Manual Refresh Floor Plan Script Mk1

Description
This is the Manual Refresh version of the Floor Plan Script Mk1. It functions exactly the same, except that the LCD refresh is not automatic. You need to triger the REFRESH command to have the script updates its LCD Panels.


This is a Vanilla Script. NO MODS are required.

Thank you very much for the video SpaceGameManiac!


This script differs from the Floor Plan Script Mk1 in 2 ways:

1) No auto refresh to reduce lag on servers. REFRESH command must be issued to trigger update of LCD Panels.

2) Script is further throttled to only process 50 blocks per tick.

On an i7-7700K CPU, GTX 980 GPU, this script has a initial spike of 5ms to 7ms for Initialization (including JIT tick), and 0.5ms to 2ms for its Refresh Operation (1ms coming from the vanilla LCD update API). During Idle periods, it has negligible CPU consumption. Tested on the Nestorius GD-1 by J.D.Horx.



IMPORTANT Usage Notes

The script stops updating and remains idle once it has completed the initialization, drawing and refreshing of the LCD Panels.

To make the Floor Plan Refresh Itself to show Ship Damage, Trigger Alarms or View Alert Blocks (i.e. Opened Doors, Busy Turrets, Leaking Air Vents etc), you MUST issue the REFRESH command, using any of the follow 3 methods:

=> Use Menu Panel and select "Trigger Script Refresh" option, then click Enter.

=> Go to the Argument field of the PB and enter REFRESH word, then click Run button.

=> Drag the Run action of the PB to your Terminal Taskbar, and enter the Argument with the word REFRESH. Then you can click the taskbar button to trigger a refresh.

in the picture above it shows that you can easily put the system status report, but it only shows the terminal integrity.
