This is the prototype we used to optimize orbital motion. It features very simple mechanics to simulate a 'simplified' orbital motion method. It can simulate fairly realistic orbits. The upside is that it is one of the keys to our very low resources consumption. The downside is it can't simulate very elliptical orbits. The formula used to this can be found on wikipedia under orbital motion.
