Hi guys,
Pretty new to scripting in SE.
I want to write a script that warns me if an enemy ship is nearby.
After grinding duckduckgo for bits and pieces of documentation :p the best thing i found was:
https://fresc81.github.io/SpaceEngineers/interface_sandbox_1_1_mod_a_p_i_1_1_i_my_radio_antenna.html

Im decent with C# so all im looking for is a function that returns a Collection of some type T where i can check if T is hostile.
I thought the Antenna Interface was the first thing...

This was what I found on the internet:

string myItemName = myItem.Content.SubtypeName.ToString()

But that doesn't work, it fails with the an error:

'MyInventoryItem' does not contain a definition for 'Content' and no extension method 'Content' accepting a first argument of type 'MyInventoryItem' could be found

I assume that something has changed. I tried to get the new property names via reflection, but that didn't work out because it's...

I'm trying to figure out how, in a PB, to tell that a projection is not just "complete", but that all the welding is done. Is there any way to do this, other than iterating over every block on the grid the projector is on, making sure it's complete?

Hi,

I have tried many things but I can not solve this problem.
I put the codes below for those who want to look at it.

How Do You Get X,Y,Z Values From Raycast.HitPosition?

As of recently, I have begun programming a simple laser designator that works with a drone that my friend built a while ago. The script is all done and I have successfully achieved a functional raycast that records a set of coordinates from where the attatched camera hits with a raycast, however, I want to display the individual X Y Z values to an LCD screen so that the player can copy and paste it into their GPS list. If you could also help me to directly add coordinates to the players GPS...

Hey there, recently I have decided to take up the challenge of making a guided missile script / a gyroscope alignment system that looks towards a GPS coordinate. I am unsure of how I am supposed to go about this as I don't know how to align gyroscopes to Vector3D coordinates.

If you could help me out by just breaking it down to me and perhaps giving an example then it would be much appreciated, thanks! :D

Been programming a long time, but never in C#. I'm trying to do the simplest of things in this language and just keep getting stone-walled at every attempt. I thought, as a way of getting introduced to the programmable block, I'd try writing a script that moves gravel from a refinery to a connector. That's it.
Well, since the APIs changed and I couldn't use any example scripts from before January, I just spent more than an hour in API documentation and now I'm getting an error that I...

Block scripts requests thread

As programmable blocks came to SE, and not all players are programmers, I guess a thread with block requests is reasonable.

Basically, if you want a script on your block, post explanation here. Other programmers and I (Although I'm generally a busy person so maybe not often) will be more than happy to program it for you. Of course I still suggest you to learn programming, but you might not want to, and it's all fine. Other people like other things.

Hey guys,

I'm attempting my first decently sized script to automate a self-building elevator...I know...I know, its not worth it, and yada yada. However, I already have way too much time invested into the project to give up on it now. I compile the program, and it compiles fine, then when I run it, it throws: "Object reference not set to instance of an object" at me. I have checked all of the block names from what I can tell and they all seem to match up in the code with the terminal...

Hello guys.

I'm troubled by the strange phenomenon that occurred when testing the program, so I want to rely on everyone's wisdom.

As I am Japanese and not very good at English, this sentence may seem strange.
I hope, however, you will read it to the end.



I have created a program that gives refineries the priority to refine stones in order to make mining easier.

API or example script for the new LCD?

With the new update, 6 different possible LCD's in cockpits, 2 on the programmable blocks... heck knows how many more are out there.

So the question is how to access each of them?

For example, I want to set up one of the LCD's in a friendly fighter to list the heading/pitch change to point to the nearest enemy, as locked onto by one of it's turrets.

I'm not asking for the turret to LCD code, I'm asking for the actual code that references the LCD itself in the cockpit....

So..How do I use the new LCDs that are in the vanilla (and I assume also in modded) cockpits?
I understand I need to use IMyTextSurface? How exactly I tie it to a block? What would be the difference between it and using IMyTextPanel when refering to regular LCD which is not in a cockpit?

How to know how many LCDs there are, if at all and their order based on the index number?

I'm not sure if I'm not doing it right but the old .SetCustomName still works buts is obsolete and says to use the setter of "Customname" but neither .SetValue("Customname", ) or .SetValue("CustomName", ) work. Is it not supposed to be a setvalue?
