Formerly Named "Whip's Rotor Thruster Manager"


  Update
  • Added custom data configuration. You no longer need to open the code and change variables!
  • Added cute little animated running screens :D




  Description
Howdy!

This script allows you to control thrusters over subgrids. This code will also work with inertial dampeners!

This script does not control subgrids themselves, it simply allows you to control subgrid thrust like regular thrusters. Also, if you change the angle the of subgrid thruster, the code will automatically adjust the movement keys that fire it.

As always, I will continue to improve this code :)


  Setup Instructions
  1. Place a seat or remote on the main grid.
    • NEW - If you want only specific ship controllers to be considered, add the name tag "Reference" to the name of the block.
  2. Put this code in a programmable block.
  3. Attach thrusters to your subgrids. If you are using rotors or hinges, I suggest you lock them because there are some strange physics bugs associated with thrust on rotors.
    • You do not need any thrusters on your main grid! However, if you wish to enable/disable dampeners, you'd need to use the dampener toggle arguments.
    • Thrusters on grids with connectors are IGNORED by default. This is to avoid taking control of docked grid's thrusters. To change this, configure the corresponding key inside the custom data.

  4. Enjoy!


  Ship Controller Prioritization
The script will automagically detect what seat you are controlling on your ship and begin controlling subgrid thrust. If you have name tagged ship controllers, only those ship controllers will be considered for prioritization. If you have multiple ship controllers on your ship, it will select them based on the following priority.
  1. Main seat/remote
  2. The first seat that was controlled


  Arguments
Argument
Function
on
Turns program control of subgrid thrust on
off
Turns program control of subgrid thrust off
toggle
Toggles program control of subgrid thrust off/on
dampeners_on
Turns dampeners of sub-grid thrust off
dampeners_off
Turns dampeners of sub-grid thrust off
dampeners_toggle
Toggles dampeners of sub-grid thrust off/on


  Author's Notes
I designed this code to make flying with VTOL and thrust vectoring craft much easier and much more fun. I truly hope that this code brings you as much joy as it does to me!

Remember to lock your subgrids or you will get torque :)

If you notice any bugs/want to make suggestions feel free to leave a comment! This code is by no means perfect; I will continue to update and fix any issues that this code has to make it the best as possible :)

This should also go without saying, but do not reupload without explicit permission from me, not even to mod.io.

thank you works great

i forget, but do thrusters have ownership now? if so, ensure all ownership is the same

I set connector detection to true, but it is stilll not recognizing my thrusters, any aidea why? I am on the new update.

yes, your physics stability may vary though, nothing the script can do to fix that heh

do this work on multiple rotors ? Like my ship is Main body , rotor , rotor , rotor , thrusters

Very easy to use and works instantly, amazing! :steamthumbsup:

is it possible to make a mod out of this as own block? so admin can add it and Programmable blocks don't need to be active on servers?
evanthegamer2023 15 AGO a las 11:05 
yo how do i get the code?

You are a god! Thank you, now I can realize all my engineer fantasies!

I think my subgrid thrusters are draining fuel in space while drifting. I turn off inertia dampeners and unless I also turn off the thrusters, I still lose fuel.
