Formation System - Leader

Note: This project has been abandoned and will no longer receive updates.

This is the leader script for my formation system. These scripts together allow you to set a ship to follow another in a specific position relative to the leader.

For best performance, the follower ships should have the same or more maneuverability than the leader ship.

A remote control block on both the follower ship and the leader ship that points forward.
A radio antenna on both the follower ship and the leader ship.
Thrusters in all directions and enough fuel/power for all the thrusters.
Read the settings in the scripts.

Commands can be run in the follower script argument box or you can transmit a command to the system by using the leader script argument box.
<id> - Replace this with the follower id that you want to transmit to, no brackets are required in the command. You can leave this blank to transmit to all followers, or use the id of a specific follower.

• <id>:setoffset;x;y;z - sets the offset variable to this value
  
• <id>:addoffset;x;y;z - adds these values to the current offset
  
• <id>:stop - stops the script and releases control to you
  
• <id>:start - starts the script after a stop command
  
• <id>:starthere - starts the script and sets the offset to the current position.
  
• <id>:reset - resets the offset and the default configuration to the default offset.
  
• <id>:clear - forces the script to forget a previous leader when calculateMissingTicks is true
  
• <id>:save(;name) - saves the offset to the specified configuration.
  
• <id>:savehere(;name) - saves the current position to the specified configuration.
  
• <id>:load;name - loads the offset from the configuration
  
  
• scan - scans forward using cameras to set which ship is the leader ship
  
• find;name - scans the sensors using ship name to set which ship is the leader ship (Requires the target ship to be an ally)
  
• stop - stops the script from broadcasting leader data
  
• start - resumes broadcasting data after a stop command
  
• reset - sets the leader ship to be the current ship (if allowFollowSelf is enabled)
