Module AdjustorUnit
Adjustors are specific motors that expel gas to generate torque on your construct.
Element class: Adjustor
Functions
| activate () | Start the adjustor at full power (works only when run inside a cockpit or under remote control). |
| deactivate () | Stops the adjustor (works only when run inside a cockpit or under remote control). |
| isActive () | Checks if the adjustor is active. |
| getState () | Deprecated: Returns the activation state of the engine. |
| toggle () | Toggle the state of the adjustor. |
| setThrust (thrust) | Set the exhaust thrust of the adjustor. |
| getThrust () | Returns the current exhaust thrust of the adjustor. |
| getMaxThrust () | Returns the maximal exhaust thrust the adjustor can deliver. |
| getThrustAxis () | Returns the adjustor exhaust thrust direction in construct local coordinates. |
| getTorqueAxis () | Returns the adjustor torque axis in construct local coordinates. |
| getWorldThrustAxis () | Returns the adjustor exhaust thrust direction in world coordinates. |
| getWorldTorqueAxis () | Returns the adjustor torque axis in world coordinates. |
| setSignalIn (plug, state) | Set the value of a signal in the specified IN plug of the element. |
| getSignalIn (plug) | Return the value of a signal in the specified IN plug of the element. |
Functions
- activate ()
- Start the adjustor at full power (works only when run inside a cockpit or under remote control).
- deactivate ()
- Stops the adjustor (works only when run inside a cockpit or under remote control).
- isActive ()
-
Checks if the adjustor is active.
Returns:
-
0/1
1 when the adjustor is on.
- getState ()
-
Deprecated: Returns the activation state of the engine.
This method is deprecated: isActive should be used instead
Returns:
-
0/1
1 when the engine is on, 0 otherwise.

- toggle ()
- Toggle the state of the adjustor.
- setThrust (thrust)
-
Set the exhaust thrust of the adjustor.
Parameters:
- thrust float The adjustor thrust in newtons (limited by the maximum thrust).
- getThrust ()
-
Returns the current exhaust thrust of the adjustor.
Returns:
-
float
The current exhaust thrust of the adjustor in newtons.
- getMaxThrust ()
-
Returns the maximal exhaust thrust the adjustor can deliver.
Returns:
-
float
The maximum exhaust thrust of the adjustor in newtons.
- getThrustAxis ()
-
Returns the adjustor exhaust thrust direction in construct local coordinates.
Returns:
-
vec3
The adjustor exhaust thrust direction vector in construct local coordinates.
- getTorqueAxis ()
-
Returns the adjustor torque axis in construct local coordinates.
Returns:
-

The torque axis vector in construct local coordinates.
- getWorldThrustAxis ()
-
Returns the adjustor exhaust thrust direction in world coordinates.
Returns:
-
vec3
The adjustor exhaust thrust direction vector in world coordinates.
- getWorldTorqueAxis ()
-
Returns the adjustor torque axis in world coordinates.
Returns:
-
vec3
The torque axis vector in world coordinates.
- setSignalIn (plug, state)
-
Set the value of a signal in the specified IN plug of the element.
Valid plug names are:
- "in" for the in signal (seems to have no actual effect when modified this way).
Parameters:
- plug string A valid plug name to set.
- state 0/1 The plug signal state
- getSignalIn (plug)
-
Return the value of a signal in the specified IN plug of the element.
Valid plug names are:
- "in" for the in signal.
Parameters:
- plug string A valid plug name to query.
Returns:
-
0/1
The plug signal state
