Controlled actions based on throttle percentage

[NotCoach]

Hi all. This is backwards from what most people want, but I am working out some configs for some very powerful engines that use insane amounts of energy, and I want to control energy output based on throttle percentage to conserve resources. Basically I would start and stop different modules within an edited config that change energy output, or start and stop different reactors that have different output rates. I can find no mod that works this way.

You could roll your own thing in kOS, it would appear to have all the tools you need.

Not sure it does. Can't find a command to check throttle level, only the ability to lock the throttle at certain levels.

WHEN SHIP:CONTROL:PILOTMAINTHROTTLE > Condition then
  do some things.

Don't ask me why you can't read THROTTLE, but there you go.

Thank you.

Other ideas:

You can set throttle along with other actions via one action group with Throttle Limit Action Groups. You'd have to use action groups instead of shift/ctrl/X/Z though.

AmpYear Power Manager or the Smart Parts fuel sensor can take actions based on battery level (just attach the fuel sensor to a battery).
