Side view parts images?

[AndyChilly]

My apologies if this has already been asked. but I'm looking for a full list of parts but at a side view that are the correct proportion to each other.

I would love to be able to come up with design ideas at times when I cant play it. like at work  

 

Anyone know of anything like this about?

The only thing I use is this site:

http://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Parts

They aren't side views, but you can design things with it roughly. If you want a side view of every part, you have to draw/screen them yourself.

Yeah I Guess I will have to screenshot them myself as the wiki is no good to me, i was side shots as the angled shots are inconsistent

Yup, but keep in mind you'll never have a real 2d screenshot, in the VAB and SPH is always a perspective view. This means that the longer/bigger parts will have a deformed shape.

Good point. I was planning on just having some girders and then keeping the camera in the same position take off and put on a new part to keepthe deformation to a minimum and then screenshot. would take forever though. so i'm already going off the idea  shame there isn't something out there "Kerbal Space Procrastination" so I don't have to work

Yes indeed,

But when I'm designing a ship, I can't do it without KSP, except for planes.

Rocket designs are mostly done with a lookout on the Delta-V and TWR

Yeah I imagine. Im an xbox user so I dont have the help of Delta-v calculators. I was more interested in designing vehicles and then making them on KSP at a later date and then tweaking from there to make them flyable. My issue is I don't get much time on KSP as ive got a big family. so when I do I end up rushing my crafts and then forgetting something vital. So was looking for someway or getting an idea together during a lunch break at work to save me some time. Sounds like there isnt anything out there for me though. thanks anyway!

You're welcome 

I suggest to roughly sketch your design, since you can't test them at the same time, it would be wise to keep the 'out-of-ksp-sketching' just rough and quick. Just write down/learn the stats of parts and you'll be ok I think

I think the Kronal Vessel Viewer mod can do true non-perspective side views of parts and complete craft, but I'm not sure whether it is up to date for recent versions of KSP.

Seconding for Kronal Vessel Viewer. KKV works in 1.1.3. not sure about 1.2.
