Confused about Calculating time of Vizard Simulation

[KetanKamat-5]

Hello, I'm having trouble correlating SimulationTime and how long a Vizard simulation takes.

For example, when I run the example script scenarioBasicOrbit.py the simulationTime set in the code is
4371.38747990954 [s] = 4371387479910 [ns].

However, the Vizard simulation takes 1 minute and 9 seconds to complete in Vizard.

I would appreciate it if someone could give me guidance on how to calculate the Vizard simulation time from the time specified in the code.

In Vizard you can see the protobuffer message content for each frame displayed by going to the View menu and opening up that panel. There you can see what simulation time is provided to Vizard. Further, the time steps shown are controlled by how often vizInterface module is called. If it is called at 5s intervals, then you only get 5s resolution, even if the simulation modules were running at 1s.
