SWCS | Whip's Subgrid Wheel Control Script

This script allows you to control steering and propulsion of wheels attached via pistons, rotors, or hinges using regular movement keys! Wheels will also emulate brake inputs as well.

The acronym is pronounced like "swicks" :)

This is a feature we have been dying for for ages, and Keen has finally allowed this control in the new MP update :D

1. Place this script on your ship with subgrid wheels
   
2. CHECK OWNERSHIP
   
3. Enjoy!

Seat prioritization closely matches vanilla for simplicity. In order of highest priority to least:

1. The main cockpit on the ship
   
2. The first controlled seat that can control wheels
   
3. The first seat the code finds

• You can configure variables like the braking constant in the Custom Data of the programmable blocks this runs from
  
• Handbrake (P or toggling handbrake on for the seat that you are controlling the wheels from) is synchronized across all ship controllers on the grid. If you place remote controls on the subgrids that have wheels, this will make the parking brake much more effective!

Poorly. This is because of several things:

1. There is no brake toggle option for individual wheels. To apply brakes to a wheel, you must do that via a ship controller.
   
2. A ship controller can only apply brakes to the wheels on its grid
   
3. As of update 1.199, ship controllers with no wheels on their grids can no longer be used to read braking information

Hand brakes will be enabled for the duration of the keypress.

To toggle parking brake, you must use one of the following script arguments:
To toggle parking brake, hit the

key (default parking brake key)

When parking brake is toggled, the ship controller will be used to turn brakes on for that grid's wheels.
When parking brake is toggled, the script will attempt to approximate parking brake by controlling the wheels to slow you down. This is less effective than the alternative, but it is better than nothing.



I hope y'all enjoy this! I've had a framework waiting for ages on the chance that this functionality would be added, so I was ecstatic when I saw that these functions were in the MP test branch!

I tried to make this script crazy simple to configure, so I hope it doesn't backfire XD

There is no brake override (the checkbox in terminal is something completely different), so I had to improvise. It isn't perfect but it works.

Be sure to report any bugs below in the Bug Reports discussion.

(Also, this should also go without saying, but do not reupload without explicit permission from me, not even to mod.io.)
