  • Let's Discuss Part Mirroring 11 days ago

    I am a mirror on control player. I think that any asymmetric parts won't do well with auto mirroring.
    I managed to control part-section mirroring by making sure that each part attachment point is only used once. Using an attachment multiple times makes things not mirror friendly.
    I would like to see single part mirroring or duplicating on mobile.
    I would like to remove the mirror entire plane buttons, since they seem to break the plane even if the mirror isn't carried out.

  • how to remove drag and mass from entire aircraft (ft. regex) 14 days ago

    @DDVC I feel like it should still work, but be unsafe now because of funky trees. I haven't verified it (i forgor)
    - check regex mode?
    - maybe use Part id="([0-9]+?)" (edit: it behaves the same)
    - check other sections like Connections unaffected

    @FlightClipper I use GitHub since I don't have any place to upload code or long info posts. Also, this mod is outdated and no longer supported by me. I would want to make a funky trees version but I haven't got to it yet.
    The following is the text from the GitHub link:


    Commands Reference

    Notice about Data Sets:
    This program splits the list of recorded information into four categories:
    - M (Movement): Position and rotation.
    - S (Standard): Basic control axes, Throttle, and Brake.
    - E (Extra): Trim and VTOL sliders, and landing gear.
    - A (Advanced): Weapons and activation groups.

    Recording settings will determine which data sets are recorded. This setting is saved in each recording. During playback, this information is checked. A recorded data set will be locked from player input during playback.

    The following information cannot be recorded:
    - Start values of disabled data sets
    - Switching of weapons, targets, or combat mode

    Commands

    [Actions] FltRec_ClearSet (char set)
    - Delete a data set from the currently loaded data.
    - set: Character corresponding to the data set. May be M, S, E, or A.

    [Actions] FltRec_Load (string filename)
    - Load a recording file into internal memory.
    - filename: File name.

    [Actions] FltRec_Play (void)
    - Play data currently in memory.

    [Actions] FltRec_Preview (void)
    - Generate a preview of the path taken. The data set M must be present. Note that the path is retained even if new data is loaded.

    [Actions] FltRec_Record (void)
    - Begin recording aircraft movement and inputs. Be sure to adjust recorder settings first.

    [Actions] FltRec_Save (string filename)
    - Save the data currently in memory to a file.
    - filename: File name.

    [Actions] FltRec_Stop (void)
    - Manually stop the current recording or playback.

    [Actions] FltRec_TogglePreview (void)
    - Toggle visibility of the preview. The preview must be generated first. Note that leaving the sandbox will automatically hide the preview.

    [Check Settings] FltRSet_Check (void) (added in V1.1)
    - Prints the current settings in the dev console.

    [Recording Settings] FltRSet_RecordControls (bool m, bool s, bool e, bool a)
    - Choose whether certain data sets are recorded.
    - m: Movement. Default true.
    - s: Standard. Default true.
    - e: Extra. Default false.
    - a: Advanced. Default false.

    [Recording Settings] FltRSet_RecordQuality (int size, int interval)
    - Recording quality.
    - size: Maximum number of data points that can be recorded before the

  • Graingy Survey: How Do You Find the Motivation to Complete Anything? 24 days ago

    @Graingy i can actually fully cancel a project to close it, but i only do that early on

  • Challenge me to make something complicated !!!! 27 days ago

    @Someguywhomakesmods
    1. You can use the animation-style approach, where you define each rotator's position as a function f(t), where t is a timing variable that is defined separately.
    2. Avoid using rotator speed. Set it very high and use the FT to control the speeds using smooth. Then all rotators will match their inputs exactly.
    3. The animation-style FT also means that you can easily debug motion for any timing value, if you use an input like VTOL to write a timing value.
    My KiHa T100 has some simple wipers. They only use one movement variable (WiperPosition) and one timing variable (WiperAnimator)

    If you are trying to convert music to tone generator, someone on youtube made a script a few years ago, that reduces audio files into midi notes. I don't have the script sadly, all I know is that the project was called "auditory illusions" (I have some of the midi files the guy made). After you have the midi files, you can use MID2TGVA to convert it into tone generator parts.

    You could put an entire song into a mod AudioSource, but that might be piracy so xdd

  • [yapping] animation approach to landing gear one month ago

    @Graingy a compound curve of straight lines looks like this
    Red is MainGearLeg, blue is MainGearDoor. However, you should not program using normal linear equations in real FT because it is unreadable

  • [yapping] animation approach to landing gear one month ago

    @Graingy plot the points of position (y-axis) over the animator (x-axis), and make your lines/curves from there
    Personally, the few times I have done this, I never used curves, only straight lines

  • [yapping] animation approach to landing gear one month ago

    @Graingy
    I found one that I've used before. It's only a main landing gear with a single door, but the gear movement is offset slightly to prevent touching the door.
    Timer: smooth(GearDown?0:10,1)
    MainGearLeg: lerp(0, 1, inverselerp(0, 9, Timer)) where 0 is retracted
    MainGearDoor: lerp(1, 0, inverselerp(5, 10, Timer)) where 1 is open

  • FT code issues one month ago

    It is easiest to make landing gear FT by treating it as an animation, and planning it using an animation timeline. Then, you can use linear mapping or math functions.
