Tank steering for Advanced vehicles + w/s a/d control

Description
Updated version of this : https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3107011592

This microcontroller is for tank steering,
I built this microcontroller for a friend but everyone might need it so feel free to use it, please credit me if you use it on a creation shared on the workshop with a phrase like "tank steering by MarcusAurele" or something like that thank you ^^

Requirement ( to see the disposition watch the screenshot ):
- two power train, one for the left side one for the right side
- a gearbox with ratio 2 set at 1:-1 and a clutch for each power train.
- a main cluch between the engine and the power train

How do i make it work ?
Connect the w/s and a/d output from your seat to the w/s and a/d input of the microcontroller
connect the outputs of the microcontroller to the corresponding piece
The w/s DOES NOT control the throttle of your engine, the microcontroller manage the clutches and gearboxes and nothing more
You can also connect a throttle lever to the w/s input if you prefer to hold the speed but to hold speed your throttle lever must be greater than 0.90 or less than -0.90. If it is not it will stop the tank.

and that it, hope i helped you feel free to ask anything in the comments or report a bug

No problem :)
It is uploaded: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3107011592

I did not really have one workshop ready. So I had to modify the one from my M6A1 (this tank is on the workshop btw). If there are any problem please tell me. I did not have much time to do this modifications and might not come back on it unless someone tells me there is a problem.

It would be nice if you did that, im sorry if i sounded a bit to criticizing, i was tired atm and in a bit grouchy mood

Hey, sorry for the delayed answer
This is quite old, i've done better one since but have not uploaded it. If you are interested i can upload it
Yes it could be done with only 2 clutches. Why did I do it with 3 at the time ? I don't know. It was more than 4 years ago.
has said before, since then I've made better ones with only 2 clutches, that i could upload if you want
Trubadur 29 Nov, 2023 @ 12:48pm 
also why is there a main clutch? isnt it possible to get the same function from just dissengaging both of the clutches?
Trubadur 29 Nov, 2023 @ 12:39pm 
huh it doesent show up on the microcontroller thing in inventory

ok thanks!

You can put gearboxes between the engine and the first clutch to make it go faster

nevermind on the last one but is there a way for it to go faster
