Description:
Simply get your Cyclops close enough to the Cyclops Docking Hatch base piece (default range is 13 meters) and the autopilot mode will take control of the Cyclops for you to dock it. When the Cyclops is docked, its powercells will charge up if the base has some energy.
To undock your Cyclops, simply start the engine and press exit key (E by default).
If your Cyclops gets stuck for more than 30 seconds during docking or undocking animations you can press exit key 3 times to abort.
This mod represent two new proof of concepts, as it implements:
=> the first modded base piece for Subnautica, proving that custom base pieces are possible.
=> the first autopilot mode for the Cyclops, proving that this submarine movements can be scripted.


Configuration:
Most settings can be changed directly from the settings menu while in game (default key to open the menu is F7). Here's the list of what you can configure:
- Auto docking trigger range (13 meters by default).
- Manual or automatic docking (automatic by default).
- Start docking key (letter "o" by default, only works when manual docking is enabled).
- Powercells charge speed (about 1% every 30 seconds by default).
- Ladder tint (no tint by default). If you modify the ladder tint while in game, you need to trigger visual refresh of your base to see the new tint (for example deconstruct/reconstruct a window).
- Default signs configuration (yellow with background by default). You can also modify the style of each sign manually (they will keep their style configuration upon game save/restart).

You can also change the settings from the Config text file (by default it is located inside folder "[...]/Subnautica/BepInEx/plugins/CyclopsDockingMod"). This Config text file also contains the following additional settings:
- Mod settings key (Allows you to modify the keyboard key that is used to open mod settings. By default it's F7).
- Recipe (Allows to modify required ingredients to build the Cyclops Docking Hatch base piece).
- Enable autopilot feature (Allows you to enable or disable the autopilot feature).
- Language strings (Allows to change the language of this mod).

How to create your autopilot routes:
1) Your cyclops needs to be docked to a Cyclops Docking Hatch base piece to start recording a new route, let's call it the "Start Base Piece".
2) Take Cyclops steering wheel in your hand if it is not already (so that the Cyclops HUD shows up), then select "New route" using the arrows button.
3) Now click on the steering wheel button to start recording the route (it will automatically undock your Cyclops and start recording).
4) You go to where you want your route to end, it can be a Cyclops Docking Hatch or just a random location:
  • If you want your route to end at a random location, click the steering wheel button again to stop recording.
  • If you want your route to end on a Cyclops Docking Hatch you just need to dock on it (recording will stop automatically).
5) Now the next time your Cyclops will be on the Start Base Piece, you will be able to select your route using the arrows button and click on the steering wheel button to start autopilot mode.
