all good not like your getting paid for this lol

Sorry guys ive been pretty busy and so it wasnt updated after they changed some of the space mechanics, i plan to sometime tho
Echoless 24 Aug, 2024 @ 4:27pm 
It was not
Hawkimport 6 Jul, 2024 @ 3:32pm 
was this ever updated?
Echoless 21 Mar, 2024 @ 7:57pm 
they changed a lot lol
AcePainter  [author] 21 Mar, 2024 @ 7:44pm 
did they really change that
Echoless 18 Mar, 2024 @ 8:06pm 
This really needs an update, very broken...
Echoless 15 Mar, 2024 @ 6:00pm 
Does this need updating since altitude on the sensors is now measured in meters?

thanks mane!!!! maybe i will, i was just so fed up with the astro sensor i personally had to do sum ab it lmao

You need to make more microcontroller, highest quality one I've seen! Much love, keep pioneering.

uhh it should be p easy to use, just connect a astronomy sensor to the composite input and the rest of the outputs should be labeled, did you need help with anything specifically?
SuperDude 30 Nov, 2023 @ 5:50pm 
could you make a tutorial?
Flames_901 16 Nov, 2023 @ 1:41pm 
idk if you have worked on this since, but you can get euler rotations from the physics sensor and tilt from the tilt sensor, you might be able to do something with that, as for me i am too dumb to make it work lol

An incredible neccesity, but Stormworks won't let me see in it my workshop... How annoying.
AcePainter  [author] 29 Oct, 2023 @ 1:23pm 
you figured out how to make that work? i tried with two sensors and it worked as a compass heading, but once they started tilting it threw off the output, so i was js kinda stumped after that
Sergo585 26 Oct, 2023 @ 6:15am 
It was typo 😂 actually you need 3 astro sensors
AcePainter  [author] 22 Oct, 2023 @ 3:21pm 
i updated it to add a calculation for general speed, so not just speed towards the moon but overall speed just like a linear speed sensor would output!! also yeah i rlly wanna get a compass heading type thing working using 2 offset astronomy sensors cuz thats definitely possible with a lotta math, but i js cant figure it out so far but we'll see :steamthis:
Sergo585 22 Oct, 2023 @ 10:22am 
Nice job, It would be awesome if it showed directional SPD (relative to vehicle) and Heading (possible by comparing 2 astronomy sensors)
AcePainter  [author] 18 Oct, 2023 @ 7:41pm 
thatll be pretty cool if you could get that to work fr
Renzo 18 Oct, 2023 @ 12:39pm 
it would work as gyros i belive work on the moon for stablizetion and the astranmy sensor would let you point it at earth then once in the earth atmosphere you could use all the other sensors reqired but the missile would not be a small little jet mounted one it would be more like a giant underground ballistic nuke or something due to the space (as in space for sensors and bombs not outerspace) and fuel reqirements
AcePainter  [author] 17 Oct, 2023 @ 6:43pm 
but if u do manage to get that working lmk :steamthumbsup::steamthumbsup:
AcePainter  [author] 17 Oct, 2023 @ 6:42pm 
uhhhh its maybe do able but like a buncha other sensors that youd prolly need for a missile like that dont work in space like the compass sensor, and also i think it would take a rlly long time for a missile from the moon to make it to earth and would need a lotta fuel but uhhh its maybe possible idk im not super sure ab how that would work
night warrior 17 Oct, 2023 @ 5:04pm 
i love this i am not asking for you to do this just wondering if it is possible for a missile from the moon to land on cords on the earth just want to know if i can make a moon death base
AcePainter  [author] 16 Oct, 2023 @ 9:32pm 
ay thanks bruh
Smasher 16 Oct, 2023 @ 7:42pm 
Nice work! Thanks for doing the math.
AcePainter  [author] 16 Oct, 2023 @ 5:51pm 
No math has been done to those, those are basically just the composite 1 2 and 3 channel from the sensor
AcePainter  [author] 16 Oct, 2023 @ 5:51pm 
yes the raw outputs are the raw X, Y, and Z of the astronomy sensor in space coords
Renzo 16 Oct, 2023 @ 1:36pm 
if so like the thing below could you do an autopilot that autopilots you to one of the mission space stations as they are hard to find and navigate to otherwise not auto docking but just to get within line of site of the space station and stop relative to the space station i would do it but you clearly have more experience with the game and the logic
Renzo 16 Oct, 2023 @ 12:44pm 
are the raw outputs the same as the space station mission cordantes
AcePainter  [author] 15 Oct, 2023 @ 12:04pm 
I been trying to do that but moon coordinates work weirdly so its not as easy as it sounds. also for some reason if you put a waypoint on the moon and then try to paste the coords into a keypad it doesnt work?? idk but im trying to make it work eventually
meloeh 15 Oct, 2023 @ 8:18am 
can you make a gps that can drive a rocket to the cords??
