Tractor Beam - Updated for 209

Ntech brings you Large and Small Grid Tractor beams!

[h3] Works sometimes with weapon core *IF* you type in chat command /wc unsupportedmode[/h3]

A special thanks to Leto for writing the script for the UI and grid.Physics.AddForce

Thank you also to Cythons Energy Weapons script which was used in part to power the tractor beams. which is used with the permission granted under their public licenses.

Tractor beams have UI controls

[h1]Min (10m)[/h1] = Minimum distance objects can be to tractor beam

[h1]Max (800m)[/h1] = Maximum distance from beam that objects can be once pulled into that range

[h1]Strength(2000N - 750,000N)[/h1] = the force in newtons of the beam

Information

To control objects pulled in keep the distance between max and min less than 5m apart, how the beam works it pulls any targets that are farther than max to less than max, and once it reaches less than min it will then push it back to above min setting. There is a little bounce to objects with no dampening as it floats between min/max parameters.

If the min/max are set to just 1m difference it resembles a stop 'hold' position for the beam. -------------------------------- If you want the ship used in one of the videos: ARK - Reclaimer The vehicle being abused in one of the videos: Hydrogen Transport --------------------------------

*Has not been fully tested in DS

Important note: large objects not under inertial dampeners will be pulled in at an increasing rate, but will be slowed the closer they get to beam turret. If you pull objects with no dampening quickly make sure you have the minimum distance slider set further away or risk destroying things.

P.S. If anyone does a mod review or spotlight of this mod, I'll add it to the videos list.
