I was googling to see if there is any solution to the part parenting problem, and this post popped up. Since KSP is heading toward it's first full version, I'd just like to put my vote in for implementing something like this at some point as well, as to me it's pretty weird that you can't, for example, attach two radial decouplers to a rocket for enhanced stability, as well as a great number of other issues related to the part parenting problem. While I'm guessing that it would be quite difficult to refactor the part parenting system at this stage in the game, it'd certainly be nice to have something like this in place. That said, is anyone aware of any mods that allow you to weld parts together to get around this. I am aware of Ubiozor Welding, which seems to have been discontinued, and possibly the Lazor mod which seems to also allow welding. But is there any mod that allows you to weld parts in the editor itself (VAB/SPH)?
