More Advanced Rotors

Survival ready with LOD`s and build stage(s)!

May I present to you my other first mod for Space Engineers, adding a few variants of the advanced rotor with better conveyor connections and the ability to clanglessly turn in a 1x1x1 space.
Only a conveyor at the bottom? Can`t turn in a 1x1x1 space, just go clang? Where dualhead rotor Keen?
This mod adresses all of these issues and gives you, the player, the blocks to handle any rotating situation.

Now some of you might be wondering why I create a half height gyroscope, because it really doesn`t have many specific use cases.

1. It can rotate fine in a single block of space, actually half a block even, the vanilla gyro needs a 3x3x2 block space.
   
2. It can be used, with my half height rotor, to build a compact steering system for vanilla guided missiles using the Custom Turret Controller block.
   
3. As part of an passive gun lane stabilization in a simmilar form to the afor mentioned guided missile. Guide

(I don`t know it there are any guides teaching about point 2 and 3 , so I might write them :)

All my blocks can be found in the "Eddo`s Blocks" tab.

Check out all of my mods!

Contents (Large and small grids) :

• Compact 1x1x1 advanced rotor with plenty of conveyor connections.
  
• Dualhead 1x1x1 advanced rotor, something I always missed.
  
• A half height advanced rotor, making for a perfect 1/2 block displacement.
  
• The mighty half height gyroscope, half as tall as a normal one, specially made to be used with the half heigth rotor.

Updates:
1.3:

• A new rotor, sized 2x1x1 which has his rotor offest off-axis to freely adjust the heads position within the stators width of 2 blocks ( -.25m to .25m relative to the center of the block)
  
• Additional small heads for the LG single and half height rotor to have the large heads placed without a default offest

1.2.1:

• Added BlockVariantGroups (The small + icon that allows you to scroll through all variations while using only 1 hotbar slot)
  
• Dualhead rotorheads for LG now uses a new "long head" icon to better differentiate from the SG exclusive variant

1.2:

• Slight changes to LG singlehead and half height rotors to make them work with small heads
  
• LG dualhead rotor got a new small rotorhead
  
• Reduced the size of all collision shapes to reduce Clang

1.1:

• Added large grid variants for all blocks.

Planned features:

• 2x2x1 variants of the rotor (stators and rotors). 2n x 2n heads do not seem possible at the moment.
  
• OR: Rotor variants that displace off-axis for greater flexibility. DONE

Current know issues/bugs:

• Some people had Clang releated issues, I hope this won`t happen anymore as I made the collision models a lot smaller.

Notes:

• Using the rotors is straigth foreward:)
  
• Tiny exeptions as of an update: Large grid singlehead and half height rotors spawn with 1m displacement to allow the Clang free use of small heads, you simply can adjust them back to fit as before. 1.3 "undid" this
