Should cmd_states have an off-nominal roll column? #25

Closed jeanconn closed 6 years ago

jeanconn commented 8 years ago

It is a derived parameter, but so is pitch and we've got that in the database.

And if we don't add the column, should the code to compute off nominal roll over a set of states live in cmd_states?

This can be computed on-the-fly. It certainly seems reasonable to do so by introducing the concept of computed state columns.

And I should have said the same thing about pitch years ago...
