[Resolved] Mod Help Needed: Custom Heat Shield Resource not burning out on reentry.

[Bottle Rocketeer 500]

I am writing a module config, which replaces the stock Ablator resource with a more realistic one. I got it to replace the resource with the new one, but the new one does not ablate upon reentry. Can anyone tell me what code I'm missing?

Edit: @TheRagingIrishman, thanks for explaining the problem. @Benjamin Kerman, the current numbers are just placeholders for later.

The problem is that you are renaming the module from ModuleAblator to ModuleAblativeShielding. You need to leave it as ModuleAblator (but you can still change the resource it uses within)

@TheRagingIrishman hit the nail on the head, but i saw another thing...

All your hearsheild sizes are getting the same amount of ablator. For larger heatsheilds, thats going to burn off a lot faster.
