Non-Controlling, First-Person Control Station

Description
Modifies the vanilla control station, to allow first-person view and disable ship control. Still provides full access to ship systems, but does not control thrusters or gyros. Like a passenger seat, except hostiles can't use it.

UPDATE 2015-06-27
* updated to include damage effects from vanilla block definition

UPDATE 2016-01-08
* updated construction cost to match changed vanilla cost

Could you please make a version from witch you can control a ship, but in first person view? I would LOVE that.

Can this be made to have working LCD's on it?

edit:
you need to place that folder inside the mods folder, so you can load it ingame ;-)
you can rename the folder what ever you want, no need to stay at those irritating numbers, but if you upload it dont forget to change the thumb.jpg and it will change to a unique number again! ;-)

@ronin:
it isnt that difficult to make what you requested by yourself!
1. just copy the id of this page and search for it in your mods folder.
2. open it via winrar, 7zip or any other archive program and extract its contents into a new folder.
3. you can open sbc files with every text editor (i recommend notepad++, the file format is xml ;-)
4. look what he does and compare it with the default code from the original (whereever you installed)Steam\SteamApps\common\SpaceEngineers\Content\Data \CubeBlocks.sbc, where you also find your pilot seat ;-)
5. copy needed code of the pilot seat and replace the control station in your mod folder - but remember to change uid (in this game subtype id) if you want a new block, but then you need to define it in the BlockCategories.sbc too! ;-)
- its rly not that hard and the worst thing that can happen is that it wont work - so happy try&error ;-)

Thanks for doing this mod. Sometimes the simplest mods make the game that much better. I'm a little surprised that Keen didn't add this already since it's just a checkbox to the K-Menu. Could you also do the Flight Seat? Being able to have a full view of a panel of LCDs and use the toolbar would reall fit into one of my builds.

If this still allowed hotbar control access it'd be perfect

Is there any way to make this mod work for Small Ship usage too?

maybe you could make it so that you can access things in your toolbar, that would be awesome!, cause im trying to make a brig on my ship, and i want to be able to NOT control the ship (gyros, thrusters ETC.) but still use things in my toolbar.

Separate mod, maybe? I might have to go ahead and rig one up, although it'll be interesting to see the comments on a mod that is exactly a vanilla block. ;-)
