Adding decouplers to heat shields?


Tassyr

Recommended Posts

So it seems to me to be annoyingly redundant that I have to put a decoupler under a heat shield. Somehow to me it seems that they should have that built in. So I want to try and -make- that myself. Catch is, I haven't got the first clue how.

Would it be possible? Would it screw with the fairing? Where should I look for advice?

If you want to add a decoupler to a heat shield you can add the

	MODULE
{
name = ModuleDecouple
ejectionForce = 250
explosiveNodeID = top
}

looking at stock might be alittle trick on the stages but you can try

@PART[HeatShield1]
{
fx_gasBurst_white = 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, decouple
sound_decoupler_fire = decouple

@MODULE[ModuleJettison]
{
stage = 1 // Not sure this will work
}

MODULE
{
name = ModuleDecouple
ejectionForce = 250
explosiveNodeID = top
stage = 2 // Not sure this will work
}
}
