How can I add part instances to a vessel instance?

[TheLunaticist]

I'm trying to make a plugin that allows you to build ships midflight, but I'm having trouble adding parts to existing ships.

I have tried adding "Part" instances to the "vessel.parts" list, but I lack something to fill the "Part" constructors with.

How should I go about adding new parts to a vessel midflight?

why not use KAS/KIS? even MKS and EL now allow you to add parts while in flight.

That might be true, but as I stated I want to write a plugin myself and what I want to do is not doable with the mods you suggested.

then I would look at the code for EL / MKS.
