Help fix my Jet engines!! TYVM

Help fix my Jet engines!! TYVM

Hey, I'm just working to release my F-15 EX but i keep running into a problem- my engines are shutting down/losing power over time.

its probably something really obvious I'm missing but I can't find it. It may be something to do with the custom tank? (It is vented)

Anyway, any help would be much appreciated.

LIDAR Help!

I'm making a lidar for my F-15, it will be used for GCAS and TFR. My issue is if I try scan with the laser any faster than 1 per 5 ticks it starts giving me false readings.

So the question is, is there a way to increase the speed at which I can gimbal the lasers and still get an accurate return? Or am I just stuck with the 5 tick wait and the solution is MOAR LASERS?

Thanks as always.

1x1 missiles with logic help

Can anybody explain how people make clean 1x1 missiles that have logic? I can do missile logic myself but I just don't get how without a physics sensor and microcontroller how they do it.

My assumption was that it's an invisible 1x6 microcontroller and invisible physics sensor below the missile making it actually a 1x2 missile buuuuut when I tried that the dynamics of the missile just can't get a stable flight.

What am I missing?

Thanks!

Funky physics shapes!?

So this is essentially just a room, a simple box; any ideas why the pride flag?

Putting in a flooder just extends them.

I build in a game called Stormworks, my current project is version 2 of my Apollo mission.

A large improvement I've been trying to make is to have the Command Module and Lunar Module dock together automatically.

This obviously involves them holding a certain attitude relative to each other to align the hatches.

I've done the translational part, that was easy but when it comes to the actual attitude matching I continually run into the same bug; When the LM is close to upright relative to the world it works perfectly, the RCS system on the Command Module holds it in the correct position and the correct attitude; but once the Lunar Module begins to tilt my roll axis begins to oscillate followed by pitch and yaw.

Stormworks sensors output the Tait Bryan Euler rotations extrinsically, in XYZ order and left handed.

So, I'm pulling the ijk from each craft from the ex ey ez.

then:

iC,jC,kC=ijke(exC,eyC,ezC)

iT,jT,kT=ijke(exT,eyT,ezT)

e1=cross(iC,iT)

e2=cross(jC,jT)

e3=cross(kC,kT)

e=add(add(e1,e2),e3)

pErr=dot(e,iC)

yErr=dot(e,jC)

rErr=-dot(e,kC)

as I said, this works until the Lunar Module drifts from being upright

If anybody has any insight I'd love to hear it

Thanks
