List of available Comets

General advice about using KRC on Comets

When using KRC on Europa the best practice is to:

  • For KRC Davinci Interface, use "comet" as the bodytype
  • For KRC Davinci interface, use quotation marks around the bodytype and body parameter (See Command Line Example Below)
  • For additional help see the Comets section of the advanced tutorial
