Length, Width, Height and Mass Detectors

[Curithwin]

To help with docking could we not have a few blocks in the conditional logic to detect width, length, height and mass (each a separate block). This would be useful for rails into stations so they can sort a vessel into the correct bay without collision problems. The conditional could look for, and be hooked up to, a display with the arrow brackets denoting what is the conditional it is looking for.

I.E. <length> < 100 <activate> RailOne
<length> 100 <activate> RailTwo

The RailOne and RailTwo could be the block you use for putting the label on your Hotbar.

Pretty sure you'd be able to do this with area triggers and a metric crapload of logic haha.

but yes, something like this would be useful

Can you actually use detectors to detect docked entities? This didn't work the last time I tried.

I'll have a check, give me a second lol

UPDATE: No, no they cannot. Which is disappointing.

Lets hope a dev reads this and tags it for creation.
