Find a way to get the correct "Correction value" #9

Whenever you switch to inverse rotation and tilt the planetarium the orbits of the unloaded vessels are adjusted automatically.

Unfortunately, they are not perfect and I had to use a "correction value"

With the planetarium not rotated:

On the next image the planetarium is rotated and as you can see the orbit is not the same, even tough the orbital parameters are

Finally, manually searching for a fixed value, the orbit matches

This value is specific for a savegame so it might be related with the game time or some other value. Unfortunately I didn't find a way to get it automatically

It seems that this value is related to the Planetarium.InverseRotAngle but there must be some operation involved with the orbit.period aswell....
