Adjustable landing legs for landing on slopes

Recommended Posts

I'd like to request a mod that adds the functionality of adjusting landing legs after landing to deal with slopes either by new gear that fill all the current niches or (optimally) by appending the ability into any existing gear using it's own retract/extend animation.

Idealy, this would work off of pitch/yaw inputs after the craft has "landed" instead of context menu slider per leg, though that would be acceptable; toggling via context and action group would be greatly appreciated. This would allow one to land on a significantly sloped surface and correct one's pitch to point as is deemed appropriate.

The intent is to assist a situation such as this:

Oops. Mods, could you... I accidently the title. It should have been "[REQUEST] Adjustable landing legs for landing on slopes." Could someone assist somehow?

[MOD - Moved to General Add-on Affairs, as that is where add-on requests are usually made]

I recall there were a couple of add-ons that allowed manual adjustment of individual landing legs.

Here's one I found, but it hasn't been updated since KSP 0.22 - http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/39650-0-21-Shock-absorbing-landing-legs-V1-2-%2805-09-2013%29

I'll see if I can find the other one.

Ah, I was looking for that and didn't see it for some reason. Thank you for the help.

Hmmm. So the idea has floated around before. Is anyone interested in making a new version? I doubt those will work today.

The ones sumghai posted, I'm sure they still work, I used a plugin to stick them to the ground but, I know there not pretty wish, I know how to get other legs to work like that.

EDIT- You could use MagicSmokeIndustries
