Can't see drag values in VAB/SPH

[amorymeltzer]

I swear I'm losing my mind! I saw them there in 1.0.0, but now (1.0.2) I never see the drag values. Did I misclick an option in the settings? It's teh same for any game option (sand, science, career), various difficulties, and all levels of buildings.

The published drag values became meaningless in 1.0. It looks like they have been removed. The new aero model does not use those drag values in any way.

RexKramer is 100% right. Those were the drag values used by the old aero model, and are not in use by KSP v1.0+

Thanks for the quick reply you two! I must have really read the release notes wrong. Is there no in-game way to tell how draggy certain parts will feel? Or am I just not getting it?

[Claw]

Parts are now draggy based on how they look. So if something looks pointy or rounded (like a nosecone), then it probably has less drag than something blunt (like a fuel tank end).
