Collection of UATC Compatible Vehicles

Description

Introducing a new standard named the Universal Aircraft Tug Connections (UATC). This standardized system is designed to facilitate the seamless connection between aircraft tugs and a wide range of commercial and military aircraft. The UATC system is built to be user-friendly ensuring that fellow creators can seamlessly adhere to the standard.

If you are making a UATC compatible creation please include the below code in your description

Specifications

Anything colored pink within the example is vital.

Controller

The controllers allow the front wheel of the aircraft to pivot in the direction the tug is pulling even when using a robotic pivot. Every UATC compatible creation needs to have a corresponding controller equip. Tug Controller - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3063276813 Towbar Controller - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3063273011 Aircraft Controller - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3063270230

Connector Placement

The Tug and Aircraft Connectors must be an Electrical Connector 3 blocks above the ground. Towbars must have a Electrical Connector on either end.

Pivot Placement

It's recommended that the Pivot looks like the picture below when in the vehicle editor.

The black arrow on top of the Pivot represents the direction of the front of the Vehicle editor.

Compass Placement

The Compass needs to be facing forward relative to the Vehicle

The direction can actually be reversed just use speed dial and when it goes in reverse u invert all the steering outputs, could actually be a thing to maybe change on the controller.

I don't mean to be rude, but I'm having a hard time understanding the purpose of this system, and if it is such a great standard, why isn't it implemented on your own planes you've published? The only tugs I've found to work with this system are forward tugs, not backwards tugs, which are the only important ones in my operations. Is the system supposed to make the planes nose gear follow the curve of the tug? if so I have not gotten that to work yet. Once again I really don't mean to rattle things, I'm just confused.
