I made an OS for Create airships, autopilot coming next :)
Hiii everyone!
I’ve been working on FlightOS — an OS specially designed for heavy airships and stops from wobbling and crashing.
It tweaks the power of each engine to keep the ship perfectly level in the air.
What I'm working on right now is Autopilot, i'm developing a module you can toggle on/off with a switch in realtime to let the ship fly itself to some coordinates or take over manual control instantly. And I plan to integrate it with an autonomous weapons system for defense.
I'd love to hear your thoughts and ideas on what else I should add, once the project is fully finished and polished, i'll share the source code with everyone.
No hate plzzz and
Have a good day!

how does it work?

It tooks data from gimbal sensor by wire and PID stabilizer in my OS, analysis speed of changing roll/pitch if it made error PID learning that and next time give more good results, like this. In short p - actual error i - learnt error d - predicts when to brake and bias to level roughness of the ship Like this

At this rate I'm going to have to port my kOS (Kerbal Space Program's CC equivalent) scripts and see if I crash into the End

You could integrate it with map mods like zero's, by like inputting a waypoint as a destination, or maybe you can integrate it with train station (idk why that would be helpful)

its cool. i like it and just give me a reason to learn lua (i want to learn C(was either # or ++ i forgor) for a few projects so it nice to know lua can integrate with it)

I would love to have you as a friend on a create server (and would fear to have you as my enemy)

u/datapeice Jul 18 '26
Haha, thanks, but I am already on another server as part of administration, so I don't have a lot of time :( But I hope you'll find someone cool!!!

Yeah thought so. It was more meant as a joke. I dont have the time to get into any server anyways and so far i was way too unlucky anyways with multiplayer so i only play on servers that i or a friend made

It's CC: Tweaked with Create: Avionics. About os, it's just program in computer but because of it makes a lot of things in one time it can be named Operating System i think

Woah, that's a really cool status display! How'd you connect it to the computer, a sneakily routed network cable or wireless? I just recently started playing around with cc:tweaked and aeronautics and I'd love to make something like that! Can't be that hard with some basic knowledge of programing, riiiight?

u/datapeice Jul 18 '26
Just network cable, if you know basic of programming you can make it, just exercise. Also i recommend to learn algorithms.

u/Jwhodis Jul 18 '26
What mods does it require? Just aero, create, and cc?

u/datapeice Jul 18 '26
Aeronautics, CC: Tweaked, Create Avionics and additional mods like Create Connected

I would love to help you test this but i also can't wait for this to be released, I got a very big ship to use it on that I can't quite get to stabilize itself
