Trailer - Bulk Transport

Description
Keep on truckin!

Connectable Trailer.
Functional. Docks to the Semi's.
Trailer carries greater than 64kt storage units.
- Can dock to bases and capital ships. Just lower the trailer mount onto a half height block.
- Lots of individual Cargo boxes inside too. All colour coded and named.
- Wifi

It you need to deliver a crap-tonne of cargo, this trailer will help out.
Docks with this Semi Cab found here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2104818739

- Ride height is pretty good 1.5m when tethered to the semi.
- Cargo Controllers are at the rear. Cargo boxes are on the side.
- Special note: If it doesn't turn because it's dragging, (a program limitation), press auto-rotate. This is why it has unusual shapes near the tyres and stand, to help it slide better. Set ride height @ 1.5m minimum.

- Easiest to dock on flat ground. Just hover in over the back of the semi and slowly lower down. The row of red lights on the semi should be seen when low enough. Just a easy note, I've found lowering to just above the lights, then bop-bop it down as it tends to wait before docking. Ie: don't go full down, just ease slow in when you see the lights.

Logic Circuits and opening doors: When switched ON
- See white marker line, most point to what they open.
Opening:
- Lightbeam trip sensor either side, approach closely to open.
- Close range motion detector at front of trailer, (immediately in front to open).
- Rear doors open with lever at back + ramp.
- Under-tray doors use a lever, either side.
Closing:
- Walk past the front of the trailer, it closes the main doors automatically. It's range is pretty big.

Some bug/limitation notes:
Couldn't make this thing 96Kt it became too slow, falls over constantly, drags, won't turn and stops perpetually, and won't right itself either. I tried everything possible. Rear trailers won't transmit hover pad functionality.
If you manage to flip it and it won't auto-rotate, press [Shift]
Wheels, suspension and torque-gears would be great in this software.... Sigh.....
