[0.23.x] misc "Mk2" parts: set 2 four new nose cones 1.0

[Justin Kerbice]

Hello all plane fans,

This is a first set of various Mk2 shaped parts:

inline air intakes

download 0.9

They work on both 0.23 and 0.23.5 KSP releases but not the same way (see below).

These parts are not as perfect as I want them to be but they are still no perfectly working.

Current known issues:

- textures doesn't not match perfectly right now (on A & B parts)

- there is no normal/bump map

- node_attach need to be tweaked a bit I think

- (0.23/0.23.5) The SPH symmetry bug of some couplers occurred with the C part, for some reason, you can't attach two (cylindrical) parts with symmetry on, but one part at a time.

It's works well on the VAB ! Squad create so funny issues, unbelievable . It also happened with spaceplane plus bi-coupler for example.

-(0.23) Parts (A mostly) have a noticeable gap when using stock parts, especially mk1-mk2 and mk2-mk3 adapters, it's an issue of the stock parts (nodes not located in the right place), ask for Squad for a fix.

-0.23.5 rebalance project by stupid_chris with upper nodes location make them completely messy with these parts, unfortunately those "balanced" parts CANNOT BE USE ! Use Spaceplane Plus instead. Taverio's Pizza and Aerospace mod use this rebalanced parts, so this apply too.

Planed features:

- alternate texture without heat-shield (irrelevant for air planes)

- use of Spaceplane Plus textures

4 new nose cones

For now, with only a dark grey colour scheme, more to come (stock mk2 colour scheme, and maybe others).

Ah, finally released. It looks great!

yes ! by the way 0.9 version means I'll not left it as-is and fix remaining issues when I can.

Next set will be nose cones or misc parts.

A small craft as example:

The claw as nose was just a crazy idea, the rest of the craft can be use as a reliable base, as it is very easy to fly.
