EXACT STOCK PART SIZES (ALL DIMENSIONS)

[spacetackle]

Hi everyone,

Is there a list of EXACT stock part dimensions? 

I already know the radial values, but I need height in order to make my new mod compatible with stock. Particularly, I need the docking port dimensions and structural fuselage dimensions.

if there isn't a list;

What process can I use to find the dimensions?

Thanks!

have you seen the .mu importers? Might not work if your not using Blender.

Another one by DaSoccerMan - can't find the link.

If you are looking for length just look at the cfg files and compare the distance listed between the top and bottom nodes(assuming the part has top and bottom nodes). Other than that dissecting a part by importing it into blender is a pretty natural thing to do probably faster than google searching for a thread that may not be there.

Thanks for your help,

I use 3DSmax so I wonder if there are tools to import MU files for that. I will have a look. Else I might investigate getting blender.

But I will definitely have a look at the CFG files. Problem is though, the nodes might not be exact as some parts sink into others when attached.

Might this help?

That is hilarious!

It's probably good for approximation but I need 100% accuracy. Like down to 0.0001 level, otherwise parts aren't flush or they don't collide correctly.
