Whip's Turret Based Radar

Howdy!

This script uses turret targeting to populate a 3D radar and is designed to increase the user's situational awareness. This script also works with custom turret control blocks!

This radar bears many visual and functional similarities to those of Elite Dangerous. Targets are plotted upon an angled plane centered around your ship, and vertical lines denote the target's elevation above your ship.

Also, targets are shared across antenna networks; if one ship detects a target, any other ships within its antenna range can see that target on their radar.

Targets locked with WHAM or LAMP will also be displayed.

1. Place this script on your ship.
   
2. Add turrets and custom turret control blocks to your ship.
   
3. Add Radar to the name of text panels or blocks with text surfaces that you want the radar displayed.
   
   • Blocks with text surfaces include: Cockpits, flight seats, programmable blocks, consoles, etc.
     
   • Configure which text surface the radar is displayed on within the block's custom data (You don't need to do this for text panels).

• Place one or more ship controllers on your ship (Cockpits, Flight Seats, or Remote Controls).
  • These will be used to orient the way the radar is drawn.
• Place the word Reference in the name of the specific ship controller that you want use to orient the radar.
  
  • If you do not specify, the code will automatically detect and use the seat you are controlling the ship from!
• Place some sensors on your ship if you want to also use sensors to detect targets.
  
• Place one or more antennas to enable the antenna network target sharing functionality.

NOTE: If you don't have turrets on your ship, the code will still work; however, you will only be able to see targets that are broadcast to you by other friendlies.


You can change how the radar looks and behaves within the Custom Data of the programmable block this script is running from. Simply open the custom data, modify it, and click "Ok". The code will update to reflect these changes within 10 seconds at most.



You can also combine multiple LCD panels together to create larger surfaces to draw sprites on.

In order to create a multiscreen display:

1. Make a wall of LCD panels (They must all be the same type of LCD).
   
2. Add the name tag Radar to only the top left LCD panel in the wall.
   
3. Add the following to the custom data of that top left LCD panel:
   
   [Radar - Multiscreen Config] Screen rows=1 Screen cols=1
   • Change "Screen rows" and "Screen cols" to match the shape of your screen wall.
4. Run the argument refresh to process changes.

This will now be treated as one massive LCD screen!



To use an argument, enter it in the argument box and click the "Run" button.


Yes, simply add sensors to your ship.

It uses the max range of the turrets on your ship (default) or the range override.

Turrets.

They need this radar script and they need to have you within antenna range.

There are also other scripts that broadcast valid IFF messages including:

• LAMP
  
• Turret Slaving
  
• Turret Based Radar Transponder (user made)

No. They merely need to be in turret range.

• You have no allied ships nearby with this radar
  
• Your turrets are not shooting at any targets

Yes. Change the range override in the custom data of the program block.

No, hence the name. Raycast is absolutely awful at blindly scanning volumes without slagging sim-speed.

However, if you use LAMP or WHAM with a raycast (Lidar) lock, those targets will be shown.

Keen capped the refresh rate of sprite drawn canvases to 6 Hz for performance reasons.

The screens in the cockpits are inherently darker than the LCD or text panel screens. Also, their resolution isn't all that great either.

Yes.

No, due to a WeaponCore decision to be incompatible with the script API.

However, user Sigmund Froid has made a script that will broadcast weapon core target info to this script.

Send an IGC broadcast message with tag IGC_IFF_MSG and content MyTuple<byte, long, Vector3D, double>.

• byte: Target info flags. To combine flags, simply add the numbers together.
  Flag values: Neutral=0, Enemy=1, Friendly=2, Locked=4, LargeGrid=8, SmallGrid=16, Missile = 32, Asteroid=64.
  
• long: Entity ID of the target.
  
• Vector3D: Position of the target.
  
• double: Squared radius of the target. Used by the turret slaver for friendly fire avoidance.

Yes. See the section titled "Compatibility with other scripts" in the Auto LCD 2 Guide.
