Space Engineersgives players the platform to create and implement automated interaction in the game through the use of scripts. There are several scripts players have created and shared on the Steam workshop, these scripts add automated interactions such as automatic inventory sorting, production, LCDs, and automatic docking.They can work in different modes on all planets in the game.

Although scripts are very useful, they can be challenging to maintain and keep updated always. Only gamers that playSpace Engineerson PC and Dedicated servers can use scripts, as consoles do not currently support the use of custom scripts in the game. Players must enable Experimental mode and allow in-game scripts in World Setting to use this feature.
10Rdav’s Guided Missile Script
The Rdav’s Guided Missile Script provides every player with a guidance system that emphasizes ease of use, effectiveness, and performance friendly. It has an interception algorithm that can hit small and fast-accelerating targets.Space Engineerscan use this script for multiplayer engagements and dogfights.
This script has no individual setup for missiles but has integrated instructions designed for all missiles, and it is very easy to install. The Rdav’s Guided Missile script isa useful script for both beginners and seasoned playersofSpace Engineers.
9Rdav’s AI Autominer Script
Players can use the Rdav’s Ai Autominer Script to convert any space vessel into a completely automated mining vessel that caneasily mine and gather ores and other resources. This Autominer Script equips spacecraft with automatic bore mining for gathering resources and automatic drop when the cargo is full.

Players can integrate this script into survival mode. The script also has advanced automatic reconfigurable docking and collision detection capabilities. The Rdav’s AI-Autominer script adds a backup plan for continuous mining or damages to the ship.
8Mouse Aimed Rotor Turret Script
The Mouse Aimed Rotor Turret script can be used by multiple players on the same space vessel at the same time. Players can control rotors using direct mouse inputs from the ship’s cockpit without using any gyroscope or remote control.
Players using this script should note that the vessel’s rotors will mimic the movement of a manually controlled AI turret. This script is important for turret stabilization, multiple elevation rotors, and rest angles. With this script, players can control multiple Mouse Aimed Rotor Turrets with only one code.
7Ship Integrity Monitoring Program Lite (SIMPL)
The Ship Integrity Monitoring Program Lite creates a 2D cross-section of any space vessel that uses this code, highlighting the important systems and faulty or damaged blocks in the vessel. It highlights the subsystems of a space vessel, like power, gyros, and thrust.
This script will, however, take a longer time to scan a larger ship than a smaller one, as it can scan a few blocks per run to reduce the impact on performance. The script has a built-in legend, and the cross-sectional view can be scaled and rotated manually.
6Isy’s Ship Refueler Script
This script configures your batteries to automatically recharge when you connect to a station and disconnects when your battery is full. It also supports refueling oxygen and hydrogen tanks when players dock their spacecraft. The Isy’s Script can activate reactors on a spaceship as a contingency if players overload the ship’s batteries or run low on battery.

This script can also whitelist and blacklist specific charge connectors and trigger timers for battery fill level or docking time. It automatically controls lighting in the ship depending on the current power level and also displays data about the current status of the ship.
5Whip’s Weapon Salvo Script
Whip’s Weapon Salvo Script times the firing of agroup of weapons, players can continuously shoot at enemies rather than fire all weapons simultaneously. The script also allows players to fire the weapons using mouse input; however, the code will handle the firing sequence.
Whip’s Weapon Salvo Script can work with an infinite number of groups of weapons, and the weapons are fired alphabetically. It allows players to customize the rate of fire of the weapons and can work with both vanilla andmod weapons. Players can customize the firing sequence by renaming the ship’s weapons.
4Isy’s Inventory Manager
This inventory manager script sorts a player’s items into the ship’s respective cargo containers. If there are no containers or the containers are full, the script will automatically assign a new container. Isy’s Inventory Manager also has a refinery ore balance system that keeps refineries and arc furnaces working optimally.
This script also refills bottles automatically before storing the bottles, it also cleans the assemblers when they are full.This inventory managerhelps players to maintain oxygen generator ice balance and reactor uranium balance, this script also has an LCD output detailing cargo information and actions it is undertaking.
3Isy’s Solar Alignment Script
This script uses aship’s rotors or gyroscopesto align its solar panels to obtain optimal efficiency. With a single programmable block players canceled and align as many solar towers as possible. It also displays efficiency levels and output on LCD panels in the ship.

The Isy’s Solar Alignment Script supports oxygen farm towers, mod towers, and grouping towers for easier setup. It also programs reactors as an alternative power source. It automatically rotates the panels to a sunrise position at night and stops all rotors when the sun sets.
2Whip’s Auto Door And Airlock Script
The Whip’s Auto Door and Airlock script automatically closes any door that has been fully open for over 3 seconds and hangar doors that have been open for more than 10 seconds. This script is handy as it supports an infinite amount of airlock systems in a vessel.
It selects all the doors on the vessel that have stayed open for a set period and automatically closes the doors. Players can also select which doors and airlocks will automatically close when they use this script, and they can also select the auto-close interval.
1Whip’s Automatic Drop Pod Script
Whip’s Automatic Drop Pod script allows a player to create an automatic drop pod that will land safely when released from a ship. The drop pods can make low-altitude drops by burning off any unwanted lateral velocity, and the drop pods can land safely without being manned.
This script also ensures a smooth landing by compensating for cargo mass and thruster efficiency. Players can use this script for every drop pod on their ship without any complications. It can also keep a ship afloat just above the ground with a little configuration tweak.
