Nanodrone Components

2023-08-02T10:15:36Z

Gravydigger: Created Page

To use Drone, Nanodrone Components must be carried on the ship. When launching for a dive, components can be bought in batches of 1000kg for an average cost of 500 E$, thought this price can change depending on the market.

To store components, a Nanodrone Storage must be installed onto the ship. Each nanodrone storage has 2 stats a captain needs consider. Storage refers to how much ammunition a ship can carry. Delivery refers to how many kilograms a second the storage system can supply drones. If the combine usage rate of all the drones on the ship exceed its delivery, the amount of dispensed drones will be limited to the delivery rate.

If a captain is not using drones, it is recommended to sell the storage to reduce the redundant weight of bringing components that cannot be used.

Kinetic Ammunition

Gravydigger: Added amunition cost

To fire [[Mass Driver|Mass Drivers]], kinetic ammunition must be carried on the ship. When launching for a dive, ammunition can be bought in batches of 1000kg for an average cost of 250 E$, thought this price can change depending on the market.

To store ammunition, a Projectile magazine must be installed onto the ship. Each magazine has 2 stats a captain needs consider. '''Storage''' refers to how much ammunition a ship can carry. '''Delivery''' refers to how many kilograms a second the storage system can supply to weapons. If the combine fire rate of all the Mass Drivers on the ship exceed its delivery, the driver's rate-of-fire will be limitted to the delivery rate.

Without a mass driver, it is recommended to seal the magazine due to the redundant weight of bringing ammo that cannot be used.

Main Propulsion

Gravydigger: Fixed grammer issues and make text more formal regarding the last sentence

====== Main Rocket Engine ======
Main rocket engine of the ship is the core method of propulsion of a [[spaceship]]. Main engines usually operate in two modes:
* Interlunar mode, providing high [[propellant economy]] for hour-to-days long [[codex:burn]]s during [[glossary:interlunar]] travel, serving both as propulsion and [[artificial gravity]].
* RCS support mode, providing high [[thrust]] to complement [[Reaction Control System|RCS thrusters]] of a spaceship.

K37s start with the RA-TNTRL-K37 engine, which is really sort of fine. Your main torch influences your transit reserve, and having a more efficient torch significantly reduces it, letting you spend more propelling eating rocks. Unfortunately, the only one with better exhaust velocity is the BWM, which has an annoying one second startup time. The NPMP is really where its at, but that thing expensive.

The Pinch Fusion Torch works different compared to the other engines. When firing, it requires 150MJ of power to ignite, but requires no power once ignition has started. This can however set off your low power alarm on your Ultracapacitor , which can be deemed annoying.

Reconnaissance Craft

2023-07-29T13:16:27Z

Gravydigger: Added a meta reason why RC exists

Reconnaissance craft provided an in-game reason why the ship is viewed at a bird’s eye view. The reconnaissance craft sends visual data to the ship for navigation, as well as other data depending on the system used.

== Obonto USV-R ==
[[File:Obonto USV-R.png|center|frameless|800x800px]]
<blockquote>This baseline reconnaissance craft follows your ship and delivers a video feed of the surrounding area of the ring.

With the lack of additional hardware installed, the camera on this vehicle is equipped with a larger, wide-angle lens, allowing greater viewing distance than any other reconnaissance vehicle. -In-Game Description</blockquote>The basic recon craft, while the Obonto USV-R does not have ant special capabilities or sensors, it is capable of zooming out further, providing a wilder field of view. This is a solid choice for any situation, enabling the pilot to spot valuables or react to threats from further away then otherwise possible.

Priced at 10,000 E$

== Runasimi Gravimetric USV ==
[[File:Runasimi Gravimetric USV.png|thumb|A LIDAR with Gravimetric reading incorporated.]]
<blockquote>This reconnaissance drone, equipped with a remote laser interferometer, is capable of detecting and mapping slight gravitational distortions within the rings.

The data is presented in a manner similar to a topographical map, with high gravitational disturbances (represented in hotter colors) signifying greater mass in the region. This may signify abundant mineral deposits if the visible ice mass does not reflect the readings. -In-Game Description</blockquote>The USV maps gravitational distortions, and overlays the LIDAR with them. This information can be used to quickly estimate where mineral-rich locations are by comparing with visual ice density.

Priced at 40,000 E$
[[File:Obonto USV-D Microseismic Series.png|thumb|An additional UI element providing a readout of mineral composition.]]

== Obonto USV-D Microseismic Series ==
<blockquote>This drone, equipped with a microseismic scanner, uses an array of low-powered lasers to induce and observe microseismic shockwaves in asteroids. The results show the trace minerals present in surface ice, and aid geologists in quickly judging their content and value. -In-Game Description</blockquote>The USV-D acts similarly to the cargo bay scanners, displaying the rough composition of items on a new HUD display. To scan an object, either select it with the AP or hover your mouse over it. Objects that are being scanned can be identified by geologists faster.

Priced at 60,000 E$
[[File:Obonto USV-GOV.png|thumb|The prioritizing of chunks drones will collect shown with a green line.]]

== Obonto USV-GOT ==
<blockquote>This recon drone, equipped with optical targeting computer interface, provides the ability to manually add objects to a queue, which will direct the autonomous systems. A drone system will still operate autonomously, but will ignore targets not within priority queue defined by operator, and ignore range restrictions to reach targeted objects. -In-Game Description</blockquote>A recon craft designed to be used with drones, the USV-GOT enables the use of a priority queue that overrides geologist filters and tuning restrictions. Right-clicking on any applicable object will add it to the queue, and right clicking again will remove it. Objects in the queue are prioritized by nanodrones, NT mining companions, and the EIAA-1337 autopilot.

It boasts the largest useful LIDAR display in the top left, cargo in the bottom left, and normal information screens in the top right.

Its so flashy, so shiny, so futuristic and modern, that its impossible to use in any meaningful way. Hud parts appear in hexagons when they change, and then fade out so you forget they changed. oh and the LIDAR map is overlayed on the entire screen, with the edges (the only important part) being off screen unless you scroll over there. if you hate LIDAR, and love shiny useless stuff, this is the hud for you!

Its a very sparse hud, with only critical information displayed. Top left is speed, acceleration and fuel. Top right is electrical and reactor temp. Across the top of the screen is a green line for capacitor and a red line for reactor temp. a small LIDAR is in the bottom right, and some of this info is repeated in a box at the bottom. the information NOT displayed is cargo hold (which you can still check on the geology tab), and what components are on or off or damaged (which you can still check in the mechanics tab).

Gravydigger: Added Gifs to display the different autopilot capabilities

==Autopilot Features==

{{#invoke:Equipment|list|Autopilot
|Name|ARL|AAT|RTC|FBW|Autopilot capabilities|Price}}

== Systems ==

=== MLF Autopilot ===
<blockquote>The MLF is a basic autopilot module capable of preserving velocity and orientation of the craft, using simple heuristics to determine RCS fire. The widely available open-source Antipodal Reaction Limiter module is used to cancel out opposing inputs. This autopilot is not capable of adjusting to changes in mass or thrust configuration. -In-game Description</blockquote>The starting autopilot system when starting a new game. Does not consider the mass of chunks inside the cargo hold when making maneuvers.
[[File:LIDAR-highlight.gif|alt=A ringroid being destroyed, emitting ore chunks being highlighted with a green rectangle|thumb|MLF highlighting ore chucks]]

==== LIDAR Highlighting ====
When a small enough ringroid is destroyed, the MLF will automatically highlight floating ore chunks with a rectangular box over said ore chunk withing the players view, allowing for easy identification of chunks.

=== MA-337 Autopilot ===
<blockquote>The proprietary autopilot module of Mitsudaya-Starbus, the MA-337 can be retrofitted to most modern craft. It uses advanced heuristics combined with a pre-trained Adaptive Angular Thrust neural network to adapt to mid-flight changes to ship configuration, mass shifts, and thruster damage. -In-game Description</blockquote>The next tier of autopilot; which considers the weight and shifting mass of chunks in the cargo hold when making maneuvers.
[[File:LIDAR-overlay.gif|alt=Colored lines (mainly green or red) around the main autopilot bubble change as the ship moves|thumb|245x245px|MA-337 LIDAR overlay]]

==== LIDAR Overlay ====
When autopilot is engaged, an overlay of the LIDAR system is displayed outside of the autopilot "bubble", allowing for quick reference to the LIDAR.

=== NDCI Autopilot ===
<blockquote>The NDCI autopilot is a decommissioned and gentled military-grade artificial neural network, used as the autopilot system in Tsukuyomi-class frigates. Rotational Thrust Computation capabilities allow it to accurately process and predict the impact of thrust alignment on rotation, for faster heading adjustments and less unintentional rotation. Its integration with standard Head-Up Display systems exposes its internal tactical assessment to the pilot. An integrated Fly-By-Wire system can interpret and augment direct thruster commands. The demilitarized system is not capable of full autonomy. -In-game Description</blockquote>This autopilot system uses more reaction mass compared to previous systems, in exchange for quicker acceleration and movement of maneuvers.
[[File:Firing-solutions.gif|alt=A blue line coming from the ship, as the ship destroys ringroid a ring roind it's targeting|thumb|NDCI Firing Solution. Also tracks the gimbled CLP-200AP]]

==== Firing solutions ====
Each weapons (railgun, laser, microwave, etc.) firing arc is shown to the player, showing the player where each weapon will hit, be it ringroids or other ships. The Firing solution also follows the aim of gimbled weapons.

==== Collision warnings ====
[[File:Collision-warnings.png|alt=An image of a ship showing collision lines towards a ringroid, indicating an imminent impact|thumb|NDCI Autopilot showing a predicted collision of a ringroid]]
When traveling at a speed were impacting an object would cause damage to the ship, lines from the ship to the object are displayed, shifting from orange to red depending on the proximity of the object. These warning also consider the orientation of the ship, and display where the object would hit the ship in the event of an impact.

=== ER-42 Autopilot ===
<blockquote>This custom-built autopilot was designed specifically for ring racing events. It offers superior trajectory prediction and has an unparalleled suite of capabilities, but requires fully operational high-resolution sensors to work reliably. -In-game Description</blockquote>This autopilot system needs to be unlocked from an event out in the ring before it can be installed on the ship. This autopilot is also only one of 2 systems that support all Reaction Control Systems avaliable in the game.

==== Trajectory prediction ====
[[File:Trajectory-prediction.gif|alt=Green highlights of the ship emminate from the direction of the ships travel, showing where the ship will go|thumb|ER-42 Autopilot predicting the direction of movement & orientation of the ship]]
When moving at speed, a highlight of the ship is displayed in the direction of travel, showing the predicted direction of travel ahead of time. This prediction also bends and rotates according the direction & thrust the ship is heading.

=== EIAA-1337 Autopilot ===
<blockquote>This MIT-licensed autopilot module for the Model E was released stand-alone to "accelerate the advent of interstellar travel". Its retrofit costs include the complete required sensor package. While still in the early stages of testing, the Elon Interstellar Autonomous Autopilot is a sophisticated and adaptable autopilot assist system, even in crowded spaces or enclosed docking structures, at speeds up to 50m/s. Elon Interstellar is not responsible for any damage, injury, or death incurred due to operating the system outside its specified operating parameters.

THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. -In-game Description</blockquote>A "true" autopilot, allowing for the ship to automatically avoid obstacles while maintaining the same direction of travel. Does not give direct control of the autopilot unless actively controlling the autopilot vector.
[[File:Autonomic-navigation.gif|alt=A ship automatically moving to navigate a ringroid field, while keeping the same direction of velocity|thumb|EIAA-1337 Nagiviating a ringroid field]]

==== Autonomic ====
Simply tell the autopilot the heading you wish go with the autopilot vector, and it will navigate automatically. For direct control the player must actively left-click-drag or right-click-drag the autopilot vector. Selecting an object with autopilot will navigate the ship towards the object, as well as open the excavator if the object is an ore chunk when close enough.

== Reaction Control Systems ==

===ARL===
Antipodal Reaction Limiter cancels out opposite thrusters, reducing remass consumption while preserving same effective thrust.

===AAT===
Adaptive Angular Thrust checks how much rotation thrust ship needs in realtime, as mass shifts within cargo bay. It makes it capable to steer ship with big cargo bay full of shifting mass.

===RTC===
Rotational Thrust Computation uses dynamic equations to figure out which thrusters will contribute to rotating ship. It makes use of non-obvious thrusters, using more reactive mass but generally will end up with faster angular acceleration.

===FBW===
Fly By Wire routes usual "manual" thrust input through an autopilot, allowing it to make corrections and fire other thrusters than user anticipated. Makes manual flying easier, but will most likely use more reaction mass.
