Allow block / connector selection for remote control
Currently, it's necessary to build a remote control block oriented directly above the connector, in order for the autopilot to be agnostic to which way the ship is facing.
My request is to add the option to make the remote control reference itself from another block on the same grid, in particular a connector.
This would allow a ship designer to use a GPS waypoint directly above the desired connection point (where the ship's connector sits), and have any ship's autopilot be able to dock there, referenced from the ship's connector, not the ship's remote block.
As it stands, I need to design every ship with a connector and a remote block exactly 6 blocks above the connector's dead-center.
I know there's script solutions to these problems, but built-in AP has gotta pretty damn good (aside from the Patrol issue I noted in a bug report) and this would be a substantial improvement.
I like this feedback
That's not necessary at all, only RC/cockpit orientation matters in ship control, position in the same grid does not.
