This is honestly one of the GREATEST mods every created! I've been looking for a trailer hitch mod for years! How about adding a small Nuclear Reactor Module too??

@UnusualAttitude Thanks for the info and posted edited!

Where can I find the parts that you used for Quissac ?

Ill need to give the docking ports a try but i dont think they would transfer steering information via the conection to the aft trailer if you had a tug and trailer with all wheel steering.

Worked a charm thanks!

Is it possible to link the vehicles into a train? Is there some sort of towbar/hitch part available or some sort of coupling that we could use if we wanted to build something similar to the soviet mobile nuclear reactor see in this thread?

Does EPL and MKS hide the ship recycle bin?

Im having a small issue in KSP 1.0 where i can select items of this mod but i cant attach them to anything. Then the games seems to crash and selects everything in the VAB at once which i cant deselect. Any ideas?

This is an amazing mod. I really hope it is updated for 1.0. Probably the most usefull mod made yet. Used with the USI colony mods its perfect.

Hmm maybe I should design one. I wonder if such a thing would be possible?, Something along the lines of having the draw bar and articulated joint as part of the one item and then a micro docking port (invisible) at the trailer end witch would attach to another micro docking port on the trailer. These would then be permanently integrated on the back of the vehicles/trailers. Ultimately Id be looking to the wheels of the trailing vehicle to having steering to like in the Modular Multi Wheels pack. Done a bit of 3d modelling before however the tow bar would need some sort of dll im assuming, which I know nothing about. The whole idea is to have a tractor unit with various different trailers for mining, comms etc forming a road train which all share a common chassis with different payload packages on top e.g. tanks, drill bits etc. This would cut down on the part size and allow easy deployment by skycrane or maybe some kind of custom lander can like the recon part of the HOME system.

Tried KAS, although its a good system towed vehicles have a tendency to oscillate behind the tractor unit leading to an unstable vehicle. Having a rigid tow bar would stop this. The unpowered hinge is great for this but as stated before can only be connected in the assembly buildings.

Is there such a thing as a tow bar mod enabling vehicles to be connected on the surface? I'm aware of a hinge in the Modular Multi Wheels plugin but that requires to be pre assembled in the VAB.

Checked that mod out. Nothing there.
