Hooray for part balance!

Limitations are what makes engineering interesting.

I'm all for removing the side doors on the other cabin's to bring them into line with this balancing concept.

I think a realistic engineering approach would be to have both, where the tradeoff exists but you still have the option to go with the heavier cabin which has a hatch.  If I have time, I'll learn to make mods (I'm a C# developer) and add that mod  :)

This wasn't a thing when this was first posted, but this little fella comes in handy for situations like this:

I agree. That's the reason I made this:

@Tonka Crash , I also use that Add'On (Mk1-Cabin-Hatch), but for spaceships. Airplanes and crewed rovers doesn't work very well with this.

May I offer a suggestion? Why not have a small fuselage part that's 1.25m, that contains ONE hatch with a ladder that can be extended/retracted under the hatch. [cut my me]

Just an idea...

Something like this?
