some comments / suggestions
biggest question to settle for me atm is whether we support meshes at all. if so, we should structure the code around it. However if the math is too tricky with generic meshes, then maybe we just stick to cuboid everywhere. what do you think @GabrieleMeoni ?

Based on how the object was made, this was correct (default was to center the satellite around the origin of the satellite reference frame). But with the new mesh method proposed in the issue, this will be changed

@Moanalengkeek please request review with the arrow buttons under review when I should have another look ;)
PS. also added you to the repo so the CI runs automatically (before I had to manually start the tests so it makes sense adding you after all ;) ) |

Thanks! Will do. I also tied to find where the tests failed, but it seems to be in a place I didn't change. Would you have any resources for best troubleshooting of such tests? |

Hi @Moanalengkeek and everyone. First of all, thanks to @gomezzz for the support in providing an exact revision. Thanks to you for your contribution to PASEOS. I think your implementation generally looks good. Supporting a mesh is for long-term vision, but I would stick to a Cuboid, as Pablo suggested, for the next steps. Before approving this PR, please improve the comments in the code. A few things shall be clarified:
In terms of reference frame, in the frame of the next PR you should create a new directory inside PASEOS, providing utilities to transform your frame to one attached to Earth, which is needed for the pointing vector coordinates. |

Moved to #195, which does not need a fork. |
Description
Adding a geometric model to the model. This is done with two possibilities; option 1 is to model a basic cuboid with width, length, and height. Option 2 is to import an .obj file, and to use the mesh from that.
Summary of changes
Resolved Issues
How Has This Been Tested?
Tested by the two tests mentioned added in actor_builder_test.py, as well as running a simple code that generates an actor and creates the geometry
