Hi

Stellarium is used by a lot of people to explain and show astronomical phenomena and for this reason there is a configuration file to enable individual setting up.

If you check the default configuration file you will see that most of the options are set to false as the initial set up. Because most users like their own settings an existing configuration file will not be automatically overwritten.

When the telescope control function was introduced it emphasised setting light_travel_time to true.

A lot of the configuration settings would be more useful if they could be set from within the program but it takes time to implement them.
