Black Box for LFS [ENTITY]

Description
Flight Data Recorder (FDR) is an device used to record specific aircraft performance parameters. The purpose of an FDR is to collect and record data from a variety of aircraft sensors onto a medium designed to survive an accident.

Find out how & why your friend's or your aircraft has crashed, simply weld it onto an LFS vehicle and it begins to track the events such as starting the aircraft up or it taking damage. Press the +use key on the small panel to view the logs, press anywhere else to pick it up.

This was meant to be in an Entity pack called Aircraft Utilities, but its not been developed yet.

Findable under Entities Tab-->Other-->Flight Data Recorder

Features:
-Tracks altitude, KP/H, damage taken, missing rotor, engine status, Pilot entering & leaving
-Easy to use
-Eraseable memory
-Flashing beacon upon crash
-Can be tracked via EP2 Radar
-Realism

Plans:
-Make data only wipeable at a certain location or by another entity
-Make its data disappear when heavily damaged
-Have some sort of time medium displayed on a log entry

Doesn't work with WAC at the moment, but who even still uses that...

@Xenon Wtf was that the black box for an actual plane?
Xenon 12 Jun, 2023 @ 7:25pm 
can you please do as in this video the right information board and the front information about how the plane is spinning https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_0JhnMLwcU

if you (somehow) can, could you add SW base aircraft support? they have alot of aircraft which i and probably other people use here and id be cool to have this addon working with those

It's possible, but then again I'm just theorizing about this since it's happened to me too once or twice

@Mantha This is just a suggestion but I'm not a coder so the hell do I know, but your issue here could possibly be caused by the hitregs of the aircraft, possibly stating the projectile itself did 0 damage, but hitregs also counted the bullet as 33 damage

ALSO also (sorry for the spam, these thoughts keep coming separately) I'd like to suggest the black box tracks landing gear being raised/lowered, and weapons being fired.

Also a bug I noticed- when the host plane takes damage (at least from handheld SWEPs, I used a TFA rifle), the log says:
"Took 0 Damage
Took 33 Damage"

I only fired a single shot, yet it seems to register two instances of damage being taken, the first one always being 0, before the second one with the actual value is listed. I tested this several times.
