confirmed that directional engines would be added to the game with dlc

@Timangust, use lua toolgun mod and barocraftables

Can you make it craftable? To craft it in mid-game?

there is good chance(github commit in dev repository) that rotateable engines would be added into vanilla, + combining turret with engine you will be able to rotate it in game with logic or periscope

this is cursed

I don't think I've checked it, with immersive repairs turned off, the engine works as it should (vertically), with it turned on, it works like a regular engine

It doesn't override the engine, why do you think it's not compatible?

is it possible to make it compatible with immersive repairs?

@VoidRunner Regalis released the first hotfix, game is now 1.8.7.0
Lua isn't updated yet
You don't have lua -> Vertical Engine -->>[LUA]<<-- doesn't work

its moving the sub sideways...

i was debating adding that to the question, mention ive trouble shooted and its NOT that lol

i also tested on the green scavenger, so its not user error

ive tried multiple different load orders

tested, works in sp and mp. your engine is probably too weak to carry your sub, read description pls there been like a too many different people that meet same issue with same solution: you need more power (engine power)

i'll try to fix it today

is this broken with "Calm Before the Storm" update? i cant get it to work, ill try the C# version maybe?

@WhiteKnight, there tags to make it push in only one direction, but without them engine will work in both directions.

As I understand it, the vertical engine does not push the boat down, only up?

awesome, so i can use this offline... the problem is i already have 2 engines and my Sub is so full like 98%

To match the horizontal speed the vertical only aux engine needs about 3-3.5x the power, signaled from the desired y velocity terminal output, but it works great and will be my new go-to for custom campaigns.

mod is working. buoyancy is the main trouble in using only engines. try adding more zeros to the max force before saying that mod dosent work on your 2000 ton vessel or/and adding ballast to it.
@The Seraph of Tomorrow, you probably installed lua uncorrectly, see how to install it on the mod's page.

Just came back to this game and it seems I can not get this mod to work, did an update break the mod? I tried using my old ship and the vertical function was not working, so I went ahead and downloaded the "Green Scavenger" again to make sure it wasn't something I was going wrong.

Even with the Savenger the engine that was suppose to be vertical only pushed the vessel forward or backwards. Lua is installed, and then Lua Vert right after it when testing this, so it doesn't seem like a mod issue since I tested this without any other mods.

Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated, as this mod is a critical part of an old vessel I made.

Seems like i'm not the first lunatic that connect vertical engine to X instead of Y and and complain about this mod not working lol

does not work. at least not when force is set by a memory component

tags a bit quirky, now you can use "vertical_" tag instead

@葬送の秀千代, ok im off to fix it

Now this mod is broken because the tag "vertical_engine" would be corrected to "vertical_", and "engine" typed to [default tags] automatically which cannot edit.
Perhaps set another tag(like "vertical_egn") as the prompt could be useful.

(Seriously, even I tag it "vertical_engineer", it's corrected to "vertical_er" and the part of "engine" gone.But such thing won't happen on other items.)

Doesn't work for me. I reinstalled both mods, cheked wires, tags, forse. Engines works like there is no mod at all - make horizontal speed depending on Y in navigation panel

Breaks when using Immersive Repairs

I figured out my problem, like a moron I had the engine wired to X instead of Y

Totally missed that, on me.

@The Seraph of Tomorrow, read description

@粉毛宇航员 Did you wire it to the horizontal instead of vertical out in the nav console?

try increasing engine power

I added a label to the engine, wired the engine and applied lua, but in the editor, the engine still has no vertical thrust. What did I do wrong?

@DrBruhman Yes , Is that any other settings needed?

@zakoforever do you have client-side lua for barotrauma installed?

@DrBruhman Still only produces horizontal thrust

@Mumfler-fumperdink Barogalactic is already have air thruster. You can use both mods if you want.

you also can check my shuttle in description

@zakoforever connect y_out from navterminal to set_force in engine. Don't forget to power it

Vertical speed output seems not working . Can you upload some pics about the wiring ?

even the developer does not know

Is this mod working correctly?

Установил барогалактик, но с теми тягами довольно проблемно возиться. Сегодня попробую установить ваши движки на ванильный корабль, так как они в вакууме не передвигаются толком. Отпишусь по результату экспериментов.

have you thought about getting in contact with the barogalactic dev to implement this into there mod?

THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOOORR

updated, readded particles and some minor formulas changes

非常好的引擎，使我的飞船旋转

@sullivas lemme know how it goes pls

Alright, time to throw this onto the space mod

This is a really cool mod, but im having way too much fun forcing people to fix the ballasts with a certain funny mod on ;)

Nice, fast Y
