Rotating Ship Constructor

NOTICE: Credit should be given to Keen and the original creator of this design. I got inspired to do this by one of the videos that are shown on the main menu.

This script is inspired with the design shown in the main menu of Space Engineers in mind and is designed to be almost fully automated and finish building your small ship within minutes.

Version: 1.3.0


New Additions:

• V 1.3.0: Added player safety mechanism (can be disabled)
  
• Rotor now takes the shortest path to rest when the job is finished.
  
• Updated a new default sensor range value since there's no longer a minimum sensor range. (check for surroundSensorExtent)
  
• V 1.2.0: Added timer support (see below for more info)
  
• Added emergency stop commands and more error handling (like when the equipment fails)
  
• Added LCD support on the programmable block's screen (if the programmable block supports it)
  
• V1.1.1: multipiston arm support (now you can stack multiple pistons to make bigger builds)
  
• Now, optionally, puts batteries on the constructed ship on recharge as well as turning off the ship's thrusters. (this will only affect the ship being built by the RSC)
  
• Added multiple LCD support. (Just add to the group that this script already uses)
  
• Please read the documentation below regarding these updates.

The guide on how to set up this script has been moved to another page (I hit the character limit here): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2157087512


SIDENOTE: An unintentional feature is that this script can toggle dummy08's Build and Repair Tool (mod) as one of the welders.
