    I am running a hover platform that has four evenly placed thrusters on pitch , and four on roll , obviously 2 pitch opposes the other 2 pitch and so forth , this is my gate
    <div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain' style='height:200px;white-spacere;overflow:auto'>N@Hover
    I@Pitch Roll
    O@Thrustp1 Thrustp2 Thrustr1 Thrustr2
    If Pitch >= 1 & Pitch <= 180 -> Thrustp1 = (Pitch);
    If Pitch < 1 -> Thrustp1 = 0;
    If Pitch >= 180 -> Thrustp2 = (360 - Pitch);
    If Pitch < 180 -> Thrustp2 = 0;
    If Roll >= 1 & Roll <= 180 -> Thrustr1 = Roll;
    If Roll < 1 -> Thrustr1 = 0;
    If Roll >= 180 -> Thrustr2 = (360 - Roll);
    If Roll < 180 -> Thrustr2 = 0;</div>

    it works pretty well in space , but in planet gravity it wobbles horribly , i was hoping for some suggestions to make it more stable

    for angels stabilizing I use this
    <div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain' style='height:200px;white-spacere;overflow:auto'>N@Delta
    I@Pitch Roll
    O@FL FR BL BR
    P = angnorm($Pitch)
    R = angnorm($Roll)
    PitchM = P*5 + Pitch
    RollM = R*5 + Roll


    FL = -PitchM+RollM
    FR = -PitchM - RollM
    BL = PitchM + RollM
    BR =PitchM - RollM
    </div>

    It gives a quick and stable platform

    im thankful for the quick reply , but would you mind explaining to me what that code does exactly ? i kinda want to learn wire mod , not just copy peoples code

    PS. this also makes my platform spin out of control , so obviously isnt working quite right

    hmm you have to place 4 thrusters under the plate, one in each corner. then you have to figure out what there is "front" and "back" on the plate, so if it&#39;s spin like crazy you have wired the thrusters wrong

    btw: will edit when I have time to explain the code
