to look here.

It's in SolarSys.sc, with Eris, Haumea and the other planets. Eventually if some other big candidate will be declared dwarf planet, it should be moved in SolarSys.sc and from the list as well.

Ok.

You shouldn't include surface features in the .sc. SE generates that itself.

DwarfMoon "Celle I/S2003 (3782) 1"

It is not know as "Celle I". An "I" is only added to the end of a satellite that has been given a permanent designation, which this has not. Also its should be called "S2001 (3782) 1". The number after the S (Which stands for satellite) is the year it was discovered, not the year it was announced.

I use the option "export", is for a relief more "soft". The name "Celle I" is just for simplicity.

It should be noted though, that all Wikipedia articles are referring to the companion as 2003 (3782) 1. Still looking into this, but papers I've seen don't cite any name, conventions aside. I'd like a confirmation other than Wikipedia sources.

Lucas0231, I assume you used some data from french Wikipedia article and their sources, since Mean Anomaly and other orbital parameters are corresponding. Nonetheless radius and other parameters are not quite the same.
Did you use SE Editor to input some data, perhaps?

Ow, I'm too slow to post. I see, now I think I know why the RefPlane is "Extrasolar".

No, I use the JPL, but I use Wikipedia in French for few data (radius and semi major axis of the satellite).

Ok, thanks, I'll try to merge your data.
There are a couple of mistakes, you used days for Period value instead of years, and "Extrasolar" must be changed in "Ecliptic".
Also the semimajor axis of the companion is 30 km instead of 18 like in wikipedia, that's why I asked.

Edit:
It turns out that nobody cared even for a provisional name, at least it seems by IAU circulars, because still investigating as "chip" member of Vesta family.
Then we'll go by convention, and we'll use the year of discovery, ignoring Wikipedia (those articles are stub anyway) which probably based the name on the date of the announce. Unless someone else has more recent data.

I got this from just looking at the names of moons on Johnson's Archive which seem to be based on the date of discovery.

Yeah, me too, sources sometimes can be unclear or there could be exceptions anyway.

Asteroid Celle added, barycenter calculated from data provided.

2004 BP108 system have wrong rotational axes. Fix:

Code
Asteroid "2004 PB108"
{
    ParentBody  "2004 PB108 System"
    Class       "Asteroid"
    Radius      121.5 //Volume 7.51E6 = 87%
    Mass    1.586E-6
    AsterType  "Cubewano"
    AbsMagn     6.6
    SlopeParam  0.15
    Albedo      0.08
    Obliquity   106.55

    Orbit
    {
  Epoch     2457400.5
  SemiMajorAxis    9.0376E-6 // 10400 km
  Period   0.265632
  Eccentricity    0.438
  Inclination  106.55
  ArgOfPericenter    180
  MeanAnomaly   0
  RefPlane    "Ecliptic"
    }
}

Asteroid "S2006 (2004 PB108) 1"
{
    ParentBody  "2004 PB108 System"
    Class       "Asteroid"
    Radius      64.5 //Volume 1.12E6 = 13%
    Obliquity   106.55

    Orbit
    {
  Epoch     2457400.5
  SemiMajorAxis    6.048E-5 // 10400 km
  Period   0.265632
  Eccentricity    0.438
  Inclination   106.55
  ArgOfPericenter    0
  MeanAnomaly   0
  RefPlane    "Ecliptic"
    }
}


Please copy these parameters from old astroids/Kuiper belt catalogs:

Code

    AsterType  "Cubewano"
    AbsMagn     6.6
    SlopeParam  0.15


AbsMagn and SlopeParam are used to calculate apparent stellar magnitude of asteroid, AsterType will be used in future.
