Functional Mass Relay from the Mass Effect trilogy by Mike12312

Mass Relay from the Mass Effect trilogy.

Operates with gravity generators so any ship to use it needs at least one artifical mass block. Max acceleration I could see possible (without the chance of hitting the rotating rings) was around 355m/s but a vessel would be thrown to max speed before that point anyway.

SETUP GUIDE:

Seeing as this is a big ol' thing and it has rotating parts it wants to swing around a lot and that isn't helpful when you are trying to fly through it, so I've put in place a lock underneith the main body of the relay (2 images in the slide show).

The procedure is this (All words in " " are groups on the console):
1. Aim the relay to where you want it, through moving your mouse (The cockpit is ontop of the relay).
2. Open the console (K default) select "LG's" and make sure they are on "autolock".
3. On the console select "Clamps" and click reverse. Give them a few seconds to lock.
4.Now for everything else to get started up go onto "On/Off" and turn it on, takes a few seconds to get up to speed.

And if you ever want to move it just: Turn it off in the "On/Off" but when un-clamping it, firstly reverse the "Clamps" and the on "LG'S" turn off "Autolock" and then "Unlock", after a second for the landing gears to get clear turn on "Autolock" again, if it is not done this way there is a small chance the landing gears crush the station block used to lock the whole thing in place. The relay will now be free to be aimed elsewhere :)

A little side note, I had trouble with the console group "Rotation On/Off" at one point where every time I loaded my game it would select only one of the rings rotors and not all of them so if you want to make double-y sure it is going to work, select the group "Rotation On/Off", scroll down and make sure it has 3 rotors in its group.

I have left a little standard ship behind the relay with a couple of artificial mass generators so if you want to test it out, clamp and turn on the relay, go to the small ships console, turn on the artificial mass and fly through the relay, once you get to the mid point of the rings the gravity should take you from there.

Hope you all enjoy and feedback is greatly appreciated :)
