Thankyou for bearing with me - Ive been under the weather and have trouble explaining myself at the best of times.
The tricky thing I ran into with the JPL NEO data was they don't seem to release the co-ordinates for them as they do the major solar system bodies. It looks like they just serve out a selection of orbital and observational measurements, which someone has figured out how to convert already, but it could take me ages.
A priority for the project is tidying and documenting code so that other people might use it. Recently facility for efficient collision processing was built, next I want to accommodate multi-point objects and types of bonds, to start more down to earth simulations which is what Im most interested in - dynamic spatial awareness for vacuum cleaners and things :)
