Hello,

I want to simulate the motion of debris (a cube made of pfacet) and a group of 
cylinders orbiting around the Earth. To do this, I want to use the 
Clohessy–Wiltshire equations [1]. I thought I could use the forceEngine, but it 
appears it can only apply a constant force. The CentralGravityEngine will not 
work because the length scale involved would be of the order of 6000km, so I 
may not be able to use the viewer to check the motion. Is there a way to define 
a force field using a fuction for position. The FieldApplier looks promising, 
but how do I use it?

Kind regards,
Rohit John
