Vacuum chamber building

[DancZer]

Hi everyone!

Every time when i build a payload for the rocket i test it multiple times in space with cheats->set orbit. I use it to make sure that everything will works as expected. That's why i noticed that we don't have vacuum chamber at our space center. I think it would be a great extension mod which you can access from the VBA and the SPA with one click. This would add a frame for the pre flight testing.

Features:

• vacuum chamber without air
• static testing
• fall testing(for zero gravity) - you are able to drop things from the top of the chamber and the camera would follow it. During the fall you have zero g and you can test. To avoid crash imagine that things are hanging on cord and it stops the things just before crash.
• vibration test
• (if you have ideas, leave it in the comment)

I have question for the modders, because i'm haven't modded anything to the ksp yet (i did it for other games, like arma). Can i make this kind of mod without serious hacking?

Thank you!

Sounds like a good idea, I haven't much experience with modding KSP so I can't tell how hard it will be to build that but I can give you some link of related mod, may help you :

This one is quite old and I don't think sources are available anymore but it had the ability to modify the gravity inside a part.

And to get you started :
