AUTOPILOT CORE - Small Ship Version

Description
********************************************
******THIRDUPDATE IS HERE******
********************************************

Hello Everyone,

Welcome back to WiDOC's R&D Industries.

Today i'm really proud to present you my Ingame AUTOPILOT Script. I'm working really hard to make it simple and easy to use and install.

For installing this script, just copy the AUTOPILOT CORE on your ship (the programmable block with the script is included )

***********************************************
THIS IS STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS
***********************************************
I'm currently working a lot on making a friendly user program to set it up on every ship.
There is now the small ship and large ship version

This script allow you to
- GO STOP : Align and go to a waypoint and stop
- GO TO: Align and go to a waypoint without stoping
- WAIT an amount of second between two waypoint/order
- AUTO LAND
- AUTO DOCK
- ORBIT
- REPEAT your mission indefinitely
- Put more than one ship on the same mission safely

all that with a 0.2m to 2m of precision :)

***********************************************
INSTALLATION
***********************************************
I invite you to take a look at the video to see how this work and how to set this on your own ship.

but here is a reminding:

STEP 1- Copy the AUTOPILOT CORE module on your ship
OR
STEP 1 - Build your ship around the AUTOPILOT CORE
LINK FOR DOWNLOADING THE AUTOPILOT CORE :

(put an antenna if you want to see the instructions and the different control panels).

STEP 2 - Get into your ship and activate the timer block called RESET SHIP (with start)
Wait until it finished, it can be a bit long.

STEP 3 (Optionnal) - Rename any Connector on your ship if you have some.
Top Connector -> TPConnector
Bottom Connector -> BMConnector
Left Connector -> LTConnector
Right Connector -> RTConnector
Front Connector -> FTConnector
Back Connector -> BKConnector

STEP 4 - Sometimes, you have to start manually the Timer BLock called "Starter" to start everything. Just start it !

Your ship is ready. You can now create your mission thanks to the button furnished with the AUTOPILOT CORE.
You have to put them in your action bar and choose START for each one (!!not trigger now!!)

Enjoy !


***********************************************
NEXT FEATURES (in order of development)
***********************************************
- Correcting bugs (obviously)
- Avoiding object / ship / station / asteroid while travelling
- MINE
- Auto empty the cargo while docked to anything
- CUSTOM Action
- FIRE
- Your own ideas if you have some


Please vote for this project. The more vote there is, the more programming i'll surely do

:)

Thanks

if you could, would be epic! :)

well, i thought of taking this script from 0 again and make it work with the vanilla autopilot block ... but still lot of mission cannot be done with it so .... i dunno
Voldysnort 16 Feb, 2017 @ 8:03am 
Yeah i assumed so lol. Just tested on a MP server too, still the same :)
WiDOC  [author] 16 Feb, 2017 @ 7:49am 
well i checked that and .... my script doesnt work anymore. Like some stuff have changed in the API. oh god it's gonna be tuff to reengage this

Its not orbitting a planet, its orbiting a station. I've set the Orbit to the middle of my station, started the mission and it just flies off in 1 direction. Not sure how i can show it in action? :S
WiDOC  [author] 15 Feb, 2017 @ 11:03am 
are you sure it is not turning ? like never never ? because planets are so huge you probably didnt see it was actually turning. Anyway can you try to test it on a multiplayer server the next few days ?
Voldysnort 15 Feb, 2017 @ 9:35am 
Hey dude,

Don't suppose you've managed to have another look at this?

I'm more so interested in the orbit function. Despite numerous attempts to orbit, the ship just flys off in one direction.

and you have of course to take care of the gravity and increase the radius to a certain margin so you're sure to never go in
WiDOC  [author] 5 Feb, 2017 @ 11:58am 
yeah i mean, in some way you can already orbit around planet. if you know the coordinates of the center and you know the radius of it, then you simply have to change manually the order and it will work ;)
