Not sure. Probably by the file name, which is: 'FDF-Chopper A1' and 'FDF-Chopper B1'.

do you know what the console command name would be to spawn one of these?

Just tested it on FDF-Eternity and FDF-Vortex, and it recharges fine. Just make sure to activate the docking port control feature on them for it to function properly.

It appears to be not a Shuttle problem, but a FDF-Eternity or FDF-Vortex problem.
Docking another submarine on Steam to the mothership will recharge it well.

I also activated the bottom docking port power lever on the terminal, but charging does not work.

Thanks for answering my questions! Regarding the bots: The issue I've seen with the bots has to do with navigate back out of the submarine, even when hatches are opened the bots seem unable to climb the ladder back into the Vortex. (This is why I think having the shuttle pre-attached to the Vortex and simply having 2 editions of the Votrex for the sake of the two shuttle variatons, would be the best way of ensuring bots can navigate the vessel properly).

On Vortex, You'll need to ensure that the batteries are turned ON and have some charge in them. Then select the appropriate docking port to output power (red for power out and green for power in). Once you've done that, the shuttle should be able to recharge properly.

About the issues with bots, there may be some issues with the waypoints (AI uses them for navigation) that I am unaware of. I'll take a look at it. However, bots can't interact with buttons, so you have to open the hatches for them if that's the part where you encounter the problem.

To your last response though, I haven't changed the wiring you had done, I simply attached the shuttle to the Vortex mother ship so I am unsure as to why the shuttle won't recharge... Is this something you can fix on your end or is it something I have to change myself?
CybeR 3 May, 2023 @ 3:21pm 
Have you experience any issues with the bots yourself? They seem to be unable to navigate back out of the shuttle once they've entered to make a repair...
Vootfer  [author] 3 May, 2023 @ 11:18am 
It is possible that your "mother ship" docking port is not currently connected to a power source, which could explain why the shuttle is unable to charge.

The shuttle no longer charges when attached to the docking station on the mothership... The bots also get stuck in the shuttle quite often

sure

This is the best shuttle I've seen. Could you make the periscope default to the front gun? I don't think people that use this shuttle for the first time will know how to switch guns.

You need to attach them to docking ports in the editor.

There's nothing to fix, but fine I'll change it. In the end, practicality is above all else, right?
Volcano2207 1 Apr, 2023 @ 2:06pm 
if i set this as a respawn shuttle it just sinks due to having power off by default can you fix this?

Thank you! This is one of my favorites 😍
Vootfer  [author] 11 Mar, 2023 @ 10:59pm 
Sure
Kyrox 11 Mar, 2023 @ 6:13pm 
Can I request a version with chainguns?

It doesnt have power when you spawn it, just wont turn on and it also just continuously goes upwards.
V.Nikers71 9 Aug, 2022 @ 6:43am 
nice
Vootfer  [author] 9 Aug, 2022 @ 6:41am 
Yes
V.Nikers71 9 Aug, 2022 @ 6:39am 
Could this be used as a respawn shuttle?
Vootfer  [author] 25 May, 2022 @ 11:52pm 
@Revan9
You need to attach it to a docking port in the editor.
9Revan9 25 May, 2022 @ 11:27pm 
This looks awesome but I'm not familial with how to get shuttles. Do i need a sub with a lower docking port and then buy shuttles from the sub upgrade npc or do I need to add it to a sub in the editor?

Awesome
