Efficient Autogen

Description
Simple but efficient autogen controller, will idle engine while battery is full to save fuel.
As battery drains will slowly spool up RPS to predetermined property value

Plug and play, or fiddle with the options it's up to you.

Form factor: 2x3

How to

Hook Up / Controller I/O
RPS - Goes to Engine RPS (if multiple tied together on same pipe
just pick one of them)

Throttle Output - goes to engine

Battery - Current battery level

Starter - Engine Starter

Run - Hook up to toggle button to turn on generator(s)


Options

Max RPS
As The name implies you can set the max RPS of the engine.
Default is 20, can be set between 5-100

Idle RPS
What RPS the engine will idle at
Default 4, can be set between 4-100

Sensitivity
Determines how many % the battery can drain before engine is at max power
Default 3, can be set between 3-30

Starter Threshold
When RPS goes bellow this value starter engages if RUN input is active
Default 2.5, can be set between 0-5

Feel free to ask questions and I will do my best to answer

If you use this controller and upload your creation to the workshop credit would be greatly appreciated
