@Keen: Can we get mod access to PropulsionOverride for Suspensions?

I see why there are no mods for implementing Vehicle-based AI. It is because we are given no access to PropulsionOverride or SteeringOverride in IMyMotorSuspension. Why is this? We are allowed to modify overrides for thrusters, why not these?

Can this please be given to us? Without it, any ground-based AI modding is impossible (unless we whitelist).

Thanks

You already can. This is for the programmable block really, sure, but mods have access to it too.

 

Malware, the IMyMotorSuspension object does not have these properties. But I didn't think about trying to update thru GridTerminalSystem for in-game. I can try. If it works, I need to keep that in mind for other limitations I am seeing. I really think Keen should add this to the interface regardless.

Thanks.

 

I know they don't have the properties. I know that very well, because we've been trying to get them to add them for a long time

Using terminal properties and -actions are usually discouraged. This is part of the performance recommendations we usually give out to people who want to write ingame scripts. They're orders of magnitude slower than a direct C# member would be, but sometimes they're all we have.
