[QoL] Mechanical Keybinds

A Quality of Life mod to bring more engineering in Space Engineers.

Control your pistons, rotors, and hinges with movement keypresses!

You can bind a mechanical block to the following controls (Default binds in parentheses):

• Left/Right (A/D)
  
• Up/Down (Space/C)
  
• Forward/Backward (W/S)
  
• Pitch (Mouse Up/Down, Up Arrow/Down Arrow)
  
• Yaw (Mouse Left/Right, Left Arrow/Right Arrow)
  
• Roll (Q/E)

Important! To control the mechanical blocks you must add them to a block group that includes the controlling cockpit. Only one group at a time per cockpit is supported.

On the controlling cockpit you need to add the Control Mechanics action to the cockpits toolbar.

To take control of the mechanical blocks change the Control Mechanics action bound to the cockpit to On. Note, if you add or remove blocks from the block group you need to turn control mechanics Off then On again if it is enabled when you modify the group.

You can set the home position of the Mechanical block.
Block can be set to return to the home position if the input is 0 or if control is released.


You can find the controls for the mechanical block added to the bottom of the terminal controls for each block:



Set the Bind and Control Velocity. Control velocity is multiplied by your input and will control the final velocity of the mechanical block.



Add the mechanical block to a block group that contains the cockpit from which you want to control the mechanical block from.



Add the Control Mechanics action to your cockpits toolbar. Toggle this to on to take control of your mechanical blocks.




TBD: Auto reverse when block reaches a maximum/minimum
Potential TBD: Gimbaled input
