A More realistic booster flamout mod ?

[k0spwn]

Stock and Modded boosters in game flamout instantly with no effect or anything... It would be cool to have a flamout effect on the boosters or they continue running for 5 seconds while the thrust decrease like the real ones, and for real ones, I mean like those :

This feature is actually like stock now.

You can create your own thrust curves in the part.cfg. You only need to add a

"useThrustCurve = True" in the ModuleEngine(sFX) partmodule, and then add a thrust curve under it, same like an atmosphere Curve.

"

key = 1 1 // full tanks, full thrust

key = 0.5 1 // half full tanks, full thrust

key = 0.1 0.7 // 10% fuel, 70% thrust

key = 0 0.1 // 0% fuel, 10% thrust

"

 

Looks like this in the cfg:

MODULE
    {
        name = ModuleEnginesFX
        thrustVectorTransformName = thrustTransform
        engineID = GEM-40
        powerEffectName = running_closed
        throttleLocked = True
        exhaustDamage = True
        ignitionThreshold = 0.1
        minThrust = 0
        maxThrust = 175
        heatProduction = 350
        useEngineResponseTime = True
        engineAccelerationSpeed = 8.0
        allowShutdown = False
        fxOffset = 0, 0, 0.35
        EngineType = SolidBooster
        exhaustDamageDistanceOffset = 0.8
        useThrustCurve = True
        PROPELLANT
        {
            name = SolidFuel
            ratio = 1.0
            DrawGauge = True
        }
        atmosphereCurve
        {
            key = 0 225
            key = 1 140
            key = 7 0.001
        }
        thrustCurve
        {
            key = 1 0.8
            key = 0.95 1
            key = 0.3 1
            key = 0.1 0.35
            key = 0.05 0.35
            key = 0 0.1
        }
    }

 

Bolt-written stuff is things you need to add.

Thanks a lot !!! This is exactly what I needed ! I'm going to try this on stock part, then I'm going to try making it a module manager patch ! 

 

But thanks a lot !
