(DX11) Tractor Beam Landing Pad

Description
This mod allows you to pull a ship that is hovering over the pad down to ground level, the pad uses cells to power itself in survival. This fires a beam vertically from the block to 50m away. These can be placed in grids, but be warned more than 10 of these in a grid and you will be lagging when they are all on.

*Smaller ships are a bit more unstable when getting towed down to the ground.

*For best results try and get ship centered over the pad or make a grid large enough to cover whole ship.

To get this to function use these methods:

- set block to off, then set to shoot on. place a button panel and map a button to the on/off function.

- use same method as above and use a sensor instead to shut off the pad when a ship is in range of set distance from sensor.

- use same method as above, and set on/off in the hotbar in a control seat.
