Liftoff manager

Beskrivning
Simple script for conserving hydrogen while leaving a planet.

Quick setup:
  • Put thrusters you want to control in group "Rocket Up Thrusters"
  • Have cockpit or remote control block on grid
  • Timer named "Rocket Timer Block" set to run this script
  • Run script to start.

Essential functionality:
  • By default it takes control over all thrusters in "Rocket Up Thrusters" group and dynamically adjusts override to maintain 100 m/s (or more if you are using speed mod) using least fuel possible.
  • Turns off override after leaving gravity field.

For example of use look at this blueprint.

Extra stuff:
  • Optionally you can use LCD Panel named "Rocket LCD Panel" to display basic status and information.
  • You can change gravityThreshold if you want it to turn hydrogen off earlier than after completely leaving gravity.
  • For most efficient setup with other types of thrusters manually put them on max override for duration of liftoff. And start the script only after you reached max speed. Then it will use hydrogen thrusters only as much as it is needed to support others.
  • For emergency abort run the script with "STOP" as argument.

Planned features:
  • Turning thrusters off and coasting to end of gravity field (if dampeners were "ON").
  • Automatic determination which thrusters to control based on orientation relative to gravity field
  • Using tags instead of set names

This script just claims I'm not in planet gravity and shuts down immediately.

I've tried it and it doesn't seem to work, throws an exception on compile in star system.

Advanced liftoff control does support mixed thrusters and should be able to do everything this one does. I dont know if it actually still compiles on the current release though. If it does, it will run just fine, if it doesnt i might get around to fixing it eventually.

Guess you can't edit. Going through my list and I found I have a 3rd liftoff script also marked: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=637302443

I have 2 of these launch control scripts marked. This one and https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=773073270
That other one looks to have better option for mixed thrusters, but both haven't been updated in over 2 years. Anyone done any comparing/checking of them. Anyone try them in the testing branch they've been giving access to a few days at a time? Next test, tomorrow.

I've gotten the script to work just fine. The only thing I haven't gotten to work yet is the automatic turn off when you pass under a certain gravity threshold.

It seems that the script is not working anymore.
I have tried it with the Simple Rocket in the "Easy Start Earth" world without mods.

The script ignore the speed limit what i set when there is a higher (modded) speedlimit in the world.
But the rest is great. I transported 1.300.000 kg (1 Big Chest in 1x Inventory) to space with only 3 Big Thruster and 1 Hydrogen Tank!

It where great if the "Rocket" make a 180 Grad turn then 0.0g is arrived and take the "Up thruster" to stop the rocket.
