I should mention that each script requires its own programmable block. I have collated them into a collection.

I also have a demo rig which you can update the programmable blocks with the new scripts (until I get around to updating it all again).

At least this way you can play around with it until I write a guide to examine the setup - then you can ask some of the more direct questions while you get oriented with the system.

I will upload a new version of my rover mining rig, which has everything set-up ready with the latest scripts on it to make figuring it out easier.

It's 4 parts because it's quite an extensive volume of code and to get it more feature rich I had to break it into parts, so bear with me while I get it organised.

Appreciate the interest though, I do have a small update for this script to be published shortly. I'm just testing it's made docking more reliable first.

If that is successful I will make time to make a proper guide.

Also happy new year!

This is basically a drone control framework as an extension of the mining controller code. I will write a guide soon, or record one - so taken note of that.

Mostly because ive been adding features and debugging to get I stable to make a guide.

My next major plan is to add a graphical display but that won't be part of this script.

Basically there are four parts to the script. The heart is the gmdc - drone controller. Gmdp - prospector script, which generates coordinates and job information remotely using a drone camera to transmit. Then you have gmds, which tell controller tells the drones what to do. And gmdi which let's you configure and manage them controller script.

It looks super cool, but it's completely unclear what works, how to configure it, and so on. It would be great to see more qols on the script page and a "Complete Guide" for users.
