All remotes facing into the right direction...guess its not about the setup (I used that script like 30 times w/o problems...) has to be something about the wheels being on subgrids

Guess screenshots wont help, its a closed system. I've put remotes onto the wheel subgrids aswell for handbraking. Do they have to face the right direction aswell?

RC block orientation is correct? Maybe some screenshots would shine the light on the problem.

I know that...

" I've edited the Subgrid Wheels Name"
You need to make a group with these subgrid wheel and name the group, not the wheels itself. Maybe that is the issue.

Hi, I've got a huge problem with that script. I've used it many times and it always worked. For a new vehicle, which does have it's wheels on subgrids, this script does not work. It does not control the friction correctly. The vehicle starts to drift very easily and it doesn't break softly. (Yeah, I've edited the Subgrid Wheels Name). What can I do about it?

It's fine. No matter how much hinges, rotors and pistons separates grids, they still considered as a single construct. Only connector block separate constructs.

Having a tough time telling if the script is working on my mobile base rover, so I'm back to ask if anyone knows for sure if the DAS script Subgrid wheels need to be connected via a single connection. I have a 2 part hinge between the 2 segments to allow for better bumpy terrain control, but I wonder if that throws off the Script given the Main Grid is separated from the other wheels by 2 hinges. I would be very appreciative if i could get clarification and if I'm not just being a bit of a Dunce, maybe a fix for the situation.

i must of over looked that. ty

@[I.L]Methidox Script setup

Instructions? all i get is systems frailer

@Goblin Godaky, Something like 1511.

driving on bases feels sticky, what line number was the
baseFriction=100-35*Math.Abs(UserInput.AD);
on?

Unfortunately I'm very low on free time therefore I wouldn't dwell into any development. Maybe one day when things changes a little, but right now it's not even on horizon.

or even potentially a alternative option?

@Wanderer_308, would you open to making a secondary Script that is capable to handle this as an add on maybe?

ok, thx for the info

@kinngrimm, no, if dampeners are off then they're off. Only thing that ill still work is fall dampener, which will only reduce fall velocity to a safe value, and will engage only in last moment.

i am on a server where interial dampeners are disabled, could this script help with that?

@Dextrot, I think you can change this line:
baseFriction=100-35*Math.Abs(UserInput.AD);
to something like:
baseFriction=75-35*Math.Abs(UserInput.AD);
maybe play with the numbers here, idk which would work better. Maybe you even can do this:
baseFriction=(100-35*Math.Abs(UserInput.AD))*0.75;

@Vex, I thought about that but I think skid steering with not fit in PB symbol limit.

Is there a way to tell the script to never go over 75% friction? I keep having problems with almost flipping when it decides to set it to 100%

would there ever be a consideration to make one of the togglable settings to avoid steering and adapt a Skid Steering Option so we are able to use this Script in Conjunction with a Tank?

The most recent update added user control of propulsion while using a turret controller. When using this script the propulsion stops. When exiting the turret control it returns. Is there a workaround?

@Morphy The script treats wheels ahead of CoM as front, and behind of CoM as rear. And it does sets friction on front wheels lower compared to rear wheels when braking, it just seams it's not working good enough for your configuration, unfortunately.
There is no specific tag to turn it off, but you can just cut the block of code responsible for brakes overwrite and half-brakes altogether:
foreach(var suspension in WheelSuspensions)
{
if(suspension.Obj.IsAttached)
{
if(suspension.WheelPositionAgainstCoM.Z>0&&UserInput.WS!=0&&!RC.HandBrake)
suspension.Obj.Brake=false;
else
suspension.Obj.Brake=true;
}
}
if(BrakesSkipCycles>0) yield return true;

I was curious why breaking is applied to all wheels when there's no way to remove it from the front wheels. Reason being I've nearly rolled forward over a few times slamming on the breaks from high speeds (to avoid a sudden drop).

I've never intentionally used Half Breaking which would, to me, do the same plow and roll. Is there a tag I can put in the front wheels so the script won't overwrite the break toggle that I'm trying to set to "off"? (Yes, I know this would effectively remove all breaking if I used Half Breaking)

In a perfect world when breaking, the script should ramp up the friction on the wheels opposite the direction of movement: ie, to safely arrest forward movement, make the rear wheels sticky while the fronts loosen during breaking.

On that note, how does the script even determine where the wheels are when deciding on "rear" versus "front"?

@[RTB] Sarianos You can exclude gyros with DAS_IGNORE keyword put into gyro's Custom Data.

@Wanderer_308
Not sure if you're still supporting/developing this script but would it be possible to get an option to adjust the strength of the gyro steering assistance? as it stands it completely overrides the gyro power settings and seems to have no adjustment in the script, it appears to be applying gyro power dynamically however there are quite a few times where it just been far too much for a vehicle and I've had to remove almost all gyro's or just turn off the feature altogether, a tag to exempt gyro's would also be very handy.

@maxwindude the most basic and casual way is just past it to the programmable block (PB) via its edit window. The PB itself should be on the same grid as remote control (RC) block, an RC block should have proper orientation (up&front). More complex setup includes lights configuration, subgrid wheels control, block ignore tweaks etc are described at Script setup page.

How do I set up the script?

@Wanderer_308 Thank you very much for your time :) now everything works as it should.

@Joshuawood find and remove the line "ConnectorSubrtn.Update();"

@TiGeR you probably encountered an old bug where if main grid has no wheels the parking doesn't work. If you have wheels only on subgrid then try to add single wheel somewhere on the main grid.

@Umbral Draconix check ownership, recompile the script. It shouldn't be important where the RC block is placed. It just needs be actually connected to the grid.

How do i know if standby is on? and how do i turn off that feature?

I can't put things into the custom data on the connectors because it breaks another script!

Hello
I have my first sub-grid suspension, controlled by RC, everything works as it should except the parking option. The script seems to ignore this setting, which is a bit of a nuisance when you need to park on a hill. Maybe I missed something in the description?
Regards

Any idea why the script would be unable to see the remote control when it's attached to the top of the cab on the main grid?

Couldn't find any comments mentioning the Top Mounted Camera from the Automatons DLC, but I was curious so I figured I'd leave one after verifying that it does function as expected when mounted sideways and facing downward as a gravity alignment camera.

Thanks again to the author for this wonderful script!

Got it solved via workaround, disregard my question.

It may just be me being a bit dumb, but I can't seem to get my rear wheels connected with the script. The probable cause is the way they connect. I have a 2 part rover with a hinge connection. if i could get some help figuring this out I would be most appreciative. More details can be given if needed.

@Dozer Junkie, you need a timer block with a name like in the script settings. The RC block does not triggers anything as it only used as waypoints storage and orientation reference.

@Wanderer_308 I cannot get the RC to trigger even when reaching a waypoint, any suggestions on how i can make this work ?

Context: Dump truck getting loaded then travel to the dump, dump then travel back and wait

@Souls You may try to just turn it off. It has non-linear function and it already unrestrictive as possible.

@Wanderer_308 Yo, the adaptive steering is good usually, but a bit too strong on a recent build, is there any way to scale down it's influence?

Maybe a minimum turning angle? Or minimum turning circle radius?

@Wanderer_308 brilliant!
Thank You very much, I could not figure it out :)
Just now i noticed there is "Script setup page" sorry im clearly blind.
I was searching for something like this in description, googling it and even looking at the code itself while knowing nothing of SE scripting before asking...

I will add that Your Script is essential for Me each time i play, really great job!

@llukkassi TOGGLE_CRUISECONTROL argument for Run command.

@Wanderer_308 How to turn on Cruise control?

Well decided to change how I did the setup in the 1rst place and made a change using modajuster watching how the old wheel mount point mod that haven't been updated in age did it and just made the same change (used the vanilla not suspension wheels' value for the mount point so that the 2x2 are included) and gonna try to not use the rotor wheel mod to see if it change anything... And... Just double checked the setup guide and I thouth one of the modded block I used was considered a remote control but it was in the past but not anymore so... main grid didn't have a remote controle block so I guess that's my problem... Anyway needed to redo the suspension setup for more clearance...

So... I used this mod before and never got a problem, this time I try a new wheels combination (combining 2 suspension into a sub grid to put another suspension on it) it is stable and all no clang but the programmable block is saying no remote control block found, to try to figure out I basically put DAS_IGNORE on all suspension and all remote controler but to no avail... any idea what could be the problem?

Maybe you're using some moded LCD panels or moded PB block and it's not compatible with the script?

anyone ran into this?
