AutoArm is my approach to robotic arms in Space Engineers, combining minimal manual setup with configurable arm behaviour.

Current Features

  • Set up an arm quickly using named base and head blocks.
  • Manage multiple arms on the same construct from one Programmable Block (PB).
  • Pair separate cockpits with separate arms for simultaneous multiplayer control.
  • Automatically park and swap tool heads with ToolSwap, running in a second PB.
  • Control individual arms from other PB scripts using tool-head position, orientation and waypoint instructions.

Planned and In-Development Features

  • Automatic path planning and path recording.
  • Collision avoidance:
  • [list]
  • Between arms
  • Against the main construct
  • Against unrelated grids
  • Against voxels

[*]Automatic arm calibration to improve stability, positioning accuracy and movement speed. [/list]
