You should make a script that allows you to connect PistonHeads if you already have this information down because this would allow me to make a piston elevator that you can even make an survival, and boi have I been waiting to make a survival capable elevator

Do this work? I remember when i try to use rotor attach script to piston game crash at attach.

Thank you so much Jon!

@major Jon hey can you copy paste all of the Script in to the comment so i can take it from there? the Code doesnt work for me,

I've actually built a fighter with a super gridded missile turret that can pull from a small grid conveyor directly and a dropship with a working supergridded large hydrogen thruster. It does work but it requires some extra effort because they only connect to small grid large conveyors.

The small grid piston only has a small port, there isn't any version with a large one and I'm pretty sure it's impossible to conveyor anything when using supergridding. You'll have to resort to putting a rotor on the piston, I don't think there's any other way.

is there any chance of a vershon of this with a large convayor transition?
would be more use for loading fighters and bombers with such a port.

What is awesome:
✕ A piston with small piston head (blueprint)
〇 "I did it so you don't have to"

nicely done

Well was mostly just curious but I build really big small ships so was imagining large turrets. You can do it with rotors but it's tricky since they can't extend as far.
Major Jon  [author] 21 Jun, 2020 @ 5:30am 
I think so, but I can't really think of any use for that. I'm pretty sure you can just build it roughly the same way as this one in the video.
JWA 21 Jun, 2020 @ 12:06am 
Is it possible to do in reverse? Large head to small piston?

Witchcraft...

once again you defeated the clang itself. really impressive! o.O
how do you get these ideas?
Renz 20 Jun, 2020 @ 12:24pm 
:O

Took me some time, but I finally figured out a reliable way to build it in survival. Building tutorial is in the videos and a link to the code in the description.

cursed
Renz 20 Jun, 2020 @ 1:51am 
Would that mean, with script, that this is possible in survival?!

blueprint files? sounds as something extremely interesting
Major Jon  [author] 19 Jun, 2020 @ 1:43pm 
To attach piston heads? I've never actually made a proper one, just did it impromptu.
Kinda like this:
void Main(){
IMyPistonBase piston = GridTerminalSystem.GetBlockWithName("Piston 1");
piston.Attach();}
I made this blueprint without any script btw, just manipulated the blueprint file itself.
Blacky Watchy 19 Jun, 2020 @ 1:09pm 
could you share script?
is amazing

What voodoo is this?
