Common YOLOL

A collection of small common scripts meant to be easily copied and understood for the YOLOL beginner.

This page is a WIP. Please contribute to it! (Avoid complex scripts and the renaming of fields.)

Fuel chamber

Standard Generator Script (Basic YOLOL Chip)

Note: This script will require enough batteries on the ship to act as a buffer for the generator spool up time.

Default Fields

:FuelChamberUnitRateLimit=100-:StoredBatteryPower/100 goto 1

Non Default Fields

Note: This version of the script assumes either "GeneratorUnitRateLimit" or "FuelChamberRateLimit" (preferably the latter) are renamed to "limit", and at least one battery exists on the network with it's "StoredBatteryPower" field renamed to "bat".

:limit=100-:bat/100 goto 1

Tutorial Laborer

Note: The Laborer has renamed field names by default so this version will work for the tutorial ship.

:Generator=100-:Battery_1/100 goto 1

Settable on/off Generator flag

c=(c<1)*(:Battery_1<5000)+c*(:Battery_1<9999) :Gen=c*22+0.001 goto 1

Fitting this code on the Laborer Module requires renaming at least one device. (here the Generator was renamed Gen)

5000 and 9999 are the start-charging and stop-charging levels. 22 is just enough charge to run the stock two box thrusters.

Generator Script (Basic YOLOL Chip)

This YOLOL script is inspired by the standard generator script and is further optimized. You can set from which amount of stored battery power the generator should generate less compared to the stored battery power.

It is assumed that specific YOLOL fields are renamed:

Ship Part	Old YOLOL field name	New YOLOL field name
Every Fuel Chamber	FuelChamberUnitRateLimit	Gen
One Rechargeable Battery	StoredBatteryPower	Bat

Depending on the amount of batteries and the amount of generators, a higher or lower value can be used for the variable "a" in the script. A too high value leads to the fact that the algorithm cannot find an optimal balance for the FuelChamberUnitRateLimit/Gen.

Generator Script

// Variables for Tweaking
a = 9500 // If Battery Amount is lower than this, Gen is 100%
// Static variables and precalculation
c = 10000 // Max Stored Battery Power
d = 100 // 100%
e = (c-a)/d
// Final Generator Scriptline
:Gen=((:Bat<a)*d)+((:Bat>a)*((:Bat-c)*-1)/e) goto 8

Generator Script with On/Off Button and Minimum Power Production

If the battery consumption is very high and the amount of rechargeable batteries is not enough until the generator produces enough power, you should consider using the following version of the script.

Use a Hybrid-Button with the following field names and values configured:

Name	Value
On	0
ButtonOnStateValue	1
ButtonOffStateValue	0
ButtonStyle	1

The variable b can be used to set the minimum amount of power that the generators should generate. A too low value, can lead to the fact that the generators do not provide enough power yet and the batteries are already discharged. A too high value leads to the fuel rod consumption during standstill being too high.

// Variables for Tweaking
a = 9500 // If Battery Amount is lower than this, Gen is 100%
b = 10 // If Button is On, Gen will be at least this much
// Static variables and precalculation
c = 10000 // Max Stored Battery Power
d = 100 // 100%
e=(c-a)/d f=(d/b)
// Final Generator Scriptline
:Gen=:On*(((:Bat<a)*d)+((:Bat>a)*(((:Bat-c)*-1)+(:Bat-a)/f)/e)) goto 9

Flight control unit

Single lever forward/backward script (Basic YOLOL Chip)

Note: This script assumes you have a center lever bound to FcuForward

Default device fields

:FcuBackward=-:FcuForward goto 1

Material point scanner

Material Point Scanner Script

Note: Additionally to two output panels for "Material" and "Volume" and two buttons to toggle "Active" and "Scan" install a third button and rename "ButtonState" to "Next" and set its "ButtonStyle" to 1.

:Material=:Material :Volume=:Volume
:Index=(:Index+:Next)*(:Index<:ScanResults) :Next=0 goto 1

Continuous Material Point Scanner Script

Note: This is a modified version of the above script

:Material=:Material :Volume=:Volume
:Index=(:Index+:Next)*(:Index<:ScanResults) :Next=1
//pause
:Scan=1
goto 1

Mining laser

Pulsed Mining Lasers

Reduces power consumption by pulsing mining lasers on and off while a button is pressed. The duration of the on and off state are each configurable in number of ticks. (One tick is about 0.2 seconds)

on=1 off=2 :MiningLaserOn=:ButtonState*(t<on) t++ t*=t<(on+off) goto1

Navigation receivers

Receiver Signal Display

Using a display named Nav

if :SignalStrength>0 then goto2 else :Nav="No Signal" goto1 end
:Nav=:Message+"\n"+(1000000-:SignalStrength)/1000+" km" goto1
