How to stop fuel flow between 2 parts?


OrbitalEscape

Recommended Posts

Is there a way to write in the cfg file to stop fuel flow between 2 parts directly touching each other?  Like if you have 2 fuel tanks stacked on top of each other it acts as one fuel tank but i want them to be separate (the mod I am developing has 2 stages with engines built into the fuel tank but the 1st stage draws fuel from the 2nd)

fuelCrossFeed = false  doesn't apply here because that only stops fuel flow through a part (when there are 3 parts stacked the middle one will stop fuel flow between the top and bottom)

Thanks for any help!

It would be really helpful,if you could show us some pictures.But you can try to use: 

resourceFlowMode = STACK_PRIORITY_SEARCH

in ModuleEngines.Look at rapierEngine.cfg for proper use.

That was the right command to use, thank you!!

I actually used  resourceFlowMode = NO_FLOW

This code wasn't on the KSP wiki CFG page but after searching its in a github page

 

This is the mod I'm working on, as you see in the pictures the engines are built in and I was also making the decoupler built in so there's 3 partszUnquD4.png

To stop flow wouldn't they try

resourceFlowMode = NO_FLOW

or 

resourceFlowMode = STAGE_PRIORITY_FLOW

?

If it has a decoupler then

	MODULE
	{
		name = ModuleToggleCrossfeed
		crossfeedStatus = false
		toggleEditor = true
		toggleFlight = true
	}
