Control Module - basically key binding for ships

This mod adds the ability for Timer Blocks and Programmable Blocks to be triggered/ran when the input (key/mouse/gamepad/game control) is pressed and/or released by a player controlling a cockpit/RC/seat in the same grid system.

The system is very flexible and you can make from a one key toggling a light to a really complicated mouse and keyboard coordination controllable by specific seats in the ship.

Vanilla PB can read movement and rotation

IMyShipController has MoveIndicator/RotateIndicator/RollIndicator which are now synchronized in all cases (SE v200), so if you don't need more than those you don't really need this mod. Also IMyShipToolBase has IsActivated, useful to detect clicks.

How to use

I have a guide with various examples and blueprints to get you guys started.

But if you want a really quick tutorial then just see the tooltip in the "Quick Introduction" buton in a PB or timer block.

The video is only a presentation, not a tutorial

The video by w4stedspace should be treated as a demonstration of what the mod can do, because the version used in the video is way older than the current one which is configured and coded differently, that's why you shouldn't use it as a tutorial, instead use the text guide I linked above.

Chat commands

• [h1]/cm help[/h1]
• Shows all inputs (keys, mouse buttons/axes, gamepad butons/axes and game controls).
• [h1]/cm showinput[/h1]
• Toggles printing in the HUD the inputs you're currently pressing, very useful for quickly finding the name of something specific.
• [h1]/cm updatetype[/h1]
• Testing command, this changes how the code executes internally, before or after simulation. By default it's set to before simulation and I left it there for people to experiment. Please try it and let me know if input feels laggy with before or after sim.
