Ok, Bit of a challenging program I need. I've got a big faction on a smp Yogcraft server, but I am ambitious, and wanna control the server's map. To do so, not only am I building a player army on there, I've also constructed the first of many airships im going to use to bomb the enemies I intend to conquer. however, I don't have anyone to program the ships the way I would most desire to have them. Ideally, I not only want the obvious control options of "Forward 20" or the like, but also to be able to put in go to co-ords and have the airship travel, at high altitude, to the desired coordinates, descending to the input Y coordinate at the end of the trip.
this is where things get outside the range of what my faction members can achieve, because I also want to hook up a GPS on the airships, not only to serve the travel by coordinates function, but to also relay those coordinates realtime to a central command center I've constructed, and be displayed on a monitor I've got set up in the wall.
to lump another layer of complexity in, I also want to be able to either remotely control these airships using the wireless connection to input GPS coordinates, but to also input a "return to base" type of command that would automatically pilot the airship into a designated docking position in the base I've constructed to facilitate my fleet.
Now, while I'd love to have all this functionality and more, I'm only desperately in need of the "Forwards 20" type commands, GPS commands, and the GPS tracking. Anything else can be entirely optional, though it'd be appreciated. I'll make a short list below of what I NEED and what I WANT for reference though, if anyone's nice enough to take this on.
NEEDS:
"Forwards/backwards/up/down/left/right [Distance]" Commands
Go To [X,Y,Z] Coords commands
GPS tracking
Optionally, Configurable extra commands for Bomb bay doors, weapons triggers, and maybe one or two extra functions. the weapons triggers are the only necessity of these.
WANT
Remote access to selected Airships, and remote control via GPS commands
An easy to add to list of GPS coordinates and names I can simply select a destination from
The GPS tracker to run on startup.

i am currently working on EXACTLY what you wanted. I already have the Airship programmed but now i am working on the other features... i am also planning on writing a turtle program that will build the engine for you so all you have to do is turn on the modems and build the ship around it.
