Doesnt matter... the files are the same... CKAN just does an automatic install vs a user manually dropping the folders/files where they belong

[Ciaran]

Is there a way to fix this for 1.1?

[Phineas Freak]

@Ciaran if you mean the nodes then yes, with the following Module Manager patches:

@PART[SerCom1m]
{
    @node_stack_top = 0.0, 0.187, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 1
    @node_stack_bottom = 0.0, -0.187, 0.0, 0.0, -1.0, 0.0, 1
}

@PART[SerCom2]
{
    @node_stack_top = 0.0, 0.187, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 2
    @node_stack_bottom = 0.0, -0.187, 0.0, 0.0, -1.0, 0.0, 2
}

What do you mean by the nodes? does that mean the animations will be broken?

[Phineas Freak]

@Ciaran the attachment nodes that are currently broken.

Ah, Okay.

[W_Z]

Small addition to above patch - inner attachment node. Now there is a place to hide a probe core

EDIT: Nevermind, it turns out I had been using version 1.2, not the latest 1.3. My bad.

Is it normal for the compartments to be too small width-wise? The sizes they're supposed to match (and do match in the preview album) are 1.25m and 2.5m, but they look to actually just be 1m and 2m, respectively. I'm a little disappointed.

What's the difference between this and the stock service cargo bay?

They are stackable if you need a longer bay, like the airplane parts

[Bornholio]

I manually fixed this mod for myself by making two new config files  SerCom1mFix.cfg and SerCom2mFix.cfg.  Feel free to use the code if you wish.  It is just an attempt to make it match the standard stock ones.  Kept the lower price and EVA open only, changes the thermal to Stock , adds two cargo protection modules, places all 4 attachment nodes.  was going to add tweakscale code but it is not yet in these. Also these really should show up in Payload tab not structural.
