Secondary activation button for thrusters

[Albedo]

Hey,

So what im suggesting is second button to activate a thruster.

Why: well because right now my ship can do left and right turns, but if that feature would be added i could just slide to the left and right.

I tried to make it with logic parts but i failed, because front and back thrusters were too far away, (but i still think its possible)

Let me know what you think

The logic parts are wireless, so distance should not be a problem.

You can achieve this by using an OR-Part

What I do is use Q and E for turning, and A/D for strafing.  I need four thruster groups to make it work; nose left, nose right, and tail left, tail right.

If Q OR A is pressed, activate nose left. (Pushing it to the left, not the thrusters on the left. )

If Q or D is pressed, activate tail right . . . etc.  You will need four groups of thrusters with different inputs, and four OR logic blocks to control them.

You can use the tag system for this already.

e.g. on all of the starboard thrusters, add STRAFE_LEFT tag. Use an IF gate that sends STRAFE_LEFT when Q is pressed.
