It doesnt seem that you can activate the handbrake of subgrid wheels

I've been experimenting with this ♥♥♥♥ steer system in recent efforts to rebuild one of my tanks to use pivoting tracks, looking over the settings for it vs SWCS, but I am curious how best to implement the braking system since I am going to be using the ♥♥♥♥ steer for it.

I think I read in the comments here somewhere something about using remote block group in the subgrids to toolbar toggle the brake? Or is there an argument line available in the ♥♥♥♥ steer script to make it reduce speed when pressing the brakes and allow the parking to keep it still?

@Whiplash141 in the script, on how to set it up, it says: 1. Put all the wheels, gyros, and cockpits you want to use for ♥♥♥♥ steering into a group called "♥♥♥♥ steering." and it only works when the group when is called "♥♥♥♥ Steering" and not "♥♥♥♥ steering" (idk if its something about my game but if not check it)

@Smoore:

It's ownership on all blocks the same?

Not possible to ♥♥♥♥ steer around the front wheels like that

trying to set this up on a forklift with only 4 wheels with the front fixed wheels being the pivot point. any ideas how to do this?

Mr. Whip: 1. thank you for all your contributions to the community. I don't think i would have the hours in this game if not for your massive QoL scripts. 2. I also have the "♥♥♥♥ Steering" group not found error message and could use some help. I have triple checked that i followed the instructions; what information can i provide for a little bit of troubleshooting? Funny thing is I had it working, but decided i didn't like how the rover i'm building was turning out, reloaded a save, made some adjustments to the lower grid, and then couldn't get the script to work. I ground down the PB located on the upper grid, reloaded the world, relaunched the game, all ownership is set to me, and the group name is "♥♥♥♥ Steering". I'm stuck :/. I'm building this: https://uk.pinterest.com/pin/611785930602654605/

Fair enough lol, thanks anyways!

"Do you have one that has a turret position indicator kinda like the screen on this one?"

Yes, i can't remember where I put it though lol

Absolutely loving this script. Do you have one that has a turret position indicator kinda like the screen on this one? Would love an easier way to keep track of where my turrets are for the ones with an angle that makes it difficult!

Yeah I've been meaning to do that

Hey Whip, been using this script for... Well I'm not really sure, a very long time?

Anyway awesome script, never had it fail on me, I only realized today that it can control subgrids! Honestly had no idea.

One issue with subgrids control is no hand brake feature or brake, would it be possible to add that?

Many thanks 👍

apologies, the description I was referring to was in the comments at the top of the script.
I think the comments/instructions at the top of the scripts are great. save from having to open a separate window to read the notes.

Would you be able to answer my other question, how to adjust the speed of the turning? I think it has to do with the friction settings, but I'm unsure of which to adjust

@Gemini Sierra:
The description above has ♥♥♥♥ Steering in bold and italicized. Always follow the instructions on the workshop page if the comment differs. I will be removing all of the setup instructions from scripts to avoid this desync in the future.

@Jonnyhawkeye
I had that too... and looked in the script... it should be "♥♥♥♥ Steering".
The description has "♥♥♥♥ steering" but the variable it looks for is "♥♥♥♥ Steering"

What variable do I need to change to adjust the turning speed?

Hi, I built an asymmetrical rover and when I press forward it pulls on one side? Is it because cockpit is off centre?

Hi, am trying to use the script on a vehicle. am using the track framework mod. when i use the script and try to turn, it kinda just vibrates and drive forward.

Spelling and capitalization the same?
Also, is ownership of every block on that ship set to you (including the programmable block)?

it keeps saying no group named "♥♥♥♥ steering" found, yet i made the group!

so question about the script, if i have a on my hot bar to turn it on and off could i swap to ♥♥♥♥ steering on the fly?

I am an idiot. The workshop file should work now.

Oof: "There was a problem accessing the item. Please try again."

Ah, sorry for the late response. Didn't know my profile was private. Here is a link to the blueprint:

Your profile is private, can you leave me a link?

Hey, I have been using this script for a long time and I got back after a long time of not playing and it stopped working for one of my vehicles. It works just fine on my other vehicles.

I used a blueprint I knew worked before, no luck.
I checked the block group's name and selected blocks, all looks good.
I even updated the script to the latest version.

The odd thing I noticed was the programmable block recognized the block group, but not the Controller, Wheels, or Gyro. They were listed as "(none)" or "0".

The blueprint in question is my "M1 Abrams" which can be found in my workshop. Any help would be appreciated!

Tangent, most likely you don't have In-Game scripts enabled on your world. Check the options for the world in question and make sure to enable the script option :)

After relearning how to use programmable blocks it seems I have a mod that breaks the programmable block - I don't see the "edit" function in my current world but I do in a fresh one. Sorry to waste your time.

Not a mod, its a script for the programmable block

I can't find this in my mod list. I've resubscribed to no avail. I remember this working like a charm years ago but I've come back and am at a loss.

Yes. Braking will be a bit scuffed, but control does extend over subgrids provided that the desired wheels are in the "♥♥♥♥ Steering" group

Does this work with the wheels being on separate grids attached to the main body?

Hi! Love your scripts.
I'd like to include some wheels in the ♥♥♥♥ steering group for adaptive friction but still turn normally with them. I tried the ♥♥♥♥ ignore name tag but that didn't work. Current workaround is having 20% friction on those wheels.

The turret? I'm using TCES for my turret control, so it is stabilized by that script. MART also does stabilization.

How do I make the tank tower stay in its place regardless of the base as in the photo? I can't understand why I can't do it.

Can this script work with only gyros, without wheels at all? I'm just looking for a way to turn the bottom half of my ship with gyros pressing A/D while controlling the top half gyros with the mouse.

yes, that is supported

This is a very nice script. Could it work if the treads were located on several separate subgrids? I'm very excited to try this out.

That would be really awesome!! If it is not too much effort ofc. I dont know how to code, but if i can help in anyway let me know!

That isnt really supported but i could maybe add that as an option

I probably am missing something, but I can't seem to turn whilst controlling a custom turret controller? What am I doing wrong?

Ahh odd, glad to hear it isn't the script though!

@Whiplash141: Hmm. I just checked the grid in another world and the issue did not happen, so it seems to be an issue with the world more than the script, apologies.

that is nowhere near enough wheels to cause any noticeable performance impact nominally... Do you have a copy of this grid i can take a look at?

@Whiplash141: Six small grid 5x5 suspensions. Using gyros to assist. No subgrids involved.

@Game: Hmm, not really. Is this with or without assistance gyros?

@Souls: Not really... How many wheels do you have?

I get a HEAVY simspeed drop when steering with this script for some reason, any ideas why? Driving straight is fine, accelerating, decelerating, or otherwise. But steering drops simspeed to like 0.5ish.

Sooo whenever i try to turn on my tank it starts spinning properly, then yanks around a full 180 or 360 degrees in the direction of the turn... any ideas?

Oh wait, I don't think it's the script, sorry!

Whenever I enable handbrake the wheels just stop working. They can jump but cant move forward/back. How do I fix this?
