Description
To Setup:
Connect "Toggle Up/Down" input node on the controller to a toggle button.
Connect "Is Mag-All Connected" input node on the controller to the "Connected" output node on a Mag-all.
Connect "Cable Length of Winch" input node on the controller to the "Cable Length" output node on a winch.
Connect "Cable Up" and "Cable Down" output nodes on the controller to their respective input nodes on a winch.
Connect "Magnet Toggle" output node on the controller to "Magnet Toggle" input node on a Mag-all

Parameters:
Cable Resting Length: Length of the Cable when the Anchor is up
Deadzone: Cable length before which the mag-all will not be on. Eg if Deadzone is set to 3, the mag-all will not turn on until the winch unwinds 3.1m. Set this high enough to prevent the mag all attaching to your own hull, but low enough so it grabs the ocean floor once it has cleared your hull.

Note Mag-All Connected and Mag-All Connect signals MUST BE sent through the winch

Everything of mine that isn't a collab is free to use and re-upload, credit is appreciated but not necessary. Enjoy!

it should stop doing that automatically, ensure the connected signal is getting to the MC, it needs to be run into the cable anchor and out the winch

Is there a way to make it so the winch will stop letting out cable once the magnet connects to something?

Works great, using this for a deep sea anchor that hides under a sealed door, able to have it open the door when up or down is on for the MC and lock the door when its closed so Im happy to see logic work out super easy in this case to add things onto it
