Fokeys 100m Advanced Rotors

Description
Simple mod that adds a version of the regular large advanced rotor that can extend to up to 100m without messing with standard rotors.

Block known as: Fokeys Advanced Distance Rotor

Especially made to enable building of ship orbiting platforms/pods

Known issues:
1.) does not appear in "all blocks" and needs to be searched
2.) too fast/large change in rotor displacement will detach the rotor head, do it with caution or you will have to add a new rotor head
3.) i ran out of beer plz help!
4.) know how to fix issues = 0, yell code correction at me and i will update

Special thanks to Digi for hinting me in the right direction on how to make it work and to Schwarzengel for creating a ship that made me make a mod to make it work again (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=897628879 dat thing is hot)

plz suprise me with good looking ships

ok i had said it would not show up in the build menu on its own and would be needed to be searched with the search bar, i dont really have an idea on how to make it nice like any other mods i just modified some code to make it work enough to fullfill its purpose (making detatched formation pods work again), feel free to try to edit it and call it your own, i don't insist to be mentioned as a source

it basically looks like a separate rotor, if you place it you will have to add a new rotor head once you moove the distance, it is bugy, i did not really look into it since i made it what was ages ago, it was basic file editing so it shouldn't have a lot of compatibility issues

100m, i am not claiming what i can't keep
image ones where at a short setting so i could still get that thing in a understandable size
oh and thy digi, i'll try to implement that (ok for you if i look it up out of one of your mods ?)

You need to create a variants group for it to show up in all blocks, see BlockVariantGroups.sbc and make sure you don't overwrite any vanilla ones. Oh also, if you have largegrid blocks then in the group it must be listed first.

The image looks more like 10m than 100m :P

100 m ? or 100 mm?
