This suggestion regards the rocket part revamp rumored to be planned or already started by @Porkjet for the next release. I'm surprisingly content with most of the parts as they are, but there's one in particular that I'd love to see improved. When I run out of things to put on top of a 2.5m liquid booster, the Protective Rocket Nose Cone Mk7 is a natural choice. However, there are some unpleasant things about this model visually. The bottom/outer edge has a flat section and a sharp corner The middle is a flat slope The front is a blunt curved spheroid I don't know enough about aerodynamics to argue that any of these is wrong, per se, but they do make this part look less appealing than it could. The 1.25m range of parts has a much nicer looking nosecone combo, the NCS Adapter with a Small Nose Cone on top. Its sharp point, curved middle, and smooth flush end make it look sleek and fit nicely with the adjacent part, and it would be cool to have a similar option in the 2.5m profile. The ability to fill it with fuel would be nice but not essential. Thanks for your time and consideration!
