[idea] Electronics lab building and equipment bay

'ey. Here's an idea.

new building: Control systems lab.

New part: Vehicle control system chassis. surf attach, 62cm, universal storage.

Function: assemble vehicle control systems using idealized versions of typical electronics. The raw control box will have wires that will supply the box with information about the state of the vehicle, and outputs can be mapped to all of the vehicle contorls.

Player would select parts from a catalog and schematic out a control system.

suggested parts:

Resistor

LM741 (basic implementation of ideal op-amp)

555 sub-circuit (basic programmable timer)

8052 programmable microcontroller

possible:

capacitor

inductor.

Not feasible:

transistor

diode

Basic use case:

"If altitude less than 1km, and speed > 100m/sec, fire retro rockets".

The box should also be KAS serviceable during EVA to make adjustments/repairs/upgrades.

I wish I could find a c# IDE for Gentoo Linux. =\
