Fast Artificial Horizon 30 FPS!

Description
Phoenix Manufacturing has returned!

Is the ROS Cockpit horizon indicator too slow for you? Have you experienced loss of your vehicle performing acrobatic maneuvers because the display didn't update fast enough?

Well, we have a solution for you!

Phoenix Manufacturing is now a subsidiary of Gwindalmir Engineering.
With this refresh comes a refreshing outlook on the state of Space Engineering.

The first fruits to come from this is a new and improved cockpit computer!

Past are the days of slow, agonizing display updates. Now enjoy real-time display information at up to a whopping 30 FPS!

Presenting, the FIRST, and ONLY LCD script that updates faster than 6 FPS!

How to use?
  1. Install this mod
  2. Select "Artificial Horizon" LCD script in your cockpit display (if not already set)
  3. Be a daredevil again!
  4. ???
  5. Profit!

Notes
This is a vanilla replacement. This means the existing script will be replaced with this one. There's nothing extra you need to do to take advantage of faster speeds.

Included scripts:
  • Artificial Horizon - 30 FPS
  • Velocity - 30 FPS
  • Gravity - 15 FPS

Performance
Current performance tests indicate no significant difference in performance between this and the vanilla script. Additionally, the extra processing is solely on the client-side. There is no server-side impact.

The amount of FPS you will see depends on your system, and how many active LCDs are running. The FPS will cap out at 30 for performance reasons.

The Artificial Horizon and Velocity scripts will reduce updates to 1 FPS if the ship isn't moving or rotating at all (idle). This will help alleviate any performance concerns on clients with many LCDs.

TODO
Add more vanilla scripts for faster updating.
The Energy and Hydrogen script cannot as of yet be recreated properly in a mod.

Modifications/Redistributing
This workshop item cannot be redistributed without explicit permission.
This item is not authorized for posting on Steam, except under the Steam account named Gwindalmir.

Whenever possible, I would prefer to make sensible modifications to the original mod, as opposed to having others copy mine. Please ask if there's something you wish to customize. That said, since this is intended as a vanilla replacement, I do not plan to do a lot of extra work beyond the vanilla experience.

Bugs?
The best place to reach out to me is on Keen's Discord:

I don't read the workshop comments regularly.

I don't know how, I don't know why, but this has been corrupting worlds, stopping blueprints from pasting, making all forms of rotor dicey and corrupting of worlds and blueprints, basically giving me unending headaches for a year. This is worse than simply not working anymore, this damages the game itself.

Was playing with the game until yesterday without a problem, today it made my game have a message telling my world was corrupt after a bug report and deleting lots of mods finally this one is the only one causing the problem. no idea why as i don't think anything changed in the game nor in the mod...

This mod breaks the game, especially the scenarios.
Normal survival games just get laggy for me.

Great mod! I was so impressed by how much i liked it once i found it. Sadly at the moment this is not working. Saved blueprints with this active on a screen can not be loaded as well as the issue that some saves show up corrupted if this mode is active.

Causing saved games to corrupt after the new patch today.

Nice job! I was hoping someone could do something like this! Thanks, @Gwindalmir!

It seems that the mod is working again, at least on my end it is. I think that it might have been a problem with an update that Keen released, and then patched since then.

Is there like a script or something someone can send me about the crash?
I have never seen a crash in this, but I don't use PB scripts either.

Crashes the game when I enter K menu.
