HyperTech Gyroscope

Description
This is an extremely powerful gyroscope intended to replace 5000 normal large ship gyroscopes.


This mod is not intended to be realistic, nor balanced in every way. I have made efforts to put in a material cost and power requirement cost that should prevent, or disuade players from putting them on smaller ship builds.

With that said, I think its silly to have to dedicate such large amounts of space and planning to install gyroscopes for larger ship builds.

Currently this is Large ship only, however if user feedback is enough I will consider making a small ship variant as well.

This has it's own custom component to help negate the need for thousands of components to be used for construction.

Mod Info:

Large Ship Gyroscope:

Custom Component: HyperSteel
Power Requirement: 1 Keen Large Reactor
5000 times stronger than a stock large gyroscope
Custom category HyperTech Industries as well as placement into default Large Blocks category

Still to come:
Custom models, for now this is using stock Keen Icon/Models and uses the Steel Plate icon for the custom component.
Tweaking of materials/power usage based on testing and user feedback

@Fingersniffer OK cool TY. Just please don't make it any weaker as I like them just as they are. :steamhappy::steamthumbsup:

@HeavyGamer I've been away from SE for almost a decade, and as such the mod has become woefully out of date. I have recently started playing again and I'll look into updating this mod to the current format.

OMG! Thank you so much for this mod and the mod I was looking for. I have an 80,000,000 KG ship and growing and with 4 of these it gyroscopes just nicely. Only thing is though (and this is just cosmetic) but the texture for me is just black and I mean solid black so it's missing it's texture for sure but I can just build some blocks around it for the function and use another one for the ascetics lol. Anyway thanks again for this mod and keep up the good work for those of use non immersion driven players. :steamhappy:

Could we please get this for small ships? I build a lot of small ships gone wild but although there are thruster mods to make them move, there is no super gyro. Well theres one that is x1000 but its either bugged or not enough power. They are mostly showcase ships so they don't have to be functional but it would sure be nice.

this mod works but it freaked out with auto iolit scripts even at a low power. but its great

Nice! Perfect for a big ship. Although a disgusting purple color because of the texture problems, it still performs wonderfully. I just tucked them out of sight.

Normally, these work wonderfully for me. But lately, they are showing up purple. How do I fix this?
