Description
The whole purpose of this script is to set a specific height for all your wheel suspensions at once or toggle between two heights. This could be useful to adjust the height for connectors or to lock the vehicle with landing gears to the ground. Optionally, the vehicle's lights can be changed to display the current state.

Current Version:
Version: 1.0.2
Date: 2018-07-25

Main features:
  • Set a specific height for all your wheel suspensions at once
  • Toggle between two heights of all your wheel suspensions
  • Optional: change the color of all vehicle lights to display the current state

Setup:
  • set up a programmable block with the script
  • run the script with one of the arguments described in the instructions of the script
  • no timer required
  • Note: Game has to be in experimental mode and ingame scripts have to enabled in world options!

The toggle function of this script no longer works.

Can strength be adjusted ? i think strength is more important than heights

I spent way too long looking for something to do this. This is great.

Would it be hard to ammend this script to also set suspension strength %?

Im trying to build a big bertha like canon, Pistons are too slow to mimic a firing recoil, but a suspension with rotor head is really fast moving, so this script is perfect for the "firing retraction" sequence

but for "retraction" im looking to set suspension strength to say 2.5% and set -1.50 offset which should allow a slow extension back to original position

Is there a way to configure this script to control two sets of wheels with different suspension settings (e.g. One set down, the other set up)?

I love how simple this script is and it works so well. The only improvement that would be nice is if you had an Exclude option like in your inventory manager script. Your scripts make this game so much more fun. Great Job man.

Not really.. This script is dead simple and does not have any advanced features..

Dear Isy, I use a hover ATSR-4 SAVANNA and the structure of its suspension is such that you should not touch the wheel suspension on the rotors. You need to control the height of its suspension through a shock-absorbing suspension. Can your script ignore any specific wheel suspension? Subgrid support is encouraged.

Уважаемый Isy, я использую ховер ATSR-4 SAVANNA и строение его подвески таково, что не стоит трогать подвеску колес на роторах. Управлять высотой его подвески нужно через амортизирующую подвеску. Может ли ваш скрипт игнорировать какие-то конкретные подвески колес? Поддержка подсеток приветствуется.

Hmmm... makes me look stupid that I didn't thought about it that way, huh? =)
I see. It's just that your scripting is hardcore user friendly. Y'know? It's simple, compact, elegant. That's why I pushed the idea here. Maybe you find the time and inspiration - I'd imagine it's a rather niche case, why build Rovers when we could replace their role with another flying grid? I just like the feeling of "realistic" rovers. :Baserunner: Thx for replying, have a gr8 day.
