@navarone : you need WELD passenger seat and those three nobbly bits... :D
grab a welder and touch it :D

Seems a little janky? other than that it looks good!

the passenger side door is always open and doesnt seem to be a seat, theres big nobbly bits in front of the pilot side, and its hit/collision box is odd.

The look of this cockpit is amazing. This darn thing needs to become a vanilla cockpit.

Target. I know about that issue. Unfortunatelly I cannot do anything with it. That is experimental block. To fix that issue I have to redesign it as a whole. Currently I am on break from modding (5 years almost non stop burned me out), but I have halaf made successor of this block. No promises when I will release it (among other half and nearly finished mods)

Love the look of this but it wasn't airtight for me. Adding it to my ship didn't create a seal.

@darklordDLDL
Its a separate block: Look for Dual Cockpit HUD.
(at the moment of making that block, there wasn't possible to add transparent lcd into cockpits, or any other block outside LCD)

The LCD hanging down from the ceiling in front of the pilot seat has no config option in the control panel. How do I change what's on that LCD?

Kinda makes me think of the URSA cockpit from Star Citizen

@Archan79 Thanks for the reply. It's a shame that a one piece, two man cockpit doesn't seem to be possible for large grid craft. (A frigate sized cockpit would be awesome)
Archan79  [author] 25 May, 2024 @ 10:34am 
@Rubber Sword. Honestly it would be very hard. Issue is that technically it's 5 blocks. Base cockpit and spawned additional 4. it will be hard to do this with large block as one by one block is larger than whole cockpit. I am playing in my mind withsome ideas like large "frigate" cockpit 3 block wide, But I dont think that will be fruitfull.

@Archan79 A Dual Cockpit for large grid is sorely needed. Any chance of you producing one?

love the design cant wait to see the next ones too

Okay thanks for informing me on this matter, I will admit, I did not take the time to look into past responses to take note that this was a bounding box issue as you have stated and I appreciate your response and look forward to see what comes next with this mod.
Archan79  [author] 5 Apr, 2024 @ 4:08am 
@fenrir like I mentioned previously, there is problem with design itself (Character pose is overlapping with edge of bounding box). This cockpit will not be updated, but after finishing current project, I will return to my cockpit mod, and there will be additional dual cockpits, without this issue. Fixing that issue in this particular block would require total redesign. Sorry for that, but this cockpit is a pathfinder, so there are some issues that come with time.

On planets where there is little to no oxygen, this is not exactly sealed so it is not able to be pressurized.

wait it back wooot

Good to read. If you don't have time to update this one, it's OK, I will use it only on planets with atmosphere :selike:
I am impatient to see the new ones... :se:
Archan79  [author] 23 Mar, 2024 @ 5:15am 
I will test it. But if I recall corectly initially it was problem only with passenger seat, as character was placed ourside of bounds of seat itself. this is why i changed model from 4 block wide with block wide seat to 3/2 ratio.
I have maybe something wrong in definition itself after trying to solve it without changing model. if that issue is still not solved, I will not fix it, as this would require major overhaul of that model.
i am currently working in meantime on successor of that mod with MULTIPLE cockpits, some that are also 2 seaters, that will benefit from mutlipspawning, but also will be supported by animation engine (opening canopies, internal lights), and will support few other mods that ie allows for pressing buttons by players inside. but that will take some time.

this cockpit was created for specific custom start rover quite some time ago. this is why it got so specific formfactor. New cockpits will be way more... universal

Hi Archan79 :se:
it seems to me this cockpit is not pressurized. It works ok when outside has air (pressurized space station or "class M" planet) but in space, it does not work for me: I connected all 4 connectors to be sure but I can't manage to get air inside and I noticed the pilot seat has no air, no energy while the passenger has no air but has energy. FYI, I'm playing in survival mode. Is this the case ?
Archan79  [author] 29 Feb, 2024 @ 1:50pm 
@alfaOmega, I will mcheck, but important is that you should buy this cocpit leaving enough space to spawn second seat. it's 5 block wide: 3 blocks for main cockpit, 2 for seat. there should not be any other block in the way. Game itself don't support multiperson blocks. This cockpit is an "Hack, that spawn second seat, HUD and both lifghts as separate blocks.
AlfaOmega 29 Feb, 2024 @ 10:41am 
I try everything but nothing. Only one seat fits me, of course the entire cockpit, but when I click on any option, nothing happens. Even if I rebuild the cockpit.
AlfaOmega 29 Feb, 2024 @ 10:18am 
Please explain to me how adding things in the cockpit works? Because when I build it, there is only one seat. And I switch the rest, even if I click on them it does nothing.
AlfaOmega 29 Feb, 2024 @ 10:11am 
Hi, im trying use cocpit for two people, but not working switch to passenger seat...do anything....

I don't often comment on mods, but when I do... this is sublime.. I've been looking for this very type of thing for quite a while. The design, the features, the simplicity of selecting driver or passenger side. This is just amazing, thank you for creating this!
Archan79  [author] 27 Feb, 2024 @ 10:22am 
@Gromit Thank you. Currently I am working on successor of this mod, with multiple dual cockpits. It will take a while to finish tho as I am very detail oriented in that case
Gromit 27 Feb, 2024 @ 2:33am 
Just tested it, the design and embedded features are really good :selike:
Thanks a lot :se:
