Base Land Autopilot - landing autopilot baseland

Base Land Autopilot is an autopilot which can land almost every vessel on almost every celistial body with no or tiny athmothphere.

How to use:

- Fist, make sure a target has been selected - Use Ok to select, use MFD Shift + NUM Keys to Navigate throug the menue (EG. Base, Brighton Beach -> 1), confirm with ok. You can also use NAV beacon or Lon / Lat mode.

- Of course, your orbit should pass the aimed landing point as close as possible. However, the autopilot will do some correction if...

Nice. Will this work with the Space shuttle? Or vessels like a Lunar Module?

Space Shuttle: No, it has no Hover Engines for touch down and you would need the ET for braking in Lunar Orbit,... Ok I modified the description 😎

Lunar Module like: Definitely yes, I tested it with the deepstar lander, but I guess to remember there was trouble controlling the AMSO LM by the API but not sure... Maybe it was the NASSP LM...

NASSP's LM won't can't be controlled like this. Thankfully we have Luminary to do that for us 😁.

I just tested it with "deepstar 3 lander" but it's not working yet (however it works with older version). I guess I figured out why: The deepstar 3 lander has thrusters which are shared for pitch, yaw and roll, this cannot be handeled by the ap at the moment.
