I didn't think about only 1 limit... I'm pretty rusty as I haven't played the game for a long time and came back recently to it :p
Well do what you think is the best for the mod as long as it don't crash/lag the game i'm ok with it :p

It might work to set only a limit for the upper or the lower limit. When 1 limit is set, it will remember how many rotation/degrees it has done.

An optional return home speed option should be possible without creating conflicts.

For a direction option, it is more complicated than it sounds, at least when it should avoid running into loops. I have to think about it a bit more. Maybe an optional preferred direction option is a compromise. For situations where the home position could not be reached using the preferred direction, it will fall back to the default logic.

Well... for limits the problem is the rotating part is making full turns... Well it's your choice to add or not settings, i'll do with how it is for now :p

@Titan Nya
I'm not convinced about adding new settings — yet, but I will think about it.
You should be able to archive the desired direction by adding rotor limits. I believe I did it so it will respect rotor limits for its calculation of the return direction.

ok as other comment said about timer, need to check as my quick test was with rotors off and other rotor on, but I'd like if you could have a setting for return speed and return direction, I'm trying to have a ship with 2 rotating part in opposite direction and having a return to home then landing... Haven't finished the ship yet as my quick test about the unfinished rotating part are already quite heavy (torque on the ship) and hit some of other armor block (probably cause it's slope hitting an empty (for now) spot... I ran out of inspiration for today to continue working of this design and need to calculate how much of the things i need but so far this mod is great!

Das ist seltsam, im neuen Savegame wo ich potenzielle Mods hinzugefügt habe, macht der keine Probleme.

VCZ Elevator v2.0 ist der Übeltäter.
Hier werden TerminalControls ausgeblendet. Wenn ich das richtig sehe versucht der Mod Author eigentlich nur seine Blocks anzupassen, aber es betrifft auch die anderen Mods.

Ich werde das in meiner Mod nicht fixen können.

Habs jetzt mehrere Stunden versucht aber nichts gefunden. Hier mal die Welt https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3201986546
Wäre wirklich dankbar für Hilfe

Alle mods die neue TerminalControls (Buttons, slider, switches, checkboxen, etc) hinzufügen oder entfernen.
Du kannst auch gerne neue Welt hochladen, dann kann ich mir das selber anschauen.

Ich habe jetzt einen neuen Spielstand angelegt mit Rotor return home als erstes und nach und nach evtl. mögliche Mods hinzugefügt. Ohne Erfolg.
Was fällt den alles unter Terminalsteuerung ngenau?
