KSAMissionCtrl / LocalCtrl.ks
Created May 4, 2016 07:31
A way to control probes in real-time when dealing with RT2 signal delay. Mainly for pointing cameras
// REQUIRED: ActionGroupsExtended mod, which allows action group bindings to circumvent RT2 signal delay
// Can change action groups to whatever works for you, I use AGX to assign them to Numpad keys
set running to true.
set locked to true.
// exit the program
on AG8 { set running to false. }.
// kill rotation
