The Neptine Ship AI is the second AI developed by Cosmic Engineering. Neptine will manage several of your ship's functions, and add many options for new ones.

Setup:
To setup the Neptine Ship AI, simply name 1 gyroscope "Control Gyroscope", and have a cockpit, flight seat, or other ship controller marked as the Main Controller (Main Remote will not work for this). It is also suggested that you set the displays for the programmable block to text and images.
The Ship AI is now ready to roll! There are several upgrades to the Neptine AI over the Pluton AI. The previous AI model can be accessed here:

Unfortunately, the Glitched AI mode has been removed for the time being.

Better Alignment
There were some bugs present with the ship alignment with the previous model where rotational inputs would be misinterpreted by the program. These bugs have since been fixed.

Alarms
When enemies were detected on board by the previous AI, it would repeatedly try to set the light intervals and sound blocks such that they would cause issues within the game; the lights would rapidly flash on, and the warning wouldn't complete before it tried to play again. These issues have been resolved.

More useful Menus:
The command menu has been upgraded to show more information, including showing and updating target positions from your ship. Each list also automatically sorts based on its distance from your ship.

Better Autopilot - Relative Dampeners from a Distance:
The autopilot will now attempt to *not* crash into other ships and the planet. No guarantees though. Be careful at low altitudes.
The autopilot can also be disabled by re-selecting the entity you are already attempting to fly to.
Additionally, setting the target destination to an enemy ship will allow you to "Track" them, which sets relative dampeners to match their current speed.

Better Sensors:
Entity detection now makes use of cameras and raycasting, allowing you to retrieve data on targets up to 10 kM away! The max range can be customized.

Autolanding:
An autolanding feature has been implemented and can be accessed through the menu. As long as your velocity is above 5 m/s, it will allow your ship to freefall until it predicts a crash will occur soon, at which point it will slow until the crash is adequately delayed. Repeats until you are falling at 5 m/s.

AI Visual Displays:
The program display can now be set to other text panels, provided their names include "AI Visual Display". As with the Ship Status LCDs, putting "Transparent" in the name will adjust the colors accordingly.

Dynamic Scans:
Sensor scans now occur at a dynamic interval based on several factors, such as the presence of a person on-board your ship, the ship speed, ship proximity to other ships, and speed.

Autodisarm:
Your ship, on each scan, will check for warheads on board your ship, disarm them, and increase their countdown timer.

Better Thruster Management:
Your ship will no longer use thrusters not on the same grid as your cockpit.
The ship will no longer try to counteract gravity when docked, locked, or falling towards planets at 100 m/s or faster.

Better Gyroscope Mangement:
Your ship will automatically adjust your pitch when not being controlled and while cruise control is not on, so that you can better walk around the ship.
Gyroscope power is lowered based on your gyroscope:mass ratio, but not raised, which will help with precise movements on ships with a lot of gyroscopes.

AutoDoors:
The AI will automatically open doors containing a customizable name, set by default to "AutoDoor". The distance works better than using traditional sensor doors due to them taking into account your velocity. The ship velocity is also considered.
