OK, I LOVE this.
and the fact it STILL works despite all keen updates is awesome!
My only question is can it be used with multiple connectors/docks?
(Dock at X with connector X, Dock at Y with connector Y?)
(ingot/ore transport)

Two questions:
Is it possible to make ship just land at desired location (like on platform without docking)?
Is it possible to use different connectors for different 'saves' (docking locations)?

To elaborate, I have a small subgrid with all my programs on it to save space for a droneship. I've dubbed it the 'AI Core'. The remote control is on the main grid with the thrusters, the program is on the 'AI Core'. Can this work in any regard? I've tried to put [dock] at the end of the RC's name but it still does not recognize it. Even after recompiling.

Can this be placed on a subgrid and still work without having some other script like Whip's Rotor Thrusters?

also would be nice if there was a way to use jump drives, like if distance greater than 40km and there is a jump drive on the grid select some coord. and jump. donno if this is even possible to do

would like to see a reduced speed on final approach after alignment ( i use a piston and merge block to dock and keep grids seperate.) [ as i approach a connector, a sensor extends a piston with a merge block on it, then if this script slows down the approach it would merge, and sensor does not detect subgrid, so it retracts till it is stopped by connector] lock the connector, and docked no damage(usually).

The rest of it works well enough. :steamfacepalm:

wanting to add, ( even though I thought it didn't need to be mentioned )
Switch lock on a connector also nothing..

Going to have to assume that aspect either does not work, or it simply does not work..
I know that sounds like the exact same thing, but it isn't.

How does one trigger the undock, even after adding "UndockDistance=50"
switch locking the connector does nothing
running the goto name simply redocks it
hitting stop argument.. nothing
making an undock run command.. nothing

heh, thanks :steamhappy:

on the ship

slow here: where do you place the remote control and programmable block? Base docking at or on the ship?
RikeiR 17 MAR 2019 a las 6:13 
If the aircraft cannot land soft by the docking computer, the landing gear will be broken.
RikeiR 16 MAR 2019 a las 19:58 
Which number should I correct to keep the distance so that the connectors don't collide?

Is there any way to tweak this to work where using a modded connector that has its "forward" face in the opposite direction? because I'm using the VCZ Airtight Connectors mod, and currently, it just rams the ship into the docking arm... :/

btw sometime gives me "script is too complex" when docked at base
Spartan 21 OCT 2018 a las 6:43 
being able to use a Timer at the end would be fantastic! Amazing script

Just a tip for auto-undock, just send the ship to another docking point ! :steamhappy:
Spite 17 SEP 2018 a las 12:53 
Would it be possible to add a timer block to start when completing docking? I'm a big fan of automation :D

No big deal if not, I can just use the refueler script, but you know, the less scripts per ship the better!

Fair enough, so long as I can run a shuttle back and forth between the earth and asteroid bases I'm happy, thanks!

It does use keen autopilot for most of the trip, and it's not very hydrogen friendly because it uses the keen autopilot which blasts the thrusters 24/7 while descending and ascending through the atmosphere.
Spite 17 SEP 2018 a las 6:49 
This seems to be just what I'm looking for!

Two quick questions though;

Does this use the Keen autopilot for most of the trip, then switch to the program for the precision parking at the end?

And how hydrogen friendly would the ascent/descent through atmosphere be?
ella the catgirl  [autor] 13 SEP 2018 a las 16:08 
If you enable the collision avoidance in your remote control then that will try to work around this stuff. but the default autopilot is kinda iffy.
Airomis 13 SEP 2018 a las 15:22 
will this work around player placed blocks, and roids?
Dots 13 SEP 2018 a las 12:02 
this needs a voiced video on how to use it because i think this would have a hoole bunch of good rating/usage .

It's just a name you pick. Like saving a file. You have a planet base you call it "planet" or something like that. Then you use that name to go to it. It doesn't have to match the name of the grid or anything (but it can if you want I guess)
TechGoblin 11 SEP 2018 a las 18:26 
Would the <dockname> be the name of the ship or station you're wanting to go to?
