MK2 Cockpit - Allow change of control orientation

[schwank]

Hello

Can you please allow for a change of control orientation in the mk2 cockpit? I made something cool that uses this as a top piece and it would be nice to not have to clip in a probe core to get the proper control point.

Thanks!

You can also use docking ports

I agree more parts could do with a switchable control orientation out of the box.

 

That said, Squad/Parts/Command/probeRoverBody_v2/probeRoverBody_v2.cfg for example has this:

	MODULE
	{
		name = ModuleCommand

        [...snip...]

        CONTROLPOINT
		{
			name = up
			displayName = #autoLOC_6011000 //#autoLOC_6011000 = Up
			orientation = -90,0,0
		}
		CONTROLPOINT
		{
			name = reverse
			displayName = #autoLOC_6011004 //#autoLOC_6011004 = Reversed
			orientation = 0,0,180
		}
	}

Might serve as inspiration for someone writing ModuleManager patches.
