making meshes with multiple materials.

[MichaelV2.0]

I have recently been working on textures and experimenting with he best way to do this, and in blender a good way to texture is to assign multiple materials to one mesh and texture them independently. now i tried doing this and it worked very well until i put the models into the game and the said mesh is invisible, this leads me to wonder if it is myself at fault or can ksp not use meshes with multiple materials?  

Any help would be much appreciated.

1 Material ID/Channel per mesh object in KSP.

quick way to do it is select faces by material and split to separate mesh object before export to Unity.

cheers.

so have multiple objects with one material each, rather than one object with multiple materials? 

glad to get that sorted, was going round in circles trying to figure it out.
