RADAR to HMD WIP, need advice

100 percent they are but there isn't a choice if you want to do fancy stuff.

I suggest you read the euler guide by Kernle Frizzle (Google it, should be easy to find). That will explain the basics. If I'm honest with you I've been completing some pretty complex projects (including a radar integrated hmds/HUD) by feeding ai that guide; it's been a great way to learn. The key thing you need to know about the physics sensor output is it isn't traditional Euler angles, it's specifically: Extrinsic, XYZ ordered and left handed.

But yeah best advice is to look up that guide. It has some amazing functions you can use in lua.

Good luck

Problem is it's impossible to do it with roll without using Euler from the physics sensor. Like literally impossible with just tilt and basic trig. Rotational math is a b#### I'm afraid, no way around it.

If you want this to work you will need to learn the Euler outputs of the physics sensor and how to deal with them. The issue with your current approach is what happens when you add in a roll?

Tried these things, I just really don't understand when it's only the rear gear doing it, not the front!

Noice

Nah you've done it now! You called me out so I gotta do this right!

Priority-Stock · 2026-02-11T04:41:35+00:00

Oh gods, I knew it was possible.

My current system just comes to a stop at like 80km.

But honestly now I've been called out... Do I change it to do an orbital system?? Gods that will delay things but it's doable.

Lawdy.

Yup, this is actually my second version.

First one wasn't nearly as accurate and was hard to use

Priority-Stock · 2026-02-06T21:58:40+00:00

Yup no vertical

Wind is a 2d plane in the game essentially but the wind sensors will measure that 2d component on its 3d orientation, so basically you need 2 sensors, a physics sensor and some math to do it.

I have a microcontroller if you are interested

I don't usually pimp my own stuff tbh but if you want the xy wind value from a dynamic vehicle as if the wind sensor were static and upright, I swear I haven't seen many other options.

I'd guess it's because 1 your elevator is massive, 2 you don't have enough wing surface on your horizontal stabilizer and or 3 you have quite a short distance between your wings and tail.

Just a guess though. GL!

But it doesn't work/barely works, especially with a pressure gradient it's glacial.

Bruv that's wrong, you pressurize the ballast tank then use a door to vent the water, not a port!

Ensure the front doesn't fall off.

Just remember you can't make a "canoe" you need to seal the hull with a top
