Feedback & Ideas
---{ Feedback }---
I'm very interested to hear what you think of this script, the instructions published with it, and it's ease of use. Please let me know how you like it and what features it is lacking or that can be improved.

Here's a few questions I'm wondering about:
  • How easy was it to understand the setup and installation?
  • How easy was it to understand the advanced features?
  • How easy was the daily use of it on board your ships?

best script! nothing else about the script
you need to make one tutorial on youtube so people can use it more easy

i agree a tutorial and a world for noob scripters like me to see how its set up and used

Great script! Super Script, but I am with the others a detailed tutorial is needed at least for the advanced features.

Thanks for the suggestions guys! I plan to add more documentation with the next update of the script, hopefully today.

idk what i am missing but i can't get it to work...

@Lhama: Perhaps you could give a few more details?
Llama 28 Feb, 2015 @ 1:41pm 
yea..
i have been trying all the things in the tutorial, but it doesn't show up on the text panel

I have the same problem with nothing showing up on the text or lcd panels.
When you open the edit code window on the programmable block, there is no TEXTBLOCKSTATS written in the code anywhere I can see to change it to the name of the lcd panel to it displays to it. Lcd panel is named as follows- LCD Panel 8 [HM Liverpool | DISPLAY,VOL,OVERVIEW] - I cannot find where to put the name - LCD Panel 8 in the code ? Or is this wrong all together ?

Ah, I see. You don't need to modify the code at all other than the GRID_NAME at the top of the script. The rest is controlled only through the block names. Just have the script run once a second from a timer block.

Did you already do the 5 steps in the tutorial?

I don't know anything about TEXTBLOCKSTATS. Are your sure that isn't from another script?

i had trouble seting this up. but i found my problem was that the GRID_NAME has to be the ships unique label, then a space then the |. like so:
const string GRID_NAME = "MyShip |";
initialy i just set it to be = "MyShip"; which obviously doesnt work. hope this helps.

The space and pipe are optional. I just prefer to have them myself. If it is too confusing, I can just add them to the name for you. But then they'll be required.

I agree that a short Video or a ingame world with the script running would be helpful. How ever i love the way it works once set right

I'll see what I can do to demonstrate it.

I had a thought for an idea as you said you plan to make the script sort cargo also.
If you have not already thought about it, is it possible and not to much troubble to make it also stack items in the same cargo container.
Quite often you end up having more than one stack of items.

The thing is that i have made the GRID_NAME to be my ships name (and no i did not replace GRID_NAME with my ships name) and i have copy and pasted that [NAME I VOL, and more] and i changed the NAME to my ships name and i ran the program but it still wouldn't show up anything on my LCD Panel
