Valkyrien Logistics adds a variety of new Gauges for collecting Ship information, to be explicitly used with Create: Extra Gauges!
Gauges
- Position Gauge
- This gauge collects the X, Y, or Z of the current block position. If on a Ship, this position will be transformed to output where it is in relation to the Ship (Shipyard -> Worldspace)
- Outputs
- When connected to an Integer Gauge, it will output either X, Y, or Z as described above
- When connected to a String Gauge, it will output either X, Y, or Z as the full decimal value
- When connected to a Display Source, it will output X, Y, and Z as a comma-separated string. Setting it to Full Numbers will give you the full decimal value where as if it is set to Shorten then it will output the floored Integer values
- Linear Velocity Gauge
- This gauge is very similar to the Position Gauge except that its values come from the linear velocity of the Ship and if it is not on a Ship, it will be inactive
- Angular Velocity Gauge
- This gauge is almost the exact same as the Linear Velocity Gauge but its values come from the angular velocity (omega) of the Ship.
- Rotation Gauge
- This gauge collects the X, Y, Z, or W of the Ship's Quaternion used to represent the Ship's orientation. It is disabled if not on a Ship and outputs similarly to the above three gauges
- Mass Gauge
- This gauge simply collects the Mass of the Ship and is inactive if not on a Ship. The output is unaffected by the Shorten setting on the Display Link
- Slug Gauge
- This gauge collects the Ship's unique string identifier (slug) and olny outputs to either String or Display Link
Future Content
- Euler Gauge
- SInce I know using Quaternions is hard for some, I will add a gauge later on to output Euler Angles instead
