Has anyone got a electric sparker mod that creates a electric spark before a shuttle launch in ksp 1.0.5?

[Neil_Kerman]

Well, if you see a space shuttle launch (in reality), you will find that before the engines of the shuttle starts (only engines, not the solid boosters), you can see a small electric spark that ignites the liquid fuel of the shuttle and then the shuttle launches! I am looking for a mod in ksp that makes such spark before the launch starts! May please post a link to download the mod if you find it! 

You can see a video, in YouTube, where you can find the thing about what I am talking about—

This would belong in Add-On Discussions. I'll wave over a moderator, see if they can move it.

RE: OP's question, I'm not sure. If it doesn't exist I doubt it would be that complicated, comparatively speaking.

Also, welcome!

Those are not to light the engines.

Those are the Hydrogen burn off igniters and turned on just before start because unused hydrogen flows out of the main engines just prior to ignition (within each engine), if they didn't ensure that burnt off, you could have a small explosion on start when the lit gases out of the engines combine with the free hydrogen sitting there just prior.

CoolRockets has 'em. And @RW-1 is right.

@RW-1 light the engines? Well, I said, to ignite the engines... Might be I am wrong, but, excuse me if I have grammatical mistakes!

so did he (emphasis mine)

So again, the sparkers are not used to ignite the engines.

And sweet - I had no idea those were part of CoolRockets!

[NathanKell]

@Neil_Kerman Once again, the sparkers do not ignite the engines, and are not electric. They prevent the engines (and everything else) from blowing up when the engine is later ignited (by, presumably, a hypergolic cartridge). They do this by burning the hydrogen that has escaped outside the engines.

@RW-1 what you said, just in longer and hopefully clearer form.

[Neil_Kerman]

@NathanKell oh, then, it was my mistake... But, whatever the sparker does, has anyone ever got such thing in ksp (not in stock)?

[NathanKell]

Yes. As I said, it's in CoolRockets.
