This is currently sitting in a text file somewhere and should be put in the code, possibly with a command line switch (or at least a macro) to enable it. The first draft checked whether the calculate method was operating on body #1 (Mercury); if so it would do extra stuff. It should really be generalised (when enabled) to apply the relativistic adjustment to all body-body calculations. That little fudge factor should be removed too. http://ejrh.wordpress.com/2011/03/05/faking-relativity/

Fixed in r142. The galaxy objects allows for a single star to be marked as the "gravity well"; corrections are made to each object according to its relation from this, and from the point of view of an observer outside that gravity well.

Fixed
