LUA Interactive Map/Plotter (Autopilot)

Description

Fixed with v0.7.4 (hotpatch)!


Example ship
Multi-Purpose Speedboat [ADV]

Select a point on the attached screen and simply press "AP", this will switch over to the internal calculations and direct you to the desired destination.

Remember to attach inputs/outputs!
This is a subassembly, you must attach steering, throttle input/output and a permanent power source for this to work correctly.

Features;
* NEW: Added anti-stall option (clamps throttle output between 0.07 and 1)
* NEW: Added abort option, will abort on throttle or steering input
* NEW: Feedback connection, this allows addon modules to send an abort signal
* GPS, Battery and Compass bundled in package
* Adjustable acceleration sensitivity, set on microcontroller
* Simply point and press to select your destination
* Smoothed acceleration
* Throttle will progressively return to 0 as you approach destination (can be adjusted via sensitivity)
* Zoom (with smooth animation)
* Panning via edge button
* Automatically center on GPS when AP is enabled

Extra;
* This can be used on monitors of 2x2 or larger, connections are self explanatory.


Addons;
This chip now supports addons, the first is below
*Flight Addon

Note;
Navigation calculations are done when the screen is on, if you decide to use another screen, always keep the screen on!



Thanks!
This is only my second real workshop publish, feel free to give suggestions and i'll try my hardest to implement.

Don't know why, but i am trying to make it into an autopilot system for a car, but all it does is steers to the right and doesn't give any throttle out. I have everything connected (Throttle and steering in and out, touch from screen, GPS and compass heading). Please fix or help! But honestly the map feature is really great."

Just great! Possibly the best one arround. The only "but" is that it is missing a keyboard to enter vanilla map waypoints.

Useful kit mate, thanks for the time and work you put in. Any chance you can use your dark arts to make a RTH (return to home) feature, I know it's a big ask lol, basically a flight recorder that captures xyz data every couple of seconds and stores them to stream into an autopilot I guess.....beyond my current skill-set in this game at the moment anyways but a decent idea.
