Description

Description

I believe the range constraint is not imposed when the mission has only one phase, and target_range is ignored. This is because the connection from traj.<final_phase>.timeseries.distance[-1] to Mission.Summary.RANGE is added only when the mission has more than one phases in link_phases.
(So technically, the range constraint is imposed but Mission.Summary.RANGE is not having a valid value.)

I know single-phase missions are not practical, but I thought it would be nice to have the range constraint for any mission setup. Thank you!

Example

For example, if I add target_range to this cruise-only example, the cruise duration remains unchanged and the target range is achieved.
