Methods

Attach(IMyMotorRotor, Boolean)

Attaches a specified nearby rotor/wheel to the stator/suspension block

Declaration
void Attach(IMyMotorRotor rotor, bool updateGroup = true)
Parameters
Type Name Description
IMyMotorRotor rotor

Entity to attach
System.Boolean updateGroup

true to update grid groups
Remarks

The rotor to attach must already be in position before calling this method.

Events

AttachedEntityChanged

When the rotor head is attached or detached from the base

Declaration
event Action<IMyMotorBase> AttachedEntityChanged
Event Type
Type Description
System.Action<IMyMotorBase>
Remarks

This event can be called in three states:

The looking and attached states will both return true for IsAttached. To determine which state it is, use the PendingAttachment property: true means awaiting attachment, false means the rotor is attached.
