Chris's Crazy Thrust Vectoring

[2022]

have not revisited for a long time - should be functional (mostly stable)

make sure you follow instructions

if something breaks i might be able to fix it - if you fix it and message me i will publish the fix for sure.

If I am alive whenever space engineers stops getting updates, I intend to go through and revamp this script. It is hard/frustrating to develop mods/scripts when potential breaking updates might be released around the corner.

[/2022]

This script controls all thrusters on your ship currently, in the future it will only control thrusters in a group called 'thrusters' or something like that.

To create a ship:

You will need at least 1 rotor for roll and 1 rotor for pitch

ROTORS:
Name any rotor pointing forwards RotorRoll
Name any rotor pointing backwards RotorRollInv
Name any rotor pointing right RotorPitch
Name and rotor pointing left RotorPitchInv

This will work as long as it is in some planetary gravity (also on the todo list to make it function in space)


TIP*ACTIVATE THE SCRIPT AND NAME ROTORS BEFORE BULDING ON THEM*
this will make building onto the rotors easier because the rotor will already be aligned with the natural gravity vector

Rotors can be placed onto each other (ex. rotor pitch on a rotor roll) but I havent tested more than 2 rotors on each other, so I dont recommend doing that.

MEANT FOR THRUSTERS TO BE ON BOTH A ROLL AND PITCH AXIS, seperate axis may not apply thrust properly, this is a goal but has not yet been implemented

CONTROLS:
WASD/SPACE/C- Its pretty self explanatory

Inertial dampening is automatic, whether it is on or not

Q/A:

Q: A thruster is being weird how do i fix
A: try deleting and re adding it

Q: how does this work
A: i made it and im not really sure either

Q: can i do rotor limits
A: sure

Q: i looked at your code and its ****
A: im aware, thanks

Q: i cant control my ship, its going all over place
A: first make sure to have gryoscopes, and try enabling share inertia tensor (only needed if rotors are in asymetric layout)

feel free to leave suggesitons/ideas/bugs in comments


Roadmap (in no specific order):
-Space integration
-Better thruster management (in script and as options)
-Optimization (script rewrite,values)
-Gyro + Altitude Dampening/Crusing
-More customization options in general
-RotorYaw support, im not optimistic about this
