P.H.A.D. (personal healing and assistance drone)

[Neonvyper]

This is my first uploaded contraption here....

...it's the PHAD

YouTube - Basic PHAD.wmv

It basically follows you, looks where you look (not precisely could use some help with that) heals relitive to your health and also gives your jumps a significant boost.

I've put lasers and things on before but its not the best at offence, and placing armour on it makes it look a little wierd....

I've included the E2 chip code and Adv_Dup, for the base, things need to be hooked up and if you want i'll post the instructions if you cant

so here's the code: alot of it i find real hard to understand and got alot of help off a few guys (thanks btw, helped me alot)

@name Lookchip
@inputs TargetE:entity X Y Discharge
@outputs Height Vthrust:vector Xo Yo Turn Pitch Roll Fire Jdistance Jmag Heal Healmag Healdist
@persist E:vector O:vector Eroll Bearing Test Test2
interval(20)

#Height of hoverballs in world Z
Height=TargetE:height()+TargetE:pos():z()+45


#Vector thrust allowing it to be controlled above the head
#Vector has proven useless so its in here just for the crack (still using Beacon sensor)
Vthrust=vec(TargetE:pos():x(),TargetE:pos():y(),0)

Xo=-(X+$X*20)
Yo=-(Y+$Y*20)


#looking element
E=(TargetE:eye()-vec(0,0,TargetE:eye():z()) ):normalized()
O=(entity():eye()-vec(0,0,entity():eye():z())):normalized()
Bearing=acos(O:dot(E))*sign(E:dot(entity():right()))
Turn=(Bearing*2)+($Bearing*50)

#Height looking element

Test=-(acos(TargetE:eye():normalized():dot(entity():eye():normalized()))*sign(TargetE:eye():dot(entity():up())))
Pitch=Test+$Test*25

Test2=entity():elevation(TargetE:eye())
#Roll prevention

Eroll=entity():angles():roll()
Roll=Eroll+$Eroll*15

#Jumping
if(TargetE:isCrouch()==1) {Fire=1} else {Fire=0}
Jdistance=200
Jmag=200
#Healing
if(TargetE:health()<100){Heal=1}else{Heal=0}
Healmag=(200/TargetE:health())
Healdist=140

...so yeah.... needs field generators and PHX

Please tell me what you think

Seems quite a handy little drone, though I'm finding the wiring a little hard. E-gate didn't dupe, or? Also see you've written your own vector angles thing for the vertical movement and that's very good. You always learn the most of a method when you try it out yourself.

ty your code helped ALOT, and my own code for vertical plane is a little glitchy, it mkaes it look up and down when turning fast (hardly noticeable and not a major issue)


soo...

inputs:
TagetE goes to target finder
X goes to directional X on beacon sensor ( beacon sensor a little glitched)
Y goes to Y directional
Discharge was an imput to fire a healing burst to all nearby entities but i took out on original drone

outputs:
height->hoverballs

Vthrust->Vector thruster (not needed but i do just incase)
Xo->Vector thruster
Yo->Vector thruster

Turn->side thrusters
Pitch->pitch thrusters (front and back)
Roll->roll thrusters

Fire-> active (on attraction field gen at front(was used as a turret on primary model))
Jdistance->Distance (attraction field)
Jmag->Magnitude (attraction field)

Heal->Active (Recovery field (underside))
Healmag->Magnitude(recovery field(TRY NOT TO MIX UP WITH DIST i did in wrong order))
Healdist->Distance (recovery field)
and that should do it

How did you get it to heal? You must be using something I haven't heard of.

Field Generators

I have just completed my own BHPHD drone, which has antigrav fields, healing, following and offensive capabilities. Stabalisation needs work, though.

[T.King]

What do you use for the healing?

Edit: Oops, didn't read posts before this.

I love your contraption =)

It inspired me to make another contraption loosly based on your idea, I will probably post it this evening. Don't worry, it isn't another rip of your project.
