Ship-Wide Resource Monitor

Description
SHIP-WIDE RESOURCE DISPLAY SYSTEM
Author: Steve "Steeveeo" Green

Gathers all storages and tallies their contents, which then
displays on any number of screens.

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Load onto a ship/station with storage blocks of any kind.
2. Place a timer that calls this block periodically (I recommend 1 - 3 seconds).
3. Place a timer that calls this block occasionally with argument "-r" (I recommend 1 minute).
This will recollate all connected storages an screens.
4. Place pairs of non-wide LCD screens around the ship.
5. Name the left screen(s) "Resource Panel Left" along with any unique identifier.
6. Do the above for the right screen(s) with the name "Resource Panel Right".

FEATURES:
- To manually recollate connected storages and screens, simply run the script with argument "-r".
- Any new screen named as per the instructions will display the proper data, as long as the script
is occasionally run with "-r".

VERSION:
1.0.8

Script should now work properly on the Economy Update version of SE.

"Program(239,53): Error: There is no argument given that corresponds to the required formal parameters 'items' of 'IMyInventory.GetItems(List<MyInventoryItem>, Func<MyInventoryItem,bool>)'
Program(135,34): Error: The type or member 'string MyObjectBuilder_Base.SubtypeName' is prohibited
It doesn't want to run anymore

Thanks for the feedback, hoangandpaid. To be honest, I'm surprised this thing still works after 2 years of SE updates. :D

Alright, Aurorae and Dicerson, the fixes are in place. I can't remember if SE auto-downloads updates for scripts or not, so check the version number on your files and see if it matches the current description.

Thanks for the comments, guys, I'll get those fixed in the next update. Expect it tomorrow since I'm currently playing with my brother. ;)

A few critiques:

The right panel is very hard to read, I recommend setting it to r-0, g-124, b-256 to make it lighter.

Also, you say to use "Resource Screen Left/Right" but your script is searching for "Resource Panel Left/Right". Thus, naming your LCDs "Resource Screen Left" or "Resource Screen Right" doesn't actualy do anything.

Unsure why, but this doesn't work. I followed the instruction, the code is in the block, I have 1 pair of LCD's named Resource Screen Left and Resource Screen Right, respectively, One timer that calls with default argument every 3 seconds, and another that calls with "-r" every 1:02 (Also tried -r, without quotes).
