Hello,

For now, you have to use TLE to set the position of any object.
That is to say something like this:

body action load name "Lovejoy " parent Sun radius 1000 oblateness 0.0 halo true color 1.0,1.0,1.0 tex_halo star16×16.png coord_func comet_orbit orbit_TimeAtPericenter 2455911.5209 orbit_PericenterDistance 0.005507 orbit_Eccentricity 0.999894 orbit_ArgOfPericenter 54.0820 orbit_AscendingNode 327.0941 orbit_Inclination 134.6614 lighting false  albedo 1 orbit_visualization_period 5E+2 close_orbit 0

Not a X Y Z coordinates parameter...

Can you help with this problem?
