the VTOL script is broken, however, you can easily fix it with this script(if it's the same, then updating the script)

anyway i'm gone now, nice craft

Simple. Projectors won’t work with rotors.

Quick question, how come the projector won't project anything past the advanced rotor for the wings? First time using a blueprint..

it works fine, you just have to be in a script activated world and then activate the script with the indicated buttons.

i've just tried it but none of it seems to work

It doesn't work for me

maybe I am just retarded but I am having trouble getting it to move

Hahaha ok cool. If you line this ship, check out the Condor VTOL from my workshop ;)

Fixed it. Apparently the O2 generator can accommodate 3 more hydrogen thrusters, attached to the bottom of the large conveyor junction. Also stuck 2 more reactors in and 4 atmospheric thrusters for hover. No more falling out of the sky.

I am aware, but I'm afraid I cannot help it much. The programming is done by 1wsx10 for the Vector Thrust script, and is just asking you for a target m/s^2. so if you are going at 100 m/s and have set maximung thrust, it will turn the engines the other way and not care about you falling out of the sky because the script wants to counter the lateral movement.
And yes the script checks if a player is inside the ship to save server performance.

I did discover something of a problem, though. If you're traveling at high speed in gravity and try to stop, it tends to drop out of the sky like a stone. It might need some dedicated lift engines to supplement the directional thrust. Also, if you get out of the cockpit, the directional thrust stops and the aircraft just drops.

Thanks :3

Love it. This thing is absolutely brilliant. Yet another example of why you're my favorite designer. I was getting some sparks from the rotors, though. They went away after I increased displacement to maximum.

hahahaha TheLastEngineer, the game accepts about 20 of these now. if not more.

1: the oxygen generators are able to operate the thrusters.
2: that depends. If the game can handle two rotors you should be fine.

few questions how does it fly with hydrogen with no hydrogen tank and is it Multiplayer frendly because of the rotors?

what is the ship in the back it looks awsome and i would love to test

Sent a friend req, would like to talk about builds of yours like this :)

Great build as always, Horx.

I answered my own question my SE screwed up, I tried it a third time and it worked!!! thanks for and awesome build

I tried to build this blueprint last night and the main engines where not there when complete, but did not say any mod was missing. did you use a mod for the main engines or did my SE screw up?

That depends: There are 3 oxygen generators on board, the should be capable of sustaining the 6 small h2 thrusters. With those 3 medium containers you could store a lot of ice on the ship, reaching a good endurance.

How long does the fuel last in survival?

tks， it's work, by the way What parameters should I specify when starting?

Recompile script, restart script and start engines with ‚1‘ and ‚2‘.

Why, when I started the programming module, the system turned off the ion propeller of the vector propeller, and the spacecraft could not move forward and back.

oh just found it :)

Now we need a dropship that uses this.

@Kam: That is likely to happen if the engines arent aligned to the center of mass. Usually a push of 'w' and 's' or also a recompile of the script resolves the problem with correctly aligned ships.

now all it needs is whip's salvo script...

Yeah, the ship just started to fly backwards and up endlessly lol

I am pretty sure, that the hover engine will fuck up the behavior of the main engines, because the Vector Script will try to correct the acceleration that the hover engine causes as it is no direct input from the user.

The same spasmatic behaviour can be ovserved when you add any engines pointing downwards to the ship (With activated dampeners of course) which will try to correct the planets gravitational forces. The Vector Thrust Script then trys to correct the correction of the planet G-Forces and well..
Short: It won't work, I guess.

Thanks! I wonder too what kind of effect adding one of those new hover engines to this would be (in terms of faster drop-offs/landings)

Reactors are between the turrets and the main engines. There is space for a jump start reactor right beneath the small cargo containers behind the cockpit. I didn’t want to add a mandatory jumpstart reactor, but you can add one any time.

Where are the reactors on it? Bit annoying to try and 'jumpstart' it... might add a solar panel to it or something..

Oh cool thank you!!!!!

Do it!

Um would you mind if I was to use this in some of ships cause I'm bad at making small ship blocked ships. I would of course give the proper link and credit of who really made it.

This is really cool

Very impressive

awesome, thanks

Sure! Glad you like it ;)

mind if i steal one of these screenshots? ill give credit ofc

this is awesome, glad to see what people can do with it!

Well well... if you build anything relying on rotors, remember that rotor heads are damn fragile. The small grid advanced rotor head detaches after 4 (four!) rifle hits. I updated the blueprint with additional heavy armor on the main engines because of that. Oh, and I probably should add parachutes.

You're back in the competition :D
Really well made VTOL, I'll need to remake my gunship with Vector Thrust sometime soon.

Thank you very much guys, had a blast building this ship. And it really means something to me that you know and appreciate my builds in this game.

I really can recommend you to download and try 1wsx10‘s Vector Thrust Script and play around with it. The possibilities are endless!

yeh your build's insipred me to become a better at building back in my early day's good to see a modern build from you thats well desinged just when you think your geting good at building some one makes something mind blowing then you realise you have a long way to go.

Nice to see more great designs from a master. Your UNSC ships were the first ones I built over 3 years ago on my 1st mp server ;-))

this looks cool got to check it out in game.
