Zeus Industries Environmental Gangways
Hello there,
Ever wanted to be able to use a gangway to board and moor you ship at a dock? Well have I got the answer for you, Simply install the pack and fit your vessels with a hinge connector. Make sure to put it in a logical place otherwise you might have some issues.
Locations:
North Harbour
Holt Town
Tajin Airstrip (Arctic Runway)
Fjwarner Docks / Etrain Terminal
Instructions:
While the operation is simple I'll put this here just in case.
Set the length of the rope on the keypad (This will work with a accuracy of around 0.1m and has a minimum of 5m for the smaller gangways and 14m on the longer ones) the while you could calculate this its not too hard to find through trial and error.
When you are ready press the "activate" button this will cause the gangway to lower and activate the connector at the end next you simply connect. when connected the ropes will automatically extend by an extra 0.5m so that the vessel can still float freely.
The "Auto Retract" Should only be enabled once the vessel has connected with the gangway.
Having the "Auto Retract" switch enabled will make is so that when your vessel disconnects from the gangway the gangway will automatically retract to its stowed position (The minimum length). To use the gangway again you just need to deactivate the "Auto Retract" mode. Careful when you do this though as the gangway will lower again unless it has been deactivated.
Some Extra Notes:
Keep in mind that the gangways can be damaged and that when spawning a vessel in a build zone with a gangway ensure that the gangway is fully retracted to minimise the risk of collision.
It should also be noted that while the hose connections are labelled with resources there is nothing that would cause the connections to be limited to these resources meaning that you can use them for whatever you want.
