KAS Support

Hello internet, I was just wondering if anyone knew how to edit parts and make them grab-bable(??) with the KAS mod. See i have the Tarsier tech installed and would love to have the HDD drives capable of being in a container and being picked up.

i've never done this myself, so take this with a grain of salt...

but you should check out the addModule.cfg file in the GameData/KAS directory. Open it up in an editor and have a look around. you'll see lots of GRAB {} sections that seem to modify stock parts and make them "grabable". they look like this:

GRAB

{

stockPartName = linearRcs

evaPartPos = (0.0, 0.00, -0.21)

evaPartDir = (0,0,-1)

dropAtGroundPos = false

dropPartPos = (0.0, -0.1, -0.65)

dropPartRot = (0.0, 90.0, 0.0)

addPartMass = true

storable = true

storedSize = 4

attachOnPart = True

attachOnEva = False

attachOnStatic = False

attachSendMsgOnly = False

}

i would start and copy one of those entries, change the stockPartName to one of your modded parts and see what happens.

regards

Hi,

I recently started a project to add KAS options to a bunch of small parts from other mods. Check it out here: https://github.com/dankeller/KAS-Extensions

I have not added anything for Tarsier, but feel free to fork the project on github and submit your settings to share!

basically you can make a part grabable by putting this in the config of the part

MODULE
	{
		name = KASModuleGrab
		evaPartPos = (0.0, 0.0, -0.15)
		evaPartDir = (0,0,-1)
		storable = true	
		storedSize = 4
		attachOnPart = True
		attachOnEva = False
		attachOnStatic = True
	}
