Shielded Docking Ports Attachable In VAB/SPH

[KerbalRocket]

i was wondering if there were and mods out there to allow you to attach shielded docking ports in the VAB/SPH or this could become a feature of the stock game?

There is good news, and bad news.

The good news is that the mod "Tweakable Everything" does exactly what you are wanting. You can use it to attach nodes to shielded docking ports in the editor - along with lots of other adjustments that will become available.

The bad news is that it hasn't been updated to be compatible with the 1.6 update yet, but give it time.

Most mods for 1.4 and 1.5 work in 1.6 too. Infact most mods made for 1,4 work with 1.5 and 1.6

I haven't tested Tweakable Everything on 1.6 yet so I don't know. The mod hooks into the right click menu to gain access to part actions, and since a lot of these menu options changed in the background with the introduction of part variants, I have a feeling that it will have some problems here and there.

Maybe, although mods like tweakscale which use the m2 menu still work. But yeah, testing it is the best way to find out.

I want this too. There have been several threads with many people asking for this over the years. You can dock things to it outside the VAB so there's no reason I can see why I can't do it in the VAB also.
