[Java] Depart - Remove parts from spacecraft in from KSP save files

[Nicate]

I ran into an issue where one of my spacecraft had an erroneous part left on it, causing it to randomly explode due to clipping, so I wrote a small tool to address the issue. Seeing as how I've seen some people ask around about this, here it is. I imagine it might also be useful for mods and version mismatches and whatnot. So here goes. I hope I have correctly satisfied the forum and add-on rules.

Description

Depart provides the ability to remove a part from a vessel in a KSP save file. Just open a save file, select the part you wish to remove, and click the button. You can use the name and the attributes of a part to search for the one you want to remove.

Installation

1. Extract the contents of the ZIP file anywhere.
   
2. Start Depart by double clicking the JAR file.
   

Requirements

Depart requires the Java Runtime Environment (JRE), version 7 or higher.

Nice! Alternative in-game options include KIS and Kaboom!, but this would be great for when you can't access the vessel to remove the part in the first place (such as clipping explosions, or having removed the mod, or the mod updated and no longer includes the part).

Yep! This is basically in lieu of save file editing, since you have to do a lot of additional editing if you remove parts.

This seems like a very useful mod!

 

Link to DL seems to be dead...

 

Will it still work with the latest version of KSP?

 

Thanks!
