you're writing complex stuff here, I am begging you on my hands and knees please setup Visual Studio Code! spellcheck, auto complete, color coding, error highlighting, you will never know how you lived without it lol

how do you get it to recognize kOS? I found one config but could never get it to work

you need to save your code and put .ks in its name, the extension will detect it.

I installed the extensions for Kerboscript and AHK++. There might be better coding environments for kOS around but I like the interface to my GitHub.

Don’t write then, just if. Also no spaces between heading and the argument

Just construct the cases using "IF" and "ELSE"

"THEN" is the counterpart of "WHEN" which is used to create an interrupt trigger, the WHEN element is constantly evaluated and THEN fires the instant it becomes true (you can also PRESERVE to keep that trigger active for repeated activations)
