![]() As far as I can tell this animation only occurs when idle not during ground or flight movement. If you are hovering on the ground the vertical prop is retracted and it will not touch down in hover mode unless it stalls out, when it does it slams down and you try to crank the engine twice and you're hovering again. I can't confirm that it takes 350 to make, but it only seems logical that it becomes available at 350 to make and fly as the epic version does at 375. ![]() The rare version listed here does not have any frills like paint or the hula girl on the dash. This uses the defaults command to directly modify the system preferences.Comment by darkfanboyNote, the mount with the flames on it is actually the epic version. I could also unmount the same share when I leave the Home context.Ī shell script is needed to configure the requirement for a password when unlocking OS X. That full path can be found via Get Info from the right-click context menu on the share. Mounting or dismounting a remote share requires the full path to that share. Mounting a remote share or enabling/disabling the screen lock are a little more nuanced. Disable Time Machine (without access to the NAS, there’s little use in Time Machine running) Action DetailsĬontrolPlane provides a plethora of actions and enabling or disabling Time Machine is straight forward.Enable the requirement to enter a password when the desktop is locked.When the Secure context is enabled, the follow actions take place: Mounting a share (or shares) on the NAS.Disable the requirement to enter my password when opening the lid or after a screensaver fires (System Preferences / Security & Privacy / General).When the laptop connects to my home WiFi, the following actions will take place: Enabling Actionsįor each Context I’ve enabled various actions. I could use various other evidence sources however I’ve found that a WiFi connection is the simplest approach for my needs. 100% confidence is enabled on this rule because I know it’s highly unlikely that I’ll be connected to the same SSID and MAC address at any other location. To define the Home context, I’ve used the ‘WiFi BSSID’ rule to define that if the MacBook has a connection to my home router, then I must be at home. Rules are applied to Home and Mobile, whilst Secure has no rules applied and thus applies to any location that isn’t Home or Mobile. I’ve created three Contexts - Home, Mobile (for use with a MiFi-style device) and Secure. I’ve enabled the display of the context name in the menu bar so that I can easily see which context the laptop is in:Ĭreate a Context with a name, Evidence Sources (properties of a location, physical configuration, peripherals, time of day etc) and Rules (these define evidence sources that describe the context). This is important because I want the secure actions firing by default with other actions only firing if I connect to a specific context (such as Home). Here I’ve also set a default context (Secure). Launch ControlPlane and enable ‘Start ControlPlane at login’ (if it’s not running, actions won’t fire). Installing ControlPlaneĭownloading and installing ControlPlane is very simple - download the disk image (DMG file) and drag ControlPlane to your Applications folder. ![]() So here’s how I’m using ControlPlane to make life easier by performing tasks as I move between home and work (or any other locations). With this tool I can define different contexts and then enable certain actions based on those contexts. I’m not that keen on writing shell scripts in OS X to automate the process, so I was impressed to come across ControlPlane. Manually mounting remote shares or changing security settings for each locations is repetitive and time consuming. Work is a very different context - I don’t have access to the NAS and I’m in a public location where I should be locking the desktop when it’s not in use. home) and non-secure or public locations (including the office).Įach location therefore, has different contexts - at home I might connect to my Synology NAS and I don’t need to lock the laptop when I walk away from it. It goes with me almost everywhere, so invariably I am moving between secure (e.g. I currently use a MacBook Pro for my personal and work use every day - it’s my primary computing device.
