Tournament is an addon that adds random blocks and items to make Valkyrien Skies more playable such as ship propellors and thrusters.
Ballast
A block that has a redstone adjustable weight
Usage
Power with redstone to increase weight
Config
The on and off weight of the ballast is configurable. The default off weight is 800.0, and the default on weight is 10000.0.
Balloon
Increases lift of the ship.
There are two variants: powered- and unpowered- balloon. The powered balloon has higher lift but requires a redstone signal.
The powered balloon will be 3x stronger when powered than the unpowered balloon.
Chunk Loader
Loads ships when players are not near.
Notice
Experimental feature!
Distance Sensor
Redstone distance sensor that measures the distance to the block in front of it.
The sensor has a default range of 10.0 blocks. If the target is closer, it outputs a higher redstone signal.
Propeller
Redstone-powered ship propeller.
There is a small propeller (designed to look like a torpedo propeller) and a large (3x3) propeller.
Popellers take a bit of time to spin up (reach their maximum force), which makes them unsuitable for steering and similar.
Rope Hook
Allows for one rope connection at a time. Disconnects when powered with redstone. Right click two rope hooks with a rope item to connect them.
Seat
A seat that players can use
Ship Assembler
Assembles ships by finding a structure of connected blocks that are not blacklisted. Activated via right-click or redstone signal.
Notice
There is a limit to how many blocks can be assembled!
Spinner
Applies rotational force around its Y-axis.
Thruster
Redstone-powered, upgradable thruster.
There are two variants. A small thruster and a “normal” thruster.
The thruster is only active when redstone powered. It can be upgraded by right-clicking on it with a thruster upgrade.
Config
The maximum thruster tier is 4 for the normal thruster, and 2 for the small thruster.
The normal thruster has a force of 10000.0 N, which gets multiplied by the tier / level of the thruster.
The small thruster is 0.2x as powerful as the normal thruster => 2000.0 N
Thrusters shut off at a speed of 80.0 m/s
Chunk Loading API
A simple API for loading chunks around the computer
This API is still experimental and might not be functional
vst_chunks.start
start(priority: number, chunkVec: {x: number, z: number})
Starts chunk-loading
Will load all chunks in the rectangle of the computer’s position and the given chunkVec (relative to the computer’s position) every tick
The priority specifies the priority of the chunk-loading. The higher this integer is, the higher the priority
vst_chunks.stop
stop()
vst_chunks.help
help()
Returns a short summary of the API
Components API
A simple API for getting a list of all the thrusters on the current ship
It is recommended to use CC: VS with this API
vst_components.get_thrusters
get_thrusters()
Returns a list of all the thrusters on the current ship
Every element in that list looks similar to this: {pos:{x,y,z}, force:{x,y,z}}
Pulse Gun
Applies a force impulse onto a ship when right-clicked
Ship Deletion Tool
Deletes right-clicked ships
