[answered] How to change COM of a part in the cfg file


Recommended Posts

Subject says it all.  I have a number of parts for which I want to lower the COM a bit.  I can't find any documentation anywhere on how to do this.

Is it possible, and if so, how?

Thanks

edit:  Got the answer from a Twitch viewer:

CoMOffset = 0, 0, -0.5

Note sure what directions those are, but I'm guessing X, Y and Z offset.

Close. KSP uses a different reference frame that uses a X, Z and Y setup instead of the normal cartesian setup (this is valid for anything that accepts 3D coordinates, from CoM and CoL to MODEL position and scale). To save you from some frustration down the road...
