By default, STK uses 90 points when generating a sensor pattern such as a cone or complex cone. In most cases, this creates a smooth-looking sensor shape, but in some cases you may want overwrite this value. You can do this by editing your _Default.ap file. There are two locations this file can exist in:
- <user folder>\STK 12\Config\Defaults\_Default.ap (If this file exists, edit it.)
- C:\Program Files\AGI\STK 12\STKData\Defaults\_Default.ap
Insert a PointsInCircularPattern line into the ClassPreference section as follows:
BEGIN ClassPreferences
Class Sensor
SaveTargetSched No
PointsInCircularPattern 123
END Sensor
END ClassPreferences
where 123 is the new number of points you want to use.
