Heliostat field X-Y method was created by paulgauche

Hello, I'm looking for some info on how the rectangular coordinate model works and what the limitations are. I have a heliostat field that is fitted to a specific location and highly constrained, so it is in no way symmetrical. SAM help states "In the x-y coordinate mode, SAM requires that the field by symmetric around the north-south axis."
