Tank turret Controller

An Advanced microcontroller made for armed turrets. Aimed by keyboard, and made to be used with cameras and monitors. It is modular, to account for cannon type, if it has an auto loader and easy to limit the cannon elevation.

Features:
- Reload speed for simple loaders or turret mounted auto loaders, with timings based on gun type.
- For Turret mounted auto loaders, a switch to automatically reset the gun position for reloading.
- Easy to set clamp for gun elevation (property in degrees).
- 5 Levels of camera zoom.
- Turret rotation and gun elevation speed based on zoom level.
- Gun reticle on screen.
- The gunner's camera pivots up and down with the gun elevation → the gunner's camera can be separate from the gun elevation piece.
- Gun Range setting from 100 m to 2000 m (default range is set to 100 m).
- Night mode, to change the UI from black text to white text.
- Radio range finder (to know the distance but it does not automatically range to that distance).
- Screen UI: - Reticle.
- Zoom level (first number).
- Ranging, the number showed represents range/100.
- Distance to target (only visible if it detects a target that is over 100 m away).
- Day/Night mode.

Update:
- Added turret rotation clamp (property in degrees).
- Added switch for hull mounted auto loaders, it resets the current turret rotation to 0 when the gun is not loaded and it has ammo to load (does not work with turret mounted auto loaders).
- Now when the gun is not loaded, the aiming reticle is larger (useful for tanks with manual loading).
- Added reload timer.
- Added an option for key or mouse aim
- Adjusted the UI text
- On 1x1 monitors, the UI is adjusted:
- The target range is moved to the bottom left.
- The reload timer is not displayed

Controls:
- W/S: Gun elevation control.
- A/D: Turret rotation control.
- ←/→: Zoom level.
-↑/↓: Gun Range setting.
-Key 6: Day/Night mode (same key can be used directly from gunner's seat to the camera for NV).
*- For radio target distance, any input can be used directly from the gunner's seat.

IMPORTANT:
-All slider settings of the gunner's seat have to be set to 100% sensitivity and to "Reset".
-If you are using a velocity pivor, set the gear ration to 1:32.


-Note:

This MC is the result of all that I have learned so far from making lesser MC (with gun elevation clamp, auto loader setting, but mouse aimed), and from the project of a friend (he helped me with correcting the LUA code, because I am a noob at coding).
