Projector Aligner

Script to align a projector's projection from a control seat, and to switch projectors from a menu. This script can handle several groups of projectors, each with their own sets of screens and control seats.

All configuration is done through Custom Data. Simply create a heading in the custom data of any block that you wish to use with this script:

[projector]

You may add cockpits, flight seats, remote controls and projectors. By default all blocks will be in the "default" projector group. You can change this by specifying a group name. For example:

[projector] group=Ship Printer

To make use of a display, specify a display number and (optionally) a scale and a color. For example:

[projector] display=0 scale=0.5 color=00CED1

Change the number to the screen that you wish to use; numbers start at 0, so a five-screen cockpit has screens 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4. Color should be entered as six hexadecimal digits representing red, green and blue.

Additionally, you can specify details for a specific display using numbered headings. This allows you to configure the display for more than one group on a multi-display block, such as a cockpit, or to display the output on a cockpit without using it for control. For example:

[projector_display0] scale=0.8 color=F07020 group=Second Printer

Follow the argument with a group name if other than "default". Use quotes if the group name contains spaces or begins with a hyphen.
