You can also do this for Kerbal Space Program using the kRPC mod: https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/topic/130742-18x-to-112.... It's a much less polished experience, but you get more of the experience of an actual avionics/robotics project doing it this way - multiple sensors that may not necessarily agree with each other (for example, IIRC accelerometers installed at different ends of the ship will register different readings!), you have to be quite a bit more careful when interfacing with engines and may not have access to a simple "go left" control input, you have to deal with whatever nightmare vehicle you built that you need a computer to handle, that kind of thing.
