NavOS 2

A script I made for automating some long distance travel, matching speed to a locked weaponcore target, and some other things. The main feature is that most operations (except target speed lock) uses the primary (forward) thrust most of the time. Oh, and it's super accurate. Usually with <1 meter error

I use this script on the draconis expanse server but it should work anywhere pbs are allowed.

Source Code: https://github.com/StarCpt/SE-NavOS-2

v2.14.7:
Fixed journey failing to restore properly on recompile
Set default offset to 500 meters when installed without an existing config

v2.14.6:
Fixed slow reaction times for Retroburn and Speedmatch
Fixed script going into sleep unintentionally

v2.14.5:
Added sleep mode, entered if idle for 10 seconds
Added proper units for distance and speeds
Fixed directional dampening bug
Fixed crash on startup when an older config is present

v2.14.4:
Fixed a bug causing side thrusters to rapid fire
Fixed MaintainDesiredSpeed always turning on regardless of the config
Significantly improved cruise accuracy
Decreased average script runtime

v2.14.1, 2.14.2, 2.14.3:
Fix insufficient sideways dampening in Cruise

v2.14:
Add Journey mode
Added config option to maintain desired speed on servers with RTS
Fixed a bug that would make cruise mode enter OrientAndDecelerate mode on nexus seamless transfers and game reloads
Made cruise offset require side offset to also be nonzero to prevent crashes on overshoot situations
Minified script due to character count - source is available on github

You must recompile when the config is changed.

• PersistStateData: DO NOT TOUCH
  
  
• ShipControllerTag: Put this tag in the name of the controller you want to use for orientation
  
  
• ThrustGroupName: Only use thrusters in this group for navigation. Uses all thrusters on the ship if the group doesn't exist
  
  
• GyroGroupName: Same as above but for gyros. Uses the first gyro in the group.
  
  
• ConsoleLcdName: Name of the LCD you want some navigation information to be written to
  
  
• CruiseOffsetDist: For GPS and X:Y:Z cruise commands, come to a stop this many meters earlier than the target
  
• CruiseOffsetSideDist: For GPS and X:Y:Z cruise commands, offset the target by this many meters to the side (side = a random perpendicular direction to the target from your current position)
  
  
• Ship180TurnTimeSeconds: How long it takes the ship to do a 180 degree turn in seconds.
  You need to set this to equal to or more than the actual 180 turn time. It determines when to turn for deceleration in case it can't get up to full cruise speed. This field is not calculated automatically, run CalibrateTurn to calculate this field. Recalibration is required whenever the mass of the ship changes significantly.
  
  
• MaintainDesiredSpeed: Keeps the ship oriented to the target during cruise and maintains the desired speed if possible (resists RTS friction) until deceleration time.
  
  
• [Journey Start] and [Journey End] (Experimental!)
  This is where journey data is input. Waypoint Format: <DesiredSpeed> <StopAtWaypoint> <GPS>
  StopAtWaypoint: Whether to stop at the destination or pass thru the point at speed
  Example:
  
  [Journey Start]
  200 true GPS:StarCpt #2:-17787:48220:-29137:
  550 false GPS:StarCpt #3:-17933:48686:-29105:#FF75C9F1:
  150 true GPS:StarCpt #4:-17995:48270:-29421:#FF75C9F1:
  [Journey End]
  
  Note: The ship will be brought to a stop at the last waypoint regardless of the StopAtWaypoint flag

• Cruise <DesiredSpeed> <ForwardDistanceMeters>
  Automatically travels the set distance in the forward direction of the ship controller (cockpit) at the desired speed.
  Example: Cruise 500 20000
  
  
• Cruise <DesiredSpeed> <X:Y:Z>
  Automatically travels to the set coordinates (plus the offset in config) at the desired speed.
  Example: Cruise 500 15000:70000:17000
  
  
• Cruise <DesiredSpeed> <GPS>
  Same as above for GPSes
  Example: Cruise 500 GPS:target:15000:70000:17000:FFFFFF
  
  
• Retro/Retrograde
  Points the ship in the opposite direction of travel
  
  
• Prograde
  Points the ship in the direction of travel
  
  
• Retroburn
  Points the ship to retrograde and stops the ship
  
  
• Match
  Matches speed to CURRENT WeaponCore lock, stays on that target even if locked target changes.
  Rerun the command to change speed match target to current WeaponCore lock.
  
  
• Orient <GPS>
  Orients the ship to point in the direction of the gps with no thruster controls applied.
  
  
• Abort
  Aborts any ongoing navigation routines. Disables all gyro and thrust overrides and reloads the config. Does not enable dampeners
  
  
• Reload
  Reloads the config from PB Custom Data. Must be run whenever the config is edited (recompilation also works)
  
  
• ThrustRatio <ratio>
  
• MaxThrustOverrideRatio <ratio>
  Sets the MaxThrustOverrideRatio config value. Input a value between 0 and 1. This is an alternative to editing the config.
  Using either ThrustRatio or MaxthrustOverrideRatio commands will do the same thing.
  Example: ThrustRatio 0.6
  
  
• Thrust Set <ratio>
  Sets thrust override ratio on forward thrusters. Example command will set forward thrusters on 50% override.
  Example: Thrust Set 0.5
  
  
• CalibrateTurn
  Measure and set the Ship180TurnTimeSeconds variable in the config. Make sure the ship is not moving or rotating when this command is used.
  
  
• Journey Load (Experimental!)
  Loads the journey setup from config
  
  
• Journey Start (Experimental!)
  Starts the journey if waypoints are loaded
