@Bwad34 ;D no worries. In the same vein of VTOL, maybe you could try making the snow speeder from Star Wars? If you do the design I could write the Vizzy to make it hover.
@Bwad34 I'm with you. I've lost multiple crafts and Vizzy programs and each time I have to take a break to get back into it. An autosave feature would be so nice, especially on mobile where the app restart rules are a bit random.
I couldn't find a suggestion for this in the forums, so I went ahead and created one HERE.
Hi @Bwad34, and welcome-ish to SR2. Surprisingly, nobody as far as I can tell has replicated the VTOL Quinjet from Avengers movies. If you could create a decent replica that would be very cool. If you decide to go for it, make sure you post the link here so I can download, upvote, and mess around with it.
No problem @Bwad34 , it’s your creation! Glad it works and glad I could help. I enjoy the Vizzy stuff, so let me know if you have other questions/problems.
One other thing: it looks like you got upvote points because your craft was the basis of mine. That’s how it’s supposed to work; can you make sure that’s true?
Thanks @SelectAKey! Current version struggles with orbits < 150km or so. No other considerations as far as I know. For now the code only works with the uploaded craft, but eventually I’ll expand it to handle various situations.
Are you trying to cancel all target-relative velocity? Or are you trying to use space shuttle to maneuver a module? You're giving me an idea to create a canadarm replica...
One additional note that may be helpful: there are three different "eyes":
1) Red: center of mass
2) Blue: center of lift
3): Yellow: center of thrust
For aircraft, try to line up the center of mass (red) and center of lift (blue) as closely as possible to make a stable craft. Otherwise, the craft will constantly want to flip around the center of mass. Good luck!
Not sure about XML, but you should be able to accomplish this with Vizzy. The camera Zoom, X Rotation, and Y Rotation features are very helpful for me when I'm making videos. Let me know if you need more instruction and I can link to a craft or video.
You'll have to implement proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control into your Vizzy code. I have an example craft that uses it for hover functionality here. Hope this helps!
Sounds good @Bwad34. Can’t wait to see it!

5.3 years ago@SelectAKey well dang it. Back to the drawing board... if you could post a vid it may help me diagnose. No worries if not.

The Vizzy code in this craft may give some more guidance, especially when you want to de-activate then re-activate Vizzy scripts. Hope it helps!
