[AutoMcD] Journeyman

Vanilla, Survival ready. UESC Contest #33 Entry.
*This ship does have an attached "small grid" area in engineering which would not get built from projection. It is for aesthetics only.

The Journeyman is named after skilled trades people, for which it is custom designed for. A useful yet economical solution to a wide range of field jobs.


Features:
-Universal airtight docking ring.
-Small ship hangar with attached engineering workstation.
-3 Crew bunks, Medical facility.
-Custom Wicorel script
-Range finder (aim with front camera)
-Stopping distance indicator
-Automatic leveling when in planetary gravity
-Coast mode toggles front thrusters but keeps others
on dampening to turn.
-GPS logging of ranged objects
-Flight deck for 1~4 ships depending on size
-2 Communication buoys with projectors to rebuild
-Planetary capable with hydrogen thrusters
-8 point defense turrets to keep the critters away
-Jump drive
-Support production ability.

Weighs in at 865 blocks, ~930,000kg.


About dropping the communication buoy in space:
It has no thrusters so important to place at zero speed.
Merge block will eject it at speed.
1. Make sure the gear is set to autolock (blue) then unmerge.
2. Then unlock the gear.
3. If it still has speed then repeat lock/unlock of landing gear.
If it gives too much trouble you can place it at zero speed
with the small craft, which also may take two tries.

On surface of course just drop it and go, it will flop on it's side. Optionally build more solar if full range needed here.

Update
11.20.17:
-Finally fixed the LCD panel rotation.
-Updated Wico and LCD scripts.
-Cut out most of the small ships.

Next update I want to change the bouys to laser antennas.
