* Using variables as defined in Ben's formulas
* Using axes relations and rotation directions as defined in Ben's formulas

* Limit beam angle to 120 degrees
* Limit (inner) beam cone radius to 0 (if outer radius is less than rim size)

* Will be used to determine pulse profile (instead of freely moveable camera)
* Slightly reduced spin/magnetic axes to allow line of sight to overlap

* Interactive control via GUI (initial setting 20 degrees)
* Also: variable for beam length/height
* Also: variable for beam rim size (thickness)

* Removed binary features
  - Removed companion
  - Removed orbital planes
  - Removed pulsar mass
  - Removed semi major axis
* Using triangle fans and rims to contruct complex beam cones (instead of simple quadric)
* Using wireframe model instead of textures (better cone feature visualisation)
* Using lighting only for spherical pulsar shape (doesn't yet work for cones)
* Adjusted pulsar rotation axis to line up with wireframe poles
* Adjusted initial view to be in line with rotation axis (as requested by Ben)

* JPG version fails to load on some Macs and on Windoze (static build)
* TODO: try alternatives to reduce the PNG size or fix the root cause

* Using show event to update pulse profile
* Using 60 deg inclination of magentic axis

* Reduces perspective effects (e.g. on pulse amplitude)
* Also: added upper zoom boundary and improved lower bound

* Quadratic shape
* Dimensions a power of 2
* Maximum size (automatic scaling if exceeded)
* Also: removed simple background

* Using rotation angle directly (instead of independent stepping)
* One signal/slot link for position update and reset
* Also: added pulse profile update (reset) to stop animation slot

* Flipped rotation direction
* Added missing rotation angle capping (0-359 deg)
* Removed superfluous "mouse sensitivity" factor
* Removed superfluous camera update

* Use double precision
* No explicit float literals

* Using fixed initializations instead of GUI values (required for consistency)
* Added missing initializations
* Fixed coordinate system and angle transformations (GUI vs. physics)
* Fixed trigonometry blunder (deg vs. rad)
* Also: optimized camera updates
* Also: more comments
* Pending: marker increasingly out of sync (over time)

* Actual values still have to be verified (likely to be wrong)
* Pulse profile emitted via signal (connected to scope widget)
