Park not working + DAS reboot
Friend of mine on an MP server decided to put the DAS script on my large rover for stability sake. I'm not too familiar with it but he's installed most of the stuff. - For context, this rover is a Large Grid frame (wheels) with a Small Grid body, essentially wheels are on a subgrid.

I've managed to get it to work, essentially I can control the vehicle without having to use a remote block on the subgrid first, but for some reason it doesn't park, like, at all. Even though it says "Park Engaged"

Also the script likes to reboot occasionally, meaning I can lose control of my rover at any point.

Not sure if this is a new or old issue or is there any step I should 'revisit'?

Rebooting didn't happen anymore - The fix for the parking is to add a wheel to the main grid, this case, added a tiny wheel in the back so the script allows me to park :D

Hi. Glad you resolved the issue. Bug with parking when you have only subgrid wheels is old one, an comes from game optimisation. When main grid have no wheels "Parked" properly just doesn't get checked.
For info about reboots. It happens when grid is changed, i'e when something is added to it or removed (destroyed), It tracked by change in grid base mass (without cargo). Loss of single wheel is ignored, but loosing more than one wheel at once will also trigger reboot.

Appreciate the response, yeah I noticed that after a while, I think the rebooting was due to another ship being docked with mine, and me not realizing I needed to do the whole DAS_IGNORE custom data so it wouldn't mess with the script.
